How can molecular evidence show species relatedness

Biology
2 answers:
Yuki888 [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Nowadays, molecular pieces of evidence are used to show the similarity between two species as the universal molecule- DNA is present in all living organism from lower to higher organisms which code for the amino acids of the proteins.

The differences and similarities between genomes of two different species confirm relatedness as a mutation in genes can show evolutionary patterns which can be summarized as:

  1. differences between base sequences can show the degree of divergence.
  2. a large number of differences means species diverged long ago.
  3. more similarity in sequence means species are more closely related.

Thus, molecular evidence is used to show species relatedness.

If you ate more food from secondary consumers, how would this change the percentage of the biomass pyramid necessary to support
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

would increase

Explanation:

The pyramid of biomass is a diagram that exhibits the total biomass of the organisms at different trophic levels, which are required to support life in a given ecosystem. This pyramid usually starts with producers situated on the bottom (e.g., plants), then continues with the organisms that eat these primary consumers (herbivores), after with secondary consumers (carnivores), and so successively. The pyramid of biomass indicates the amount of mass of 1-primary producers required to support the life of the primary consumers, 2- primary consumers needed to support the life of the secondary consumers, 3-secondary consumers needed to support the life of the tertiary consumers, and so successively for each trophic level. In this diagram, the trophic level with a higher amount of biomass (and energy) is usually represented by the producers (i.e., by organisms on the bottom), and this amount of biomass decreases as long as more levels are considered. In consequence, if more food from secondary consumers is consumed, it will produce an increase in the percentage of biomass that is needed to support life.
