Answer:

B) Absence of native grasses

Explanation:

The grasses, which acted as a windbreak and whose roots anchored the soil in place, were overgrazed and/or removed to allow for farming. Once a few years of severe drought affected the area, any wind storm was able to blow the topsoil away, rendering the farm land of the Great Plains virtually unusable in many areas. Ground cover is an essential part of sustainable agriculture.

A)what are the difference between two species of minnows?​
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Animals are often individually consistent in their behavior, not only over time, but also across different functional contexts. Recent research has focused on phenotypic and evolutionary mechanisms explaining such personality differences through selection. Parasitism and predation induce important mortality and fitness costs, and are thus main candidates to create and maintain personality differences in the wild. Here, we present data on the behavioral consistency of the Eurasian minnow (Phoxinus phoxinus) from two populations that live in different tributaries of the same river, but whose ecological environment differs fundamentally with regard to predation and parasitism. We experimentally demonstrate that individual minnow in both study populations are consistent in their boldness and activity. However, the two study populations differ notably: in the high predation and parasitism risk population fish show higher mean boldness, but tend to be less active than fish in low predation and parasitism risk population. Parasite (Diplostomum phoxini) load was negatively, but not statistically significantly, associated with fish activity level. Our study suggests that parasitism and predation are likely important agents in the ecology and evolution of animal personalities.

WILL MARK BRAINLY What word do we use to describe the Asexual reproduction of a genetic carbon copy of an animal or plant?
nydimaria [60]

Cloning.

Step-byExplanation:

  • A clone is a genetically identical copy of an organism.
  • A clone is  usually a product of asexual reproduction.
  • Unlike sexual reproduction, asexual reproduction requires only one parent and thus no recombination of traits occur and the clone becomes an exact copy of the mother.
  • Process of creating clones is called cloning.
  • Cloning can be carried out naturally as asexual reproduction or artificially  through molecular cloning techniques.

A mutation that occurs in a skin cell of a fully grown zebra might prevent the production of a protein needed to make hair black
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Be outcasted.

Explanation:

It might be outcasted because zebras find other zebras by their stripes. If one doesn't have black stripes the zebras wouldn't be able to identify it. (I think)
