Describe how environmental changes can cause species to become extinct.

1 answer:

5 0

Many species, or at least the region they live in, need a relatively narrow set of environmental criteria to be true in order to survive. For example, if an alligator in the Florida wetlands experiences a long-term drought, the plants that the smaller animals eat can dry up and those animals die. Then the alligators have no animals to eat so they could die. If this was to happen over a long period of time and on a worldwide scale, a species could become extinct.

I hope that helps.

Theodor W. Engelmann illuminated a filament of algae with light that passed through a prism, thus exposing different segments of

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-D

Explanation:

The aerotaxis movement experiment performed by the Theodor W. Engelmann played an important role in understanding the photosynthesis.

The experiment was performed on the Spirogyra filamentous algae which were exposed to a different wavelength of light.

The other aerobic bacteria present in the test tubes started moving and accumulated near the two regions of the Spirogyra where they were exposed to the blue and red light of the VIBGYOR.

The region receiving red and blue light produced more oxygen through photosynthesis which indicated that these two wavelengths of the light are more active for photosynthesis than any other wavelengths.

Thus, option-D is the correct answer.
