A population of snakes that eat small rodents enters a new habitat. In the new habitat, there are many species of rodents, and t

heir populations are high because there are few natural predators. What will most likely be the effect on the genetic variation of the snake population?
Genetic variation will increase because of a selective pressure.

Genetic variation will increase because of a new habitat and food source.

Genetic variation will decrease because of a selective pressure.

Genetic variation will decrease because of a new habitat and food source.

Answer:

The correct answer is the 2nd statement.

Explanation:

Genetic variation signifies the naturally taking place genetic differences, which prevails between the individuals of similar species. Genetic variation is essential as it permits the individuals to thrive better in a given surrounding.  

In the mentioned case, when the snakes enter a novel habitat, they came across a condition where there are lesser natural predators and because of this they had enough food and less competition. Therefore, no selective pressure is exhibited to affect genetic variation.  

Additionally, in the availability of enough food and non-existence of competition, the genetic variation will only enhance. Thus, in the mentioned case, the genetic variation of the snakes enhances because of the food source and new habitat.

How do wildfires help control plant disease? a. Wildfires are more likely to kill off plants that are likely to spread disease.
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

d. All of the above

Explanation:

Wildfires are useful in controlling the ecosystem disturbed due to some diseases and insects.

With the help of wildfire, there will be a temporary loss in some region but it will lead to extraordinary growth.

Wildfire improves the soil quality by decomposing the organic material and renewing the soil nutrients.

There are chances of habitat loss but it will increase the production of food grazers.

Certain plants can be reproduced through wildfire due to cracking their seeds.

How do scientists theorize that cyanobacteria affect the development of endosymbiosis?
timama [110]
Cyanobacteria are primitive organisms where chloroplasts are believed to be originated. Now, with the theory of endosymbiosis, this suggests that these organelle from cyanobacteria was engulfed by other organisms which has helped them process light with the help of chloroplasts.
