A subspecies is a different group within a species that is able to interbreed but is usually prevented from doing so by geograph
ical isolation. The Florida Panther is a subspecies of the American Cougar, and there are very few (less than 100) remaining in its population. When populations get this small, inbreeding results in low genetic diversity. The result is fewer beneficial adaptations that might help the animals survive environmental change, as well as an increase in the occurrence of genetic abnormalities. How can this subspecies of cougar be saved from extinction
Increase the genetic diversity by introducing other subspecies of cougar to the population.
Explanation:
Genetic diversity is the total number of genetic makeup of species. It includes the number of species that have differences within the species and is distinguished from the genetic variability.
The genetic diversity services allow for the population to adapt to the environment and continue to generate more. Thus introducing the subspecies of cougar can be done to save the species from getting extinct.
Outer planets take longer to orbit than inner planets because of the greater distance they need to cover. They also are further from the sun weakening the power of the suns gravitational pull which causes then to orbit slower.
