Can the environment and the heritage be used to describe evolution?

Biology
1 answer:
guapka [62]3 years ago
7 0
Evolution is caused by genetic mutations that become favorable for survival.

For example if a bird has a mutation that gives it a longer beak and it lives in an environment in which a longer beak lets the bird catch more food- the longer beak becomes a favorable trait.

Now the bird is able to survive “better” thus it lives longer(due to its ability to catch more food). Because of this it reproduces more and passes the trait on to its offspring.
Overtime this mutation takes over the population of birds in the area.

MrMuchimi
<span>the plant no longer is allowing the necessary carbon dioxide required for photosynthesis to enter through the stomata. The plant also needs to be able to release oxygen,the byproduct of photosynthesis through the stomata. The stomata are also responsible for theamount of water inside the plant. By closing when there is not enough water, the stomata prevent loss of additional water due to evaporation.</span>

Explain how energy limits the number of trophic levels in a food chain or web.
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

According to the 10% law, only 10% of energy will be gained by the individuals who are present at a higher trophic levels by eating the organism present at their lower trophic level.  

So there would be very little energy available for the organism present at 3rd or 4th trophic level therefore tropic level is limited. This is the reason why a low number of organisms are present at higher tropic levels than lower trophic level.

Therefore decrease in the energy availability at the higher trophic level limits the number of trophic levels in a food chain of the web.
