Answer:
the process whereby organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring. The theory of its action was first fully expounded by Charles Darwin and is now believed to be the main process that brings about evolution.
Plant decomposers would operate above the producer level. Two examples are earthworms and fungi. These would decompose dead plant matter into nutrients that are then re-assimilated by plants. Animal decomposers operate within the consumer levels, and would include species such as maggots, shrimp, clams, crabs, lobsters and flat<span>worms</span>. Nutrients recycled by these decomposers would also be recycled back to the producers.
Answer:
One way that Julio can explain such differences is that their environments are very similar and therefore the traits that were best suited for their survival were passed on from generation to generation. The traits that each species developed differently would have been due to their diet. Each species has a different diet and certain traits allow them to more easily hunt/gather the food that they need to survive. For example, grizzly bears and sea otters both eat fish as their main diet and therefore have both developed canine teeth, while rabbit teeth are different due to them only eating vegetation.
Explanation:
The xylem is made from dead, hollow cells.
<span>
Tracheids and vessel elements are the main components of xylem witch have a function to transport water. Those are elongated dead cells at maturity (without protoplast) with a thick, strengthened cellulose cell wall and a hollow lumen. Even though they are dead they still maintain a function, because are being protected by surrounding living cells.</span>
Multicellular is the word you're looking for ;-)
