The idea of evolution is that the species change over time. The proposed mechanism of evolution is natural selection. Natural selection favors inheritable traits, suitable (adapted) for survival and reproduction. Organisms with such traits will tend to leave more offspring than others, and thus will evolve over time.
Some of the people that influenced Darwin are:
• Lamarck who first proposed that humans evolved from a lower species through adaptations over time
• Malthus, economist who explained that population grows faster than food production could sustain. So, Darwin proposed that only individuals that have favorable adaptations would survive.
Here are the reason why joining flocks will increase their chance of survival:
- Protection from predator
Their predator (such as falcons) can only get one bird at a time. Joining a flock will reduce their chance of being caught because they are moving in large unstoppable mass.
- Conserving heat
Being around the flock will help them maintain their body temperature to survive a harsh winter.
Between 5 & 10 seconds the trucks velocity is 0 m/s^2. this is because the graph shows that the truck did not move between those seconds
The statement "<span>A body buried will completely skeletalize faster than one left on the surface of the ground" is FALSE. It is said that a body placed above the surface of the ground could decompose for about eight months until it becomes skeletalize, compared to a body being buried below the ground.</span>
