Answer:
True. This is the case where an invasive species has reduced the genetic diversity of indigenous species.
Explanation:
- An invasive species is an exotic, foreign species that takes over a specific habitat or ecosystem and destabilizes it.
- Invasive species disrupt the food chains of an ecosystem which may lead to increase in populations of some species while reducing others.
- Invasive species compete with indigenous species for food, shelter and mates. As the indigenous species cannot reproduce properly, a reduction in their genetic diversity is the direct result.
Hooke didnt disprove spontaneous generations!
I had to look for the options and here is my answer:
Based on the attached details about the cattle egrets, how an ecologist would explain this expansion is that, a habitat that has been not been occupied by the egrets and the native herons acquired the biotic and abiotic standards <span>of the cattle egret transplants and their descendants. (This is based on the actual option attached to this question.)</span>
Wind, waves, solar panels. etc
Answer: We don't know what species are needed for survival.
basically he is stating that biodiversity is important because animals depend on other animals as a food source. so when their diet dies off, they will also die or adapt to their environment to prey on a diff food source.
