Two Types of Coevolution
Coevolution is common among organisms participating in a mutual interaction. In mutualism, both the organisms benefit from each other. When coevolution occurs among mutually benefiting species, it is called mutualistic coevolution.
When coevolution is found among species that have negative effects on each other, it is called competitive coevolution. There are two kinds of interactions between species that can lead to competitive coevolution:
<span><span>Predation is when one organism kills and eats another organism. The prey is the species that gets eaten by the predator, which is of course the species that eats the prey.</span><span>Parasitism is when one organism benefits by damaging, but not killing, another organism. The parasitespecies benefits from this relationship, while the host species is negatively affected.</span></span>
Answer:
b. the new species must be unable to breed with the original species.
Explanation:
By definition, species are defined as groups of similar organisms that can live and breed freely. This means that individuals in that species can interbreed and produce viable, fertile offspring. However, two different species cannot interbreed to produce fertile offspring due to biological barriers known as mechanisms of reproduction isolation.
These barriers are broadly classified as pre and postzygotic. Prezygotic barriers include the following:
- Habitat isolation: Two species occupy entirely different and distant habitats.
- Temporal isolation: Two species procreate at different times of the year.
- Behavioral isolation: Two species exhibit different mating behaviors.
- Gametic isolation: The gametes of the two species cannot fertilize.
- Mechanical isolation
Speciation, the production of an entirely new species, requires a maintenance of genetic diversity. Therefore, the new and original species cannot interbreed as this would limit the gene pool and decrease genetic variations.
The correct answer is option (D) A sandwich is digested and converted to carbon dioxide and water.
Digestion is a catabolic process of breakdown of complex food substances into simpler nutrients releasing energy. In the process of digestion of a sandwich, the carbohydrates are broken down into simpler sugars in presence of enzymes releasing water, carbon dioxide and energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This ATP is the reserved energy currency and also used for the growth, repair and replacement of cells.
Answer:
fewer in number.
Explanation:
A low sperm count also known as oligospermia can be defined as a medical condition which typically involves a man (adult male) having fewer than 15 million sperm per millilitre of semen.
Basically, low sperm count (oligospermia) is usually caused in men due to health and lifestyle factors such as smoking, alcohol or drug abuse, obesity, genetics, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), age etc.
Hence, smokers, alcohol abusers, overweight and obesity men are more likely to have sperm which are fewer in number i.e fewer than 15 million sperm per millilitre of semen.
Generally, a healthy or normal sperm motility ranges from over 20 million to 200 million sperm per millilitre of semen.
Answer:
"Be freezing at night because the planet has no atmosphere" is the correct answer.
Explanation:
I was doing my reading in OW and I quote this is what OW said:
Temperatures during the day can reach 430°C (800°F), but can drop to -170°C (-280°F) at night because there is no atmosphere to trap heat.
Hope I helped:)
Have a great day!!!
