<span>Soft-shell is a term that is used in the culinary field. Crabs shell softens when their exoskeleton and remain soft from the shedding. Crabbers with the knowledge of their field know when crabs are prime to catch with a soft-shell in order to keep the shells from hardening.</span>
The theory was originally developed as island biogeography, to explain species richness of actual islands, principally oceanic. It proposes that the number of species found in an undisturbed insular environment is determined by immigration and extinction.
Explanation:
Wilson of Harvard, developed a theory of "island biogeography" to describe such uneven distributions. They suggested that the number of species on any island displays a balance within the rate at which new species establish it and the rate at which residents of secured species become extinct.
Answer:
Transitional fossils show how a particular taxa accumulated adaptations to fit particular environments and/or ecological niches
Explanation:
Transitional fossils are fossilized remains of taxonomic groups/species that illustrate an evolutionary transition between a known version of a taxa/species and the current taxa/species. Transitional fossils are fundamental because they can be clearly differentiated from the ancestral group as well as of its derived descendant group. For example, there exist transitional fossils known as "mammal-like reptiles"(i.e., therapsids that gave rise to the true mammals), which are clearly different from current mammals.
