Answer:
D. Changing land use and burning fossil fuels.
Explanation:
Today, the carbon cycle is changing. Humans are moving more carbon into the atmosphere from other parts of the Earth system. More carbon is moving to the atmosphere when fossil fuels, like coal and oil, are burned. More carbon is moving to the atmosphere as humans get rid of forests by burning the trees.
Answer:
Food insecurity
Explanation:
Food insecurity is a situation that occurs when people do not have adequate reliable access to enough healthy and nourishing food which they require for their growth and development and an active and healthy life. Food insecurity causes famine and hunger. Certain factors such as lack of food, instability, inappropriate utilization and insufficient access over a particular period of time may result in food insecurity.
Anything that relates to sexual reproduction (gametes coming together to fertilize) should be crossed off.
Not much context was provided but you can look back to some other questions I've answered, I have a full in-depth answer to the same question another person had.
Answer:
Two adaptations of Darwin's Finches that helped them to survive are:
- Behavioral adaptations to use tools for foraging.
Explanation:
There are fourteen species of Darwin's finches that originated from a single species of ground dwelling seed eating finch.
These Finches occupied different niche in the Galapagos island and were widely studied by Darwin.
These finches are one of the best Examples of Adaptive radiation.
Studies state that during severe drought in Galapagos island most vegetation dried out and a few softer seeds were left.
These few seeds were quickly fed upon by the birds and only dry , hard seeds were left.
Only birds who had large and hard beaks could feed on these hard dry seeds.
To Ensure survival the Finches developed adaptations which resulted in hard and large beaks so that they can feed on those dried hard seed.
Some groups started feeding on insects and got their beaks adapted to capture and kill insects.
Second line of adaptation included changes in behaviour and cognitive intelligence where birds started using tools for foraging.
