Answer:

The best clue that can be used to decide living thing or not a living thing is the observation of living or dead cells present in the specimen. All the living or dead organisms exhibit cells. Cell is a structural and functional unit of life. The growth and metabolism of living organism are dependent upon a cell. A cell in a life form exhibit organelles and components which are not found in non-living objects.

Aleksandr [31]

A conversational plan with two habitat preserves, measuring a total of 20 square kilometers combined will preserve more species because this cause segregation of species based on their adaptability towards a safer and secure environment. For example if a lion and deer try to live in the same conservation area, then it’s obvious that the life of deer is always at risk. But in cases of segregated preserved areas both herbivorous and carnivorous animals can live separately. Also if there is special inclination of one species towards other then also these two species can live separately.  

Segregation also enhances the diversity in the sense that it could lead to a new ecosystem with a new ecological balance within it. Conservation biologists focus on these areas as they claim that  where the greatest number of unique species can be found and protected with in the large number of reserve areas with the least amount of effort

Which freshwater source is a permanent shallow body of water with plant life throughout? lake pond reservoir wetland
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Pond

Explanation:

Ponds are inland water bodies that are usually smaller in surface area than a lake and nonflowing in contrast to rivers or streams. However, a pond is a shallow freshwater source that inhabits organisms' life (plants and animals alike).

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Evaporation – Evaporation happens when heat from the Sun turns liquid water into water vapor (gas). About 90% of the water in the atmosphere comes from evaporation. Most evaporation occurs in the oceans, because they cover so much of Earth's surface. The sweat evaporates into the air.
