Ivory from elephant tusks is highly valued for making jewelry and art pieces. Because of this, large numbers of elephants were h

unted throughout the 1800s and 1900s. By the 1980s, the elephant population in Africa had severely decreased and elephants were in danger of extinction. International laws banning the trade of ivory were passed in order to protect elephants from being hunted. How have the laws most likely affected the world’s elephant populations?

The laws have made it harder for criminals to harvest the ivory, therefore less harvesting occurs. So you could say it affected the population positively, letting the population increase.

If an organism has high biological fitness in one environment, does that mean that it would also have high biological fitness in
Marina86 [1]

The answer is no, high biological fitness in one environment doesn’t have to be high in another environment.

Biological fitness is a term used in evolutionary biology and it is the quantitative representation of how a genotype (or phenotype) is successful (reproductively) in a certain environment. Fitness depends on environment so it changes if the environment changes. The fitness of a genotype is manifested through its phenotype, which is affected by the environment.

Explain the relationship between three aspects of science: hypothesis, research/experimentation, and theory.
Luda [366]
Hypothesis: It is basically a prediction of what an experiment will do. You are making a scientific guess to what is going to happen. After you make a hypothesis you will perform a experiment to test your hypothesis and to see whether your hypothesis was right or not. If it is then you are good to go (move on to make a data) if not then you have to do the project over again. 

Research/ Experiment: Usually researching and experimenting are different kind of things but experimenting is basically what i said in the Hypothesis area, you are testing to see if your hypothesis is right or wrong. Usually researching means you are finding a source for your project. (Using source is a main thing when creating a project).

Last by not least theory: Theory is different from predictions or hypothesis. A theory is a supposition or a system of ideas intended to explain something, especially one based on general principles independent of the thing to be explained. Example: My theory for the big bang theory is... and you put your theory in it.

Changes in ecosystems are most pronounced when humans remove which species?
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Of course predators consume prey, but in doing so, they may have broader impacts on communities as a whole. That is to say, predators help to maintain a balance among organisms, both by consuming prey and by altering prey behavior and prey habitat selection. This article describes how predators influence the composition and distribution of species in communities.
