2. DESERT  A desert is an area of ​​the earth's surface totally or almost totally uninhabited.  A desert can be a sandy or stony terrain that lacks vegetation due to low rainfall.  The harsh environmental conditions mean that these deserts have little stable population DELGADO ELERA, REYNER. CHARACTERISTICS OF THE DESERTS.  Temperatures are generally high, but nights can be cold.  Its climate is extreme with temperatures of 50 ° C during the day and –20 ° C at night.  It is the ecosystem that presents water scarcity.  The ground is covered with sand as a result of the disintegration of rocks. The relief presents plains, dunes and in some places oases.  There are counter winds and rains are very scarce.  Deserts form the largest area of ​​the earth's surface. BIOTIC AND ABIOTIC FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE DESERT BIOMA  BIOTIC FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE DESERT BIOME These are the living beings of an ecosystem that survive. They can refer to the flora, fauna, humans of a place and their interactions. Individuals must have specific behavior and physiological characteristics that allow their survival and reproduction in a defined environment. The condition of sharing an environment engenders a competition between species, given by food, space, etc. Depending on the region: In the desert only some animals manage to survive: camels, lizards, spiders, owls, rats, kangaroo, mice, a variety of snakes, hawks, scorpions, birds, squirrels among others. In the same way, in the fauna, only some plants manage to survive. These protect themselves from other animals with the thorns they have and with their thick layer of skin, some of them are: cactus, palm trees, nopales, bushes, grasslands, weeds in oases, etc.

3. Plants and animals that live in the desert are conditioned to withstand extreme temperatures with minimal water.  ABIOTIC FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE DESERT BIOME Abiotic means lifeless. They are the different components that determine the physical space in which living beings inhabit; among the most important we can find water, temperature, light, soil, humidity, air and nutrients. They are the lifeless factors. Deserts are known for their extreme abiotic factors. Varied temperature and scarce fluvial precipitation. Sunlight, climatic factors such as: humidity (very low) and temperature (high during the day, very low at night); rocks, sand or very dry soil, atmospheric gases, very strong barometric pressure. Rocky terrain, wind processes are important factors in the formation of the landscape. They have an average rainfall of 200 to 500 mm per year. MOST REPRESENTATIVE DESERTS OF PERU 1. DESERT OF SECHURA  One of the most representative deserts of Peru is that of Sechura, located in the northwest of Peru, just between the Lambayeque and Piura regions having a length of 150 kilometers by a width of 100. It is located 55 km southwest of the city of Piura. It is the widest area of ​​the coastal desert in Peru, it has an area of ​​more than 5000 square km.  This desert is an arid plateau formed by materials from the Tertiary, with little vegetation, which includes several intermittent lagoons. The aridity of the climate and the unproductive soils limit the settlement of the population, except in the oases that constitute the mouths of the Piura rivers, to the north, and Lambayeque, to the south; agriculture is possible in these areas.

Leer el siguiente texto de las teorías evolutivas y expresar cuales son las principales semejanzas y diferencias
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Lamarck creía que la evolución era una consecuencia de la presión ambiental mientras que Darwin expresó que el mecanismo de evolución es la selección natural

Explanation:

Lamarck desarrolló una teoría en la que propuso que los organismos evolucionaban como una consecuencia de la influencia ambiental y que los cambios fenotípicos causados por el ambiente podía ser trasmitidos a través de generaciones. Por otra parte, Darwin desarrollo una teoría en la cual las especies evolucionan a través de un proceso que él denominó selección natural (supervivencia del más apto) : aquellos organismos mejor adaptados a su ambiente tendrán más chances de sobrevivir y de reproducirse, pasando sus genes a la siguiente generación. En relación al cuadro comparativo, Lamarck creía que las jirafas se adaptaban a su ambiente para sobrevivir, mientras que Darwin propuso que aquellas jirafas que mejor se adaptaban a un ambiente cambiante tenían más chances de sobrevivir. Lamarck también creía en la idea del uso y desuso de órganos: las jirafas con el tiempo podía desarrollar cuellos más largos estirándose para alcanzar las hojas de los árboles de copas más altas y transmitían esta característica a su progenie, mientras que Darwin propuso que aquellas jirafas con cuellos más largos tenían más chances de sobrevivir que las que tenían cuello corto (selección natural), y las jirafas de cuello largo transmitían este rasgo a su descendencia (descendencia con modificación). Lamarck creía en la idea que las especies no poseen un antecesor común, mientras  que Darwin creía que todo el árbol de la vida está conectado a través de antepasados comunes. Finalmente, Lamarck pensaba que las especies no podían extinguirse, mientras que Darwin propuso la idea que las especies se extinguen y surgen otras nuevas a través de procesos de radiación adaptativa.
