Not to be too picky, but the question ought to say a positively charge ion rather than atom.
I will assume that is what you mean. An ion, using ordinary means, will be positive if it loses electrons (which are negative).
An ion can never gain protons. Left alone, the nucleus will remain unchanged for the rest of eternity. D is wrong.
C is wrong. If electrons are gained, the ion will go negative.
B is wrong for the same reason D is. An ion can't gain protons and it can't lose them.
A is the answer.
Globalized evolution...... but I might be wrong
Answer:
A) habitat fragmentation makes it easier for cowbird parasitism to occur
Explanation:
It is a situation where by there is transformation of a large habitat into smaller patches with smaller total area secluded from one another by a habitat different from the initial one.
Habitat fragmentation can be caused due geological processes which distort the physical environment. It is also casued by human activities which could lead to loss or extinction of certain species.
Habitat fragmentation could possibly lead to loss of habitat and biodiversity.
I might be wrong, but I think the answer to this question is D.
