Answer
The correct option is B.
Explanation
Ecological succession of any species is composed of following stages:
A. Migration
The movement of species from one place to another location for the purpose of setting permanently o temporary is known as migration
. Forexample
Siberian crane (<em>Leucogeranus leucogeranus</em>) that live in the arctic tundra of eastern and western Russia. The eastern population of birds migrate to china while western population of these birds migrate to Iran, India and Nepal during winter season.
B. Ecesis
The complete establishment of species in new habitat that was completely barren or left barren due to some catastrophe is known as Ecesion. This process is dependent upon the climatic, edaphic and biotic factors. The success of plant depend upon some of the adaptations to withstand the unfavorable conditions which includes both biotic and abiotic conditions.
Forexample
The process of succession in xerosphere start on barren area from pioneer stage covered by crustose lichen, then foliose lichen followed by moss stage, herbaceous stage and a last by shrub stage.
C. Nudation
The initiation of new species by major environmental disturbance such as volcano eruption is known as Nudation.
D. Reaction
It represents the effect of established species on the habitat. Forexample plants alter habitat condition as they grow. They extract raw materials from the environment in large amounts and return metabolic wastes. The waste accumulates in large amounts and differ from the original raw materials, thus altering the environment.
E. Competition
The phenomenon which involves struggle for existence between two or more individuals growing in same area, that make excessive demand that are similar in nature on the soil is known as competition.
Such struggle may be in between same species or different species. The competition may be interspecific or intraspecific. Because of completion the weak individuals are eliminated as strong ones are retained.
Finches adapt to the new conditions such as drought by changing the size, shape and depth of their beaks. Beak morphology varies according to drought conditions. Since after the drought, vegetation dries out and the hard, big, tough seeds remain, only the finches with deep beaks will survive. Finches adapt via their beaks to different foods sources and different local conditions.
Answer:
Option (a) and (d).
Explanation:
The breaks in DNA molecule may occur due to replication error and oxidizing agent. The double-stranded breaks in DNA can be corrected by Homologous end joining and non homologous end joining.
Homologous end joining is used to repair the DNA present in G2 nad S phases of the cell cycle. The homologous sequences of DNA is used to repair the DNA. Non homologous end joining occurs in the cell present at G0 and G1 phase of the cell cycle. The DNA broken ends are juxtaposed and later rejoin together by DNA ligase.
Thus, the correct answer is option (a) and (d).
Answer:option d
Explanation:Ocean acidification is the ongoing decrease in the pH of the Earth's oceans, caused by the uptake of carbon dioxide (CO. 2) from the atmosphere. Seawater is slightly basic (meaning pH > 7), and ocean acidification involves a shift towards pH-neutral conditions rather than a transition to acidic conditions (pH < 7).
Answer:
The increase in the reproductive success of a species will have the greatest impact on the prey of the animal.
Explanation:
The prey's population will decrease because there are more animals needing it to survive.
