Conservation strategies that set aside ecosystems for preservation: question 11 options: are the best way to preserve an area's
hoa [83]
<span>Conservation strategies that set aside ecosystems for preservation </span>are the best way to preserve an area's diversity.
The World Wildlife Fund says that the conservation strategies that focus on ecosystems for preservation have an impact on preserving and area's diversity because it is a complete, healthy ecosystem, filled with all that is part of it, that will maintain the diversity of its area - for example, if a species of a tree from a certain ecosystem was to be extinct, not only that species would disappear, reducing already by itself the diversity of the area, but it would also affect other species taking them probably also to eventual extinction, once more reducing the diversity of the area.

What do you notice is the main difference between the structure of the connective tissues and the structure of the epithelium? m
FinnZ [79.3K]

The connective tissues and the epithelial tissue differ in their structure in the way their cells are organized. The cell of the epithelial tissue are organized in a closed-packed pattern, while the cells of connective tissue are organized in spread out pattern. Moreover, the connective tissues has blood vessels, but the epithelial tissue does not.

The epithelial tissues serve the purpose of protection. Protective layering is formed by the epithelial tissues in the body. The connective tissue such as bone provides support to the body. The blood vessel connectivity helps in the transfer of the newly formed blood cells.

The appearance of a person is determined by the tissues and other components. The skeletal determines the basic structure of the person. The epithelial tissues give more specificity to the figure of a person. The fats helps in determining the shape of the eyes and cheeks.

The fat in the cheeks is supposed to help the new born infants to suckle and chew. Moreover, it provides padding to the temporalis muscle while chewing. The fat behind the eyes helps in preventing damage to the eyes which may be caused if they rub with the bones of the skull.

It will be hard to open and close one's mouth if the temporalis muscle of a person is damaged. This will make forming words properly difficult. The damage to orbicularis oculi will make the blinking extremely difficult. The facial expressions will be distorted in such cases. The damage to the orbicularis oris will make the movement of the mouth difficult, which will cause poor articulation.
