I believe it is fale because the most productive ocean systems tend to be coral reef which are close to shore not in open ocean
Answer:
D. A population with high genetic biodiversity is better able to respond to environmental stressors.
Explanation:
The genetic biodiversity of a species is the diversity of alleles that it possesses in its genetic pool. For a given gene, a population can have one or more alleles; and the more alleles the population has, it will be more diverse. Under normal conditions (without stress), the alleles that are present in high frequency in a population, are those that best respond to the environment where the population occurs. However, if some environmental condition changes and some type of environmental stress emerge (ie drought), it is possible that these alleles no longer respond equally effectively and then, it is possible that the alleles that on normal conditions occur with low frequency, are more adequate to face the stress. A population with fewer alleles (less genetic diversity) has terefore fewer options to deal with environmental stressors and<u> a population with high genetic biodiversity</u> will do this better.
The graph would be the 4th picture, a bell-shaped graph.
The optimum temperature should have the highest rate of enzyme activity. When the temperature is increased or decreased, the enzyme activity would be decreased. The graph that follows both conditions should have a bell shape graph.
Answer: Speciation
Speciation is biological process in which new species are formed from the existing species. This occurs when the members of the population gets separated from others by a geographical, behavioral or other barriers. Such separated organism develop traits with the course of evolution, which makes them reproductively isolated with the parent population. The speciation can be of two types:
1. Allopatric speciation: The separated population evolve into separate species due to a geographical isolation.
2. Sympatric speciation: The separated population evolve into separate species without any geographical isolation.
