<h2>Specialists and Generalists </h2>

Explanation:

Niche is the role played by an organism that how it lives in an environment

Specialists

  • Species that have narrow niches are called specialists and this type of niche is called realized niche
  • It is narrow because of the presence of ecological barriers and is the space where a species actually lives

Generalists

  • Species that have broad niche are called generalists and this type of niche is called fundamental niche
  • It is larger than the realized niche due to absence of ecological barriers
  • It represents all the environmental conditions where a species is able to live or can live

Linda owns an orchard of orange trees, and she is worried because she notices that many of her orange trees are unhealthy. They
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

If there is low genetic diversity, she needs to introduce something into the system to increase the variation. I would suggest breeding the orange trees with other new orange trees to change the allele frequencies, which is called gene flow.

Likely the fungi are attacking them somewhere that they have decreased resistance, and if more alleles were introduced, there would probably be evolution towards a genotype that promotes defense against these fungi.

leonid [27]

Answer:

(a) X: Producers undergo photosynthesis. Y: Decomposers return carbon to the soil and release waste.

Explanation:

<em>(a) X: Producers undergo photosynthesis. Y: Decomposers return carbon to the soil and release waste. </em>

<em>(b) X: Decomposers return carbon to the soil and release waste. Y: Producers undergo photosynthesis. </em>

<em>(c) X: Decomposers take in carbon dioxide. Y: Producers absorb carbon through their roots. </em>

<em>(d)X: Producers absorb carbon through their roots. Y: Decomposers take in carbon dioxide. </em>

<u>Box 2 (X)  would be the process through which producers fix carbon dioxide to produce their own food, the carbohydrate. T</u>he process is otherwise known as photosynthesis and can be represented by the following equation:

6CO_2 + 6H_20 --> C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6O_2

<u>Box 4 (Y) would be the process of decomposition.</u> Both producers and consumers eventually die and decompose in the soil. During this process, some of the carbon returns to the soil as organic matters while the process of microbial decomposition releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

The correct option would be (a).

A:Any of a group of complex organic macromolecules that contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and usually sulfur and are composed of one or more chains of amino acids. Proteins are fundamental components of all living cells and include many substances, such as enzymes, hormones, and antibodies, that are necessary for the proper functioning of an organism. They are essential in the diet of animals for the growth and repair of tissue and can be obtained from foods such as meat, fish, eggs, milk, and legumes.</span>
