Answer:

Answer number 2

Explanation:

So in Geology, Precipitation of rock layers took place over the last hundreds of millions of years...During that process many living organisms have died and are precipitated with the rock layers... Let me explain with an example.

Dinasours went extinct Million years ago while the Dodo bird went extinct a couple of hundred years ago

Would you expect to find Dinasour fossils in newer rock layers or the dodo? lets's say 200m deep? Dodo for sure, Dinasour fossils are waay too old to be found at such shallow deeps that's why fossils in newer layer of rocks are absolutely younger than fossils found at deeper layers

vichka [17]

Answer:  es decir un total de 78,

Explanation:

Los perros tienen 39 pares de cromosomas, es decir un total de 78, de estos 78 cromosomas 39 contienen la información genética de la madre y las otras 39 la información genética del padre. Desde la fertilización del óvulo, comienza el proceso de crecimiento, los núcleos de las células comienzan una multiplicación exacta, de esta forma crean nuevas células.  El número de cromosomas en cada especie es constante, salvo que se padezca de algún síndrome el número siempre será el mismo.

The Competitive Exclusion Principle states that: Group of answer choices a. When two species occur together, competition is alwa
Reika [66]

Answer:

b. Two species that use a limited resource in the same way cannot coexist indefinitely

Explanation:

The competitive exclusion principle establishes that two or more species that share the same niche requirements,  in the same habitat, and are in biological competition for the same resources, won´t be able to coexist indefinitely in the same space if the other ecological factors are constant. This is because species with identical niches have the same necessities, which means that they will compete for the same resources. If these species have the same requirements, they can not coexist. When the superior competitor occupies the inferior competitor´s fundamental niche, the first species has advantages over the second species and <em>monopolizes all the resources</em>. From that moment, the inferior species is displaced and must adapt to use other resources changing its behavior, or must migrate to another area where it can get access to its needs or get extinct.

When <em>two competing species coexist</em>, this is because of niche partitioning or niche differentiation. One of the species uses a <em>different resource, occupies another area, or uses the resources at different times during the day</em>. If there is not any differentiation between them, the dominant species displaces the weak species.

Niche specialization might produce genotypic separation. Subpopulations of a species diverge into new species.    

So, <em>competitive exclusion refers to the exclusion of the inferior competitor by the superior competitor when there is not habitat differentiation, and both species can not share the same niche.    </em>
