katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

sympatric speciation

Explanation:

Species of fruit fly larvae in the genus Rhagoletis each feed on a particular kind of fruit. Rhagoletis pomonella feeds on the small red fruit of the hawthorn tree. In 1865, farmers in the Hudson River valley found that R. pomonella flies had begun attacking their apples and then spread to apple orchards in adjacent areas of Massachusetts and Connecticut. These now separate varieties of flies, the apple and haw flies, usually don't interbreed with each other because their periods of mating coincide with the different ripening times of apples and hawthorn fruit. Each variety is becoming specialized to feed and reproduce in its own particular microhabitat and may be transitioning to separate species.If the apple and haw flies become distinct enough to be separate species, their evolution is an example of sympatric speciation

Many countries are cutting down forests to make way for agriculture and roads. How might this practice disrupt the carbon cycle?
aev [14]

Answer:

Understanding the carbon cycle and how it behaves requires that we think of it as a complex dynamic system with components of the system interacting with each other in often unpredictable and emergent ways. A change in one part of a complex system can often cause a myriad of changes in other parts of the system. The Amazon forest ecosystem is a good example of a complex ecosystem currently undergoing changes.
