<h3>ANSWER:</h3>

               In case of plants there is a process called PHOTOSYNTHESIS occurs. A photosynthesis is a process in which the carbon and water involves and as a result oxygen plus glucose forms. And because of that plants cause the atmospheric Carbon dioxide decreases as they use the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The correct option is B) a pattern of biological functioning that occurs on a 24-hour cycle.

Explanation:

Biological rhythm is defined as the regular variation of an organic function related to the course of time, circadian biological phenomena (around the day), are those with a period of approximately 24 hours.

Circadian rhythms are physical, mental and behavioral changes that follow a daily cycle (the biological rhythm), and that respond primarily to light and darkness in an organism's environment. This cycle close to 24 hours, allows to recognize the sleep-wake phenomena and their homeostatic action, in the systemic processes of every living being. The circadian system is composed of photoreceptors, pacemakers and efferent pathways that allow a regular functioning of the sleep and wakeful state.

Random orientation of homologous pairs of chromosomes during meiosis I results in alternative arrangements that contribute to ge
iogann1982 [59]

Random orientation of homologous pairs of chromosomes during meiosis I results in alternative arrangements that contribute to genetic variation in offspring. This is called "independent assortment".

<u>Explanation:</u>

The sets of homologous chromosomes, also recognized as bivalents or tetrads, align along the metaphase plate in a random order in metaphase I of meiosis I. Another way for cells to incorporate genetic variation is by spontaneous orientation. Mendel's independent assortment law stipulates that, independently of one another, the alleles of two or more different genes are sorted into gamets.

In other terms, for one gene, the allele that a gamete receives does not affect the allele that is obtained for another.Genetic recombination (by random segregation) and crossing over during meiosis creates daughter cells each containing different combinations of maternally and paternally coded genes.

Margaret [11]

Complete question:

A hypothetical bat species (species 1) lives in a city. Another hypothetical bat species (species 2) established a population in the same city after a number of individuals escaped from a zoo. In isolation, each species prefers to roost in buildings that are three or more stories tall. After species 2 became established in the city, species 1 began roosting only in buildings less than three stories tall, whereas species 2 roosted in buildings three or more stories tall. Observers determined that the bright streetlights at ground level had previously deterred most bats from roosting in shorter buildings. Over many generations of existing in the same city with species 2, species 1 showed changes in eye size and retina structure. Complete the following statements about the two bat species.

  1. Roosting areas in buildings of any height are the _________ of species 1.
  2. Roosting areas in buildings of any height are the _________________ of both bat species.
  3. ____________ between the two bat species occurs because both species prefer the same roosting areas.
  4. In parts of the city with only tall buildings (over two stories), __________ of species 1 may occur.
  5. Roosting areas in buildings that are one to two stories tall are the __________ of species 1 when species 2 is present.

a. fundamental niche

b. realized niche

c. character displacement

d. intraspecific competition

e. interspecific competition

f. (-\-)

g. resource partitioning

h. competitive exclusion

Answer:

  1. Roosting areas in buildings of any height are the fundamental niche of species 1.
  2. Roosting areas in buildings of any height are the fundamental niche of both bat species.
  3. Interspecific competition between the two bat species occurs because both species prefer the same roosting areas.
  4. In parts of the city with only tall buildings (over two stories), competitive exclusion of species 1 may occur.
  5. Roosting areas in buildings that are one to two stories tall are the realized niche of species 1 when species 2 is present.

Explanation:

  • The ecological niche is the synthesis of all the environmental factors that influence the growth, survival, and reproduction of species. These factors also include the interaction between species.  
  • The fundamental niche refers only to environmental conditions in which a species can live and survive <u>in the absence</u> of any interaction with other species.
  • The realized niche refers to the restricted conditions in which a species can live and survive as a result of environmental physic characteristics and the interaction with other species.
  • Interspecific competition refers to the interaction between two or more species that use the same fundamental niche. These species compete for the same resources like food, shelter, or water, among many others. Eventually one of the species dominates and the other is displaced.  
  • Competitive exclusion refers to the exclusion of the inferior competitor by the superior competitor when there is not habitat differentiation, and both species can not share the same niche. In this case, the effective niche of the dominant species completely occupies the fundamental niche of the inferior competitor.  
  • Resources partitioning refers to one dominant species monopolizing the resources, and the other inferior species use other resources -partially or completely -, migrate or get extinguished.

<em>A way in which species can divide resources is by living in different habitat areas. These species might eat the same food, and can roost in different places within the habitat. This resource partitioning and differentiation in the function of their physical location allows both species to coexist more effectively. </em>  

In the present example, both bat species can coexist in the same city but the weaker bat species (species 1) roost at the top of the shorter buildings while dominant species (species 2) roost at the top of the highest buildings.
