hammer [34]

The correct answer is deforestation.

Now that deforestation limits the population, raccoons are dying reason being they lost their lives in trees. Omnivores eat both meat and plants and so raccoons are.

Deforestation is known to be the permanent destruction of forests so that land can be made for other purposes.

Example of deforestation is conversion of forest land to urban use, ranches, and farms.

The only known deforestation occurs in tropical rainforests.

NISA [10]
Hello,

Convection currents<span> in the mantle drive plate tectonics. Convection is the reason for o</span>cean currents. Ocean currents<span> result from two processes - the action of wind on the surface of the water, and from variation in water temperature that causes movement. 
</span>
Both the mantle and ocean experience <span>the heat transfer due to bulk movement of molecules within fluids such as gases and liquids, including molten rock; this is called, again, convection.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

The new trait appears in a group of previously isolated people is an

example of genetic drift.

<h3>What is Genetic drift?</h3>

This is defined as the random fluctuations in the frequencies of alleles

from generation to generation due to occurring events which makes the

trait to be present or disappear.

The new trait appearing as a result of events such as migration helps to

infer that it is genetic drift.

What role does natural light exposure during the day play in improving sleep? it helps to regulate circadian rhythm. it discoura
yuradex [85]

Answer: It helps to regulate circadian rhythm

Exposure to natural light during the day helps regulate the circadian rhythm, which improves sleep pattern. The term circadian rhythm refers to our biochemical, physiological and behavioral processes in approximately 1 full day cycle. Circadian rhythm plays an important role in controlling when we fall asleep and when we wake up.

During day light, the secretion of melatonin or sleep hormone is suppress by melanopsin that keeps people awake and alert. Nevertheless, during nighttime, melanopsin stimulates the release of melatonin to signal sleeping time. Therefore, this hormone works the entire day and has direct effect on the circadian rhythm, which acts as a regulator of our biological clock.
