Field mice in beach mice are closely related species. The Field mice are various shades of brown in the beach mice or later 10 a

nd beige. Each piece is quite well camouflage in their home environment, where they blend into their surroundings and invade their major predators (flying raptor birds such as hawks.) these two species live in joining habitats(a Field near a beach), but don’t normally wander into the other habitat. One day the entire field is mold down, so that a new housing development can be built. The Field mice are displaced, and a scare everywhere, including onto the beach where they are fees for some vigilant hogs. As you may imagine, many of the Field mice get eaten. Some of the lighter colored ones escape predation and are able to successfully live on the beach and reproduce with other field mice. In this scenario, the process of natural selection is acting on

Answer:

The process of natural selection is acting on <u>Field mouse individuals</u> where as evolution is occurring on <u>Field Mouse population. </u>

Explanation:

As the problem shows, the field mice are the ones that natural selection is acting on, but only the ligher shade ones. Because the lighter shade individuals are more likely to survive in the beach because they blend with the environment.

Evolution occurred on the field mouse population because if you read the script in the end, they were able to successfully reproduce. This means that they evolved in such a way that they were able to survive in their new environment. (most likely carrying on the trait of light-colored fur)

Natural selection acts on traits, phenotypic traits, favorable to the environment. Evolution occurred because of the natural selection, because the favored trait enabled the organism to adapt to the environment.

Select all that apply. The Chordata phylum consists of _____.
faltersainse [42]
The answer is tunicates. Tunicates are commonly known as sea squirts and are in the Chordata phylum, even though they don't have a back bone. Which is really weird. But they just got put into the same category as humans. This is because they have a notocord and a back bone when they are larvae. But they lose all these when they become adults.

Explain why the cane toad was a failure as a biological control method in Australia.
kakasveta [241]
The cane toad was a failure as a biological control method in Australia because:
-The greyback beetle it was supposed to be eating fed at the top of the sugarcane stalks (which were 6-8 meters in height). Cane toads cannot fly or climb and therefore couldnt feed on the beetles.
-The beetles were out during the daytime, and cane toads feed at night.
-The two species are not seasonally compatible (aren't in the same place at the same time of year).
-The toads needed moist conditions to survive, and so moved away from where they were supposed to be.
-The cane toad eats many native species and often out-competes native species for food and breeding sites, leading to the decline of natives.
-Breeding habits made the cane toads a very invasive species.
