What happens when you remove a large family from their home? They start to scatter, looking for more land to live in/on. By removing rocks in a desert ecosystem, you're removing the lizards natural habitat. This causes many things to happen like taking away hiding places, a cool rock to sleep under during the day or easy land to dart over. This will also effect their predators in good and bad ways. Good because it'll be more for them to catch but bad because that could also be their natural habitat. Their's a chain reaction of problems that could happen.

If there are no rocks in a desert then the prey would rapidly decrease due to no rocks for shelter or hiding, once they do food will be scarce for the predators causing the predator population to also decrease meaning that the life in the desert will decrease by 80%, leaving barely any wildlife left.

Answer:

Humans are now responsible for causing changes in the environment that hurt animals and plant species. We take up more space on Earth for our homes and cities. We pollute habitats. We illegally hunt and kill animals. We bring exotic species into habitats. All of these activities take resources and habitats away from plants and animals.

Which plane divides the body into superior and inferior portions
erma4kov [3.2K]

Transverse plane divides the body into superior and inferior portions, that is, is the horizontal plane that divides the body into an upper and lower half.

The planes are reference lines that divide the body (or section it) to make it easier to visualize a structure.

Transverse planes are planes that cross the body at right angles to the coronal and median planes, dividing the body into upper and lower parts.

The axes of this plane are the transverse or horizontal and the anteroposterior, thus we can describe more medial or lateral and more anterior or posterior structures.

Between two horizontal planes, one will be more superior or cephalic (close to the head) and the other more inferior towards the feet (caudal).

Therefore, we can conclude that the planes are reference lines that divide the body and that allow us to understand the direction of the structures of our organism, where the transverse plane divides the body into superior and inferior portions.

Explain the reason that many organisms found in the oceanic zone are unique and cannot be found anywhere else. Be sure to includ
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are four ocean zones named as the neritic zone, midnight zone, twilight zone and abyssal zone depending upon the depth of water and the availability of sunlight. Other factors like pressure, oxygen, salinity contributes to the diversity of organisms found and develop in these zones. These factors also makes the organism unique in forms due to living in the oceanic zone.  

The two adaptations are as follows:

1. Many organisms which live in the neritic zone are adapted to bouyancy. Some organisms float to conserve the energy for swimming, others float to fatch food near the surface of shallow waters.  

2. The animals in the twilight or disphotic zone are adapted to live life in darkness which is found in cold water and high pressure. They have adaptations such ability to see in dark waters and they produce  bioluminescence to catch food in darkness.
