It has been estimated that ‘slash and burn’ agriculture is
used by up to 500 million people worldwide. The term describes the practice of
cutting and/or burning of natural vegetation for conversion into agricultural
fields. Besides the disastrous implications for forest ecosystems, the practice
can impact the atmosphere in two main ways if burning is implemented. Firstly
by causing air pollution from the smoke, and secondly by increasing carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere, which is a greenhouse gas and a driver of climate
change. Living trees also remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during
photosynthesis, and the process of ‘slash and burn’ effectively removes their
carbon capturing contributions to ameliorating climate change.

Explanation:
Started with the same two groups: Plants and Animals. ... This is called a binomial naming system and it has two parts. The first part of the species name identifies the genus to which the species belongs; the second part identifies the species within the genus.
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. Directional selection can be distinguished from disruptive selection by the elimination of extreme variations of traits. Directional selection is a natural selection where an extreme phenotype is favored than others.
Both biome and <span>ecoregion </span>are ecological terms. Biome refers to a major regional group of plant and animal communities adapted to the natural environment. Biome can be of two types: terrestrial(land) andaquatic(water). <span>Ecoregion, </span>which is an abbreviated form of ''ecological region', refers to a smaller class. Each <span>biome </span>consists of severalecoregions, an ecoregion(also called bioregion) covering a realm of land/water having geographically distinctive communities, sharing the same envoronmental conditions and ecological dynamics.
Yes, an ecoregion does consist of different ecologically distinctive communities and species.
