A, B and C are the events that will cause an ecological disturbance.
Rationale:
A. Introduction of a new species: When a new specie is introduced, it increases the competition in ecosystem with the native species for food, water, space and shelter. This affects the reproductive success of the native species and thus the dynamics of ecosystem.
B. Climate change: Climate change is different from a simple change of weather. The best example would be of Antarctica where the ice is melting fast due to the global warming. The native species find it harder to adapt to the warm temperatures.
C. Late spring snowstorm: Spring is the season where the plants grow and animals shed their fur. When snowstorms occur in this season they harm these plants and animals that live there.
The answer is c.the individual will have an extar chromosome resulting from non-disjunction
The answer is D its tightly packed cells allow for proctection against harmful substances.
Answer:
Biodiversity is a variation of organisms (plants, animals and bacteria) in the world or a specific habitat. Biodiversity helps to keep an ecosystem healthy because there is more variation of food and different organisms can rely on each other for survival. Also it offers a larger more reliable food chain and if one species is suddenly wiped out, it won't impact the ecosystem as much as it would if the biodiversity was smaller.
Explanation:
D. A struggle for existence is apparent.
If a struggle for existence is apparent, natural selection occurs because all of the weak/unfit/unadapted ones die.
