Approximately 14,000 years ago, the climate in North America began to warm rapidly. At the same time, human hunters migrated to the continent. Which of these most likely resulted from a combination of these two factors? an increase in the rate of large mammal extinctions a reduction in the rate of species change an increase in the amount of interspecies cooperation a reduction in the total number of small parasitic insects
Since different species may occupy the same habitat, explain why they continue to remain separate species? Adaptive radiation is when populations diverge from a common ancestor into new species, each of which is adapted to its own unique niche. Provide evidence to highlight an example as to how this may have occurred in some of the species of penguins. What types of biological evidence would you need to look at to determine evolutionary relatedness between penguin species? **ALL ANSWERS ARE ABOUT THE SPECIES OF PENGUINS**

4.2 Answer these "a, b, c" questions, well detailed with a lot of information filled in. It is important to answer with more than 500 to 700 words per paragraph of each question. A)Explains and demonstrates the right terminology about ecosystems and population size to talk about beluga. B) Include visual elements, photos to accompany your explanation.
Primates are examples of: a. density-dependent species b. density-independent species c. r-selected species d. K-selected species
A, B, C, and D are all species that live in arctic climates. Note that species B's temperature ranges in the winter, while species C's temperature ranges in the winter and summer.Given the above information on the species' metabolism and body temperatures, please answer the following questions. Between Species A and Species D-- Which species is likely to be larger? Question options: Species A Species D Which species is most likely an ectotherm? Question options: Species A Species B Species C Species D Which species is most likely practicing hibernation? Question options: Species A Species B Species C Species D
The type III survivorship curve is found in species in which most individuals die when they are young but a relatively small number of older individuals can live for a long time. Many of these organisms have very long lifespans. This would appear to contradict the evolutionary theory of aging because most individuals die when young but lifespan is long. How can you explain this apparent contradiction. Group of answer choices -older, larger individuals have most of the offspring -all type III organisms have very slow metabolisms -type III organisms are trying to prove evolution wrong -type III organisms die at a constant rate
Figure 47.16 Which of the following statements is not supported by this graph? There are more vulnerable fishes than critically endangered and endangered fishes combined. There are more critically endangered amphibians than vulnerable, endangered and critically endangered reptiles combined. Within each group, there are more critically endangered species than vulnerable species. A greater percentage of bird species are critically endangered than mollusk species.
What does the study of the European Brown Bear suggest about humans and animal extinctions? It supports the Overkill Hypothesis, where human hunting results in mass extinctions It shows that warming summer temperatures was the main reason for bear extinctions It shows how a combination of climate change and human hunting can drive species extinctions It shows how extinctions only occur during periods of climate warming It suggests that the Romans were likely responsible for earlier megafaunal extinctions in Europe
Which of the following scenarios best explains how resource partitioning can lead to adaptive radiation? The lack of competition between individuals leads to better survival and reproduction rates. The utilization of different resources requires different adaptations, selecting for different traits. The lack of competition leads to a more balanced ecosystem, resulting in more offspring. There is no connection between adaptive radiation and the resource partitioning in nature.
Which of the following pairs of organisms are most closely related? a sharks and amphibians b ray-finned fish and amphibians c rabbits and birds d primates and rabbits
How does extirpation differ from extinction? Group of answer choices Extinction and extirpation are the same thing. Extirpation is the loss of a single population, while extinction is the loss of an entire species. Extinction only happens during a mass extinction. Extinction is the loss of a single population, while extirpation is the loss of an entire species.
