Why does a diagram look more like a bush than a straight line

Biology
1 answer:
blagie [28]2 years ago
8 0

Answer: The reason why an evolutionary diagram looks more like a bush than a straight line is the development of new species.

To be more clear - initially we can have one species, and that species will over time start to live in multiple different environments. As the species starts to adapt to the new environment, its appearance and genetics are gradually changing in order for it to have more advantageous traits to survive in the environment. As the time passes, the changes that will emerge in some members will create a new species, and that process will constantly go on, until extinction that is. So we have one species that is an ancestor of multiple new species, thus the family tree, or rather evolutionary diagram, starts to branch out, and as the time passes, it will branch out more and more and take a bush-like looks.

16. Explain why pollution caused the shift in the phenotypes of the peppered moth during the Industrial Revolution. (2pts)
andrey2020 [161]

Answer/Explanation:

Pollution during the industrial revolution caused trees to become covered with soot, making them darker. This dark appearance meant that the peppered moth, which usually had a light colour, was clearly visible against the tree. This meant it was easier for predators to identify. As a result, their numbers decreased because they were an easier target.

However, there was also a rarer form of the moth, which was dark in colour. These were initially very rare. However, because of the change in the tree colour owing to the industrial revolution, these moths were better suited to the environment, as they were more camouflaged against the dark tree. This meant it was easier for them to avoid predators, and so they were more likely to survive to reproductive age and pass on the genes that produce the dark colour.  This meant that the dark moths increased in number.

What do birds short necks help them to do? pls help :/
Fiesta28 [93]

Explanation:

Most diving birds have (relatively) long necks and shorts legs, although their necks aren't as long as say herons, storks or egrets. Take the common loon for instance. Their necks can be up to half as long as their bodies but their legs are so short and set so far back that they are very awkward on land.
