Options for the question have not been provided. They are as follows:
A) The single intact parcel would have a smaller amount of edge than the 20 separate parcels.
B) The isolated hectare plots increase the ability of individuals to disperse from one habitat to another.
C) The separate 1-hectare plots are less vulnerable to edge effects.
D) The large plot will create more inbreeding in many species.
Answer:
A) The single intact parcel would have a smaller amount of edge than the 20 separate parcels.
Explanation:
In the given case, 20 hectares of land has been allocated to natural habitat. This means that natural flora and fauna will flourish here without any human interference. In this situation it is better to have an intact 20 hectares area at one side of the land, rather than having 20 separately spread out 1 hectare areas. This is because having one large piece of land at one side will reduce the edge effect.
Edges occur where two different habitats meet. While edges can be beneficial when it comes to natural habitats because the boundary habitat increases overall biodiversity, it can be detrimental when the edges are due to human settlements. It will be difficult to avoid human interference as the natural habitats are scattered among human settlements. Each individual plot will also get less area due to which it will be difficult for all the species to accommodate comfortably. Many animals can venture out in search of food which can be dangerous to both animals and humans. It is better to have a big separate land at one corner so that everyone can survive peacefully.
Answer: An adaptation is a change That’s happens to a species of animal over a long period of time. The point of an adaptation is to help the animal survive easier in the wild. An example would be a giraff’s neck. Giraffes adapted to have long necks so that they can reach the leaves on trees.
Explanation:
Answer:
The temperature is staying the same. In the graph when it shows solid/liquid and liquid/gas, the temperature stays the same until it changes. This is because it reached it's melting point/vaporizing point. For example, a solid gets heated up, it then reaches it's melting point but it can't go higher than that because it isn't fully a liquid yet, once it's a liquid it will then continue to rise in temperature.
I don't think I put enough detail into that explanation but I hope this helps your problem.
Hey mate!
You stuck?
Humans use selective breeding to pass desired TRAITS on to the next generation of organisms.
Hope this helped!
