How can humans reduce the amount of endangered and extinct species?

Biology
1 answer:
Andrews [41]2 years ago
4 0
There are many ways humans can reduce the amount of endangered and extinct species. However, I would say by reducing pollution and logging/mining. Nearly 318 species have become extinct due to pollution. The reduction of carbon emissions would be a good way to curb the amount of pollution produced by humans.

<span>AUTOTROPH 1. an organism that can make its own food

Plants like algae are autotrophs. They produce their own food with the use of light, carbon dioxide, water, and other chemicals that are vital in their food producing activity. Aside from plants, there are autotroph organisms. An example of this is phytoplanktons. 

CALVIN CYCLE 2. the dark reaction process of photosynthesis that uses carbon dioxide for the synthesis of carbohydrates

The Calvin Cycle has three phases. These are 1) carbon fixation, 2) reduction reactions, and 3) RuBP regeneration. 
This cycle occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast and it converts carbon dioxide and other chemical compounds into glucose.

CAROTENOID PIGMENT 3. a pigment ranging in color from yellow to red; helpful in capturing the Sun's light energy for use in photosynthesis

Carotenoid is a plant pigment. It produces yellow, orange, and red colors of many fruits and vegetables. Carotenoid pigment is identified as a class of phytonutrients that benefits human health. People who consumes carotenoid rich fruits and vegetables enjoys the antioxidant property of the food as well as the Vitamin A that some carotenoid convert into. 

CHLOROPHYLL 4. a green pigment in plants that serves to trap the Sun's energy for photosynthesis

Chlorophyll is the combination of two Greek words "chloros" and "phyllon" which means green and leaf respectively. This pigment also contributes to human wellness as consumption of plants rich in chlorophyll are proven to be very healthy. These health benefits are 1) helps fight cancer, 2) improves liver detoxification, 3) speeds up the healing of wounds, 4) improves digestion and helps control weight, and 5) protects skin from skin virus like cold sores.

CHLOROPLAST 5. the tiny body that contains chlorophyll; part of the cell in which photosynthesis takes place

Chloroplast is a type of plastid that can be distinguished from other plastids due to its green color. Chloroplast is the only plastid that contains chlorophylls a and b, thus its green color. 

PHOTOSYNTHESIS 6. a process that involves the use of carbon dioxide and water in the production of glucose and oxygen using the Sun's energy

RADIATION 7. transfer of heat or energy through rays of various wavelengths

</span><span>Radiation is defined as energy travelling through space. Sunshine or sunlight is an example of radiation. Its ultra violet rays radiates heat on the earths' surface which in turn helps our autotrophs undergo photosynthesis.

The first protists probably appeared around a. 1.5 million years ago b. 170 million years ago c. 1.5 billion years ago d. 5 bill
mixer [17]

Answer:

1.5 billion years ago

Explanation:

Protists are a collection formed up of protozoa, unicellular algae, and fungus forms. We will focus on the being part of this society: the protozoa (proto = first, zoa = beings). Protozoa are the earliest discovered collection of heterotrophic living that utilize and modify complicated meal particles into power. Although protozoans are only made up of a single cell, these organisms control to perform all the necessary responsibilities of life.  The protozoa are split into four principal associations: the ciliates, the flagellates, the heliozoans, and the amoebas.

1. Which of the following correctly compares the changes that take place in an ecosystem during primary succession and secondary
mr Goodwill [35]
The correct answers are as follows:
1. A.
There are basically two types of succession, they are primary and secondary succession. Primary succession refers to the type of succession that occurs in new and bare areas where the soil present is unable  to sustain the growth of plants. An example of primary succession area is an area with sand dunes that is freshly formed. Primary succession usually occur over a long period of time. Secondary succession is a type of succession that occur on a land which was disturbed by  hazardous events such as fire outbreak, flood, etc. Secondary succession occurs much faster than the primary succession.

2. D
There are two types of factors that affect any particular ecosystem, these are abiotic and biotic factors. The abiotic factors refers to non living factors such as temperature, relative humidity, rainfall, etc. while the biotic factors refer to the living factors. Looking at the options given above, one will see that only option D has living factor, which is predators. All other options have abiotic factors.
