Elephant seals are abundant in their population size but they have low genetic diversity within their species due to overhunting
Anastasy [175]
<h2>Genetic diversity </h2>

Explanation:

If the environment changes, the species runs the risk of not having the genetic diversity to be adaptable to that change and could go extinct

  • Genetic diversity is the diversity  or genetic variability within species
  • The huge variety of different gene sets defines an individual or a whole population's ability to tolerate stress from any given environmental factor
  • While some individuals might be able to tolerate an increased load of pollutants in their environment, others carrying different genes might suffer from infertility or even die under the exact same environmental conditions;the former will continue to live in the environment the latter will either have to leave it or die
  • Any change in the environment - natural or human induced causes a selection of events that only the fittest survive
  • In case of elephant seals,overhunting reduces the sum of genes available,thus leaving behind a population that is less capable of tolerating any further natural or human disturbances in environment
  • The loss of genetic diversity within a species can result in the loss of useful and desirable traits

Hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen gas (O2) react to form liquid hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Which statement is true about the reaction?
Alja [10]
The answer is the atoms of the reactants have combined to form a new substance. Every product of a chemical equation has to be a new substance. If their is no new substance then, a chemical change never occurred and there is no chemical equation. The new substance never has the same properties as the reactants. That's why they call it a "new" substance. Also, the atoms are the ones that combine. They are not mixed
