Why do ecosystems undergo succession​

Biology
1 answer:
Sliva [168]4 years ago
5 0

Answer AND Explanation:

In the process of succession, the species in an area will gradually change. Each species is adapted to survive and competes with other species under specific sets of environmental conditions. If these conditions change, then the existing species will be replaced by a new set of species which are better adapted to the new conditions that have evolved.

This process helps an ecological community to undergo a predictable change following the initial colonisation of a new habitat. The succession that occurs in new habitat uninfluenced by pre existing succession is called primary succession, where as succession that follows disruption of a pre existing community is called secondary succession.

Arrange the events in the order that they occur during DNA replication. Tiles. Helicase unzips DNA to separate strands. Polymera
Leya [2.2K]
<span>DNA exists in a coiled form in order for it to take up a smaller volume in the cell so that is why the first thing is that it needs to be unwound by topoisomerase. Then each piece is made up of two strands that must be separated as they need to be copied separately, so next the helicase unzips the DNA. DNA polymerase needs to have something to build off so because DNA can be synthesized, the Primase needs to make an RNA "primer". DNA is then synthesized but because it cannot synthesize the whole chromosome in one piece, after DNA synthesis, the ligase must glue the shorter pieces together to make the entire chromosome. Correct Order 1. Topoisomerase unwinds the coiled DNA 2. Helicase unzips DNA to separate strands 3. Primase lays down short RNA strands 4. Polymerase synthesizes new DNA strands 5. The new strands are glued using ligase</span>

pogonyaev

Answer: Soil moisture and fertility

Cheat grass is likely to decrease the soil moisture of the region, thus rendering the soil infertile and unfit for other plants growth.

Explanation:

Cheatgrass is an exotic weed native to Europe, West Asia and Northern Africa. Cheatgrasses outcompeted native vegetation as a result of large number of livestocks like cattle and sheep into sagebrush region. The livestocks overgrazed on native vegetation, which resulted to a void filled rapidly by Cheatgrass.

Cheatgrass grows on pastures, hills, and ranges. Wildfires promote more Cheatgrass but destroy native plants vegetation. Cheatgrass can survive drought due to deep root system they possess. The deep root system make the plant to grow and flourish with even small amount of water. Its deep root system reduce soil moisture and deplete soil fertility, preventing the growth of other plants. Also, Cheatgrass is self germinating and require les soil to grow. All these attributes that favor Cheatgrass have threatened native plants such as sagebrush plants and woodlands.
