<h2>Anterior-posterior orientation</h2>

Explanation:

Flatworms have an anterior-posterior orientation and as a result more coordinated and deliberate movement is established  

  • Flatworms also called Platyhelminthes are a phylum of relatively simple soft-bodied invertebrate animals
  • They are the largest phylum of acoelomates and are found in marine,freshwater and even in some damp terrestrial environments
  • Movement in some flatworms is controlled by longitudinal,circular and oblique layers of muscle
  • Flatworms anterior end helps in moving towards their food while the posterior end ensures that these organisms walk away from irritants

In 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt created the Grand Canyon National Game Preserve on the Kaibab Plateau in northern Arizona.
hram777 [196]

Answer: increased the carrying capacity for the Kaibab deer

Explanation: The removal of livestock means more food as grass is available for the Kaibab deer to feed on. In the same vein, the nonexistence of predators would allow for proliferated growth which in turn would increase the number of deer population on the plateau. What this means is that the Preserve is now able to carry as much deer population as it could going forward thereby increasing the carrying capacity for the Kaibab deer which was evident by the increasing figures on the years the deer numbers were estimated.
