Which of the following is not a natural cause of extinction?

Biology
1 answer:
dedylja [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Introduction of Non-native species would be the answer. ( B )

Explanation:

Now let's break it down.

A. Competition due to overpopulation

Competition due to overpopulation, as competition of resources rises, species will fight among each other, and slowly, population will go down. But I don't see the reason of why it would cause an extinction... perhaps a decrease of population. See, once populations starts decreasing, resources will increase. And ONCE resources increase, populations starts increasing, and there goes competition. Resources decreases, populations decreases, and the whole process repeats. So I'm not quite sure whether it will cause extinction of a species.

B. Introduction of Non- native species.

So what does it mean by Non-native species?

It means that species that have no effect and doesn't exist in the ecosystem. So that will definitely not affect the population whatsoever.

C. Catastrophic Events

Well, common sense. Many people died of tsunamis, tornado and other natural disasters every year. Too many disasters can cause the population to cease.

D. Disease

This we can relate, especially the Coronavirus. Many humans died of the deadly virus. Same goes to animals. If a disease gets too deadly, population will decrease and drive the species to extinction.

So, the Answer would be B.

The correct answer is rapids and waterfalls.  

Rapids refers to the segments of streams with extensively vigorous currents, various obstacles, and steps in their streambeds. A waterfall refers to a vertical drop in a stream bed. Both are the locations of vigorous erosion.  

The rapids are generally produced where the resilient bedrock limits a stream to a narrow channel and forces an enhancement in the velocity of water.  

On the other hand, waterfalls are produced where the fast-flowing water negotiates a geologic contact amid the more resilient and less resistant layers of rock, or through a fault, which has analogized distinct kinds of rocks. Or it can be said that waterfalls usually produce at the end of a series of rapids.

Explain why the plant with the mutated psaB gene was dying
erik [133]

As given in the graph, mutation in this gene causes a decline in the production of glucose as it obstruct the process of photosynthesis.

<h3>What is psaB gene?</h3>

P700, the primary electron donor of photosystem I (PSI), as well as the electron acceptors A0, A1, and FX, are bound by PsaA and PsaB.

As given in the graph, mutation in this gene causes a decline in the production of glucose as it obstruct the process of photosynthesis.

Thus, the plant with the mutated psaB gene was dying.
