Answer:
- Two predictors to measure biodiversity: Species Richness and Simpson's Index
- Biodiversity increases ecosystem stability
- It has been shown that natural ecosystems are more stable than monocultures, while isolated human populations are found in highly diverse ecosystems
Explanation:
Two major predictors to measure biodiversity are: 1-species richness and the 2-Simpson's index. The species richness is a count for the total number of the species in a given habitat and/or ecosystem; while Simpson's index is a similarity index that indicates the likelihood that two different individuals selected at random from a sample will belong to the same species, thereby also estimating the biodiversity of a habit and/or ecosystem. Simpson's index takes into consideration the number of species and the abundance of each species. Ecosystems with high diversity tend to be more stable and resilient than ecosystems with low diversity. Biodiversity increases ecosystem stability due to the species asynchrony, which is a strong driver capable of stabilizing multiple processes/functions in the ecosystems over time (e.g., the productivity of the ecosystems over time). In this regard, it has been shown that forests that are highly diverse in the number of species are more productive and stable under stress than monocultures (i.e., agricultural crops), while isolated human populations live in sustainable ecosystems, it is for that reasons that isolated tribes are only found in highly diverse ecosystems.
Answer:
D) epithelial tissue
Explanation:
The exchange surfaces of the organisms are the site for an exchange of substances or gases. These surfaces mostly lie within the body and protect the exchange tissues. The exchange surfaces of multicellular organisms are lined with epithelial tissues. These tissues have tightly packed cells with little or no intercellular spaces. The epithelial tissues serve to protect the exchange surfaces. Sometimes, these epithelial linings are modified to perform an additional function. The exchange surfaces are finely branched or folded to have a very large area. The digestive, respiratory, and excretory systems all have such exchange surfaces.
Answer:
Saturated fatty acids exhibit a linear structure while unsaturated fatty acids bend, or kink, due to double bonds within the chemical foundation.
