Biodiversity simply means the variety of life in an ecosystem, it entails the variability of living organisms from all system with each organism playing an ecological role in the ecosystem. Clear cutting and changes in the environment impact the biodiversity negatively since they cause global worming, destruction of habitat, drought and extreme loss of biodiversity among living organisms.These are lasting negative impacts on the biological diversity of a given ecological system or area.

Briefly discuss the current controversy about which complex organic molecules formed first: nucleic acids or proteins
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

The controversy surrounding the nucleic acids and proteins, regarding which one of them was formed first is the most popular controversy in the biology world today. The nucleic acids stores and the genetic information. The proteins essential for all the life processes are encoded by the genes formed of the nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). But proteins (enzymes) are required for the formation of proteins from the genes. The inter-dependency of the nucleic acids and proteins on each other possesses a dilemma to the question 'which of them arrived first'.

The answer to this dilemma was answered when it was discovered that RNA was capable of not only carrying the genetic information, but also acting as catalyst to the chemical reaction. This finding supported the notion that the RNA evolved first serving the purpose of both the nucleic acids and emzymes.

1. What is the difference between primary waves (P-waves) and secondary waves (S-waves)?
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Primary waves travel faster, move in a push-pull pattern, travel through solids, liquids and gases, and cause less damage due to their smaller size. Secondary waves travel slower, move in an up-and-down pattern, travel only through solids, and cause more damage due to their greater size.

what's the difference between these- single or multiple genes, and dominant, recessive or sex-linked genes
Veseljchak [2.6K]
A single gene disorder is one that's known to be caused by a single gene. Multiple gene disorders, however, can be caused by multiple gene combinations and other factors. Dominant genes are always expressed in the offspring, while recessive genes are only expressed if the offspring recieves the recessive gene from both parents. Sex-linked genetic disorders occur most often in men, and are caused by a single-gene disorder gene being on the X chromosome but not the Y, so that the offspring needs only one recessive gene to have the trait/disorder.
