Macroevolution can cause significant changes in the frequencies of alleles, that can ultimately result in speciation (forming of new species).
Various large-scale events like climate change and continental drift can greatly influence the distribution of species and adaptive radiation of different groups that can fill vacant ecological niches.
The changes in gene regulation and genetic mutations can also contribute to macroevolution by producing novel traits and adaptations.

An ecosystem has 150 organisms of 15 different species. What is the biodiversity index of this ecosystem?

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

0.1

Explanation:

To calculate this, scientists use a formula called the biodiversity index in order to describe how much are the species of a given area diverse. It is calculated by taking the number of species in the area and divided by the total number of individuals in that area. This gives us the biodiversity index.

In this example, there are 15 species in an area and we divide that by 150 organisms to get a 0.1 biodiversity index.

Studies suggest that the incidence of colon cancer may be lowered with high fiber diets. how might this be explained?

Triss [41]

The increase in the high fiber diet reduces the risk of colon cancer is suggested by the researchers. The effect of high fiber dietary intake add bulk to the digestive system. It also reduces the time required by the food to travel from the colon. Our food often contains some carcinogenic contents, so the interaction of such carcinogens may also be reduced due to the high fiber diet and also reduces the risk of intestinal tract. The bacteria in the lower intestine breaks the fibers into butyrate, which inhibits the growth of tumors of the colon and rectum.
