Answer:

Specitation increases biodiversity, while extinctions decrease biodiversity.

Answer:

The same factors that increase the risk of species extinctions also reduce the chance that new species are formed. We often see alarming reports about the global biodiversity crisis through the extinction of species. The reasons why species become extinct is much discussed, particularly the consequences of human activities. Less often discussed is how environmental changes affect the chances that new species are formed.

If a stream with a horizontal distance of 5 km begins at an elevation 200 m
Alex
First convert 5 km into m so the units match up

That way you know the stream goes 5,000 m horizontally and 200 m vertically

Then I think you just do rise/run which would be 0.04 m

What seedless plant is a renewable source of energy?
Ludmilka [50]

The correct answer is C. Sphagnum moss

Explanation:

In biology, a renewable source of energy refers to a type of source that replenishes and therefore can be widely used to obtain energy such as wind energy or solar energy that are almost always available. On the other hand, a seedless plant is a type of plant that does not have seed and because of this, they reproduce through sperms.

All fo the plants listed (club moss, horsetail, fern and sphagnum moss) belong to the category of seedless plants; however, from this, the only one that has been widely used a source of energy is sphagnum moss because dried sphagnum moss or peat moss is used as carbon or coals source and therefore is useful for heating building and because it is a plant that grows extensively it is also a renewable source.
