Answer:
In primary succession there is no presence of soil or the soil cannot support life in secondary succession there is a presence of soil in which it can support life
Explanation:
Answer:
In an ancestral elm species, mutations gave rise to the phenotypic trait "winged-seeds". Subsequently, selection favored elm plants with winged-seeds that diverged over time to become a separate species
Explanation:
A mutation is a genetic change in the DNA sequence. In general, mutations have a negative impact on the fitness of the individual (i.e., mutations are generally deleterious) and therefore they disappear from the population. However, there are situations where mutations are beneficial and confer an adaptive advantage, thereby increasing their frequency in the population. In this case, mutations associated with the formation of winged-seeds conferred an adaptive advantage (i.e., higher seed dispersal capacity) to individuals who had this phenotypic trait, thereby these individuals had more chances to reproduce and pass their genes to the next generation. Eventually, Elm plants with winged-seeds accumulated sufficient genetic differences to prevent interbreeding, leading to the formation of a separate species.
b is the right answer because we breathe oxygen and when we breathe out we let out carbon dioxide
Answer:
The number of habitats falls below a critical level.
Explanation:
The possible reason for extinction is that the number of habitats falls below a critical level. This makes it impossible for organisms to survive.
- A habitat is the dwelling place of living organism in an ecosystem.
- The resources and other materials that ensures the survival of an organism are made available in the habitat.
- When a habitat begins to thin out and can no longer support organisms, then extinction will ensue.
