Answer:
- Two predictors to measure biodiversity: Species Richness and Simpson's Index
- Biodiversity increases ecosystem stability
- It has been shown that natural ecosystems are more stable than monocultures, while isolated human populations are found in highly diverse ecosystems
Explanation:
Two major predictors to measure biodiversity are: 1-species richness and the 2-Simpson's index. The species richness is a count for the total number of the species in a given habitat and/or ecosystem; while Simpson's index is a similarity index that indicates the likelihood that two different individuals selected at random from a sample will belong to the same species, thereby also estimating the biodiversity of a habit and/or ecosystem. Simpson's index takes into consideration the number of species and the abundance of each species. Ecosystems with high diversity tend to be more stable and resilient than ecosystems with low diversity. Biodiversity increases ecosystem stability due to the species asynchrony, which is a strong driver capable of stabilizing multiple processes/functions in the ecosystems over time (e.g., the productivity of the ecosystems over time). In this regard, it has been shown that forests that are highly diverse in the number of species are more productive and stable under stress than monocultures (i.e., agricultural crops), while isolated human populations live in sustainable ecosystems, it is for that reasons that isolated tribes are only found in highly diverse ecosystems.
Answer:
The process of making food by the green plant by using sunlight,water,mineral, carbon dioxide,etc.is called photosynthesis.
hope this not childish.
Answer:
The answer to this question is D.
Explanation:
This is because it was affected by the wind because sand is very light. ALso, I already learned this stuff so I am kind of an expert ngl.
Answer:
Eukaryotes:
-Organisms with a well defined nucleus are known as eukaryotes. such cells are called as eukaryotic cells.
- Their nucleus is enclosed within the nuclear membrane.
- They do not posses a mitochondria.
- The cell wall is the outer most layer of a eukaryotic cell (only plant cells have a cell wall)
- The cells are divided by a process called mitosis.
Eg: Plants, Animals.
Prokaryotes:
- Organisms without a well defined nucleus are known as prokaryotes. Such cells are called as Prokaryotic cells.
- They lack nuclear membrane.
- Mitochondria, Golgi bodies, chloroplast and lysosomes are absent.
- The genetic material (DNA) is present on the chromosome.
Eg: Every organism coming under the kingdom monera.
