love history [14]

Answer:

reduction in potential medicines

reduced food supply

Explanation:

The direct consequences of a decrease in angiosperm's biodiversity is a reduction in potential medicines and food supply.

Angiosperm biodiversity (the flowering plants) act as a source of food to several living organisms, including human. This is evident in the practice of farming by humans. Different categories of consumers in the ecosystem depends largely on flowering plants for their food either directly or indirectly.

They also serve as a source of medicine. For example, chloroquine which use to be the major drug against the treatment of malaria was extracted from a flowering plant known as <em>Chinchona pubescens.</em>

<em>Several species of flowering plants remains in the wild whose usefulness are yet to be researched. They represent a source of future food and medicine for man and animals.</em>

<em>Hence, if the diversity of flowering plants is reduced, it is going to have direct consequence of reduction in potential foods and medicine.</em>

hodyreva [135]
<span>Parents can pass on chromosomes to their children that are different than their own when the new gene combinations are created by crossing over. The exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes is known as crossing over which occurs in meiosis. When homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange different segments of the genetic material. As the result, a new combination of genes will be formed. If there was not crossing over, all genes on a chromosome would be inherited together.</span>

How does the frogs vestigial thumb help survival?
Leviafan [203]

Frogs have their way of avoiding the predators like camouflage, squirting the poisonous liquid out of their system and through their vestigial thumbs. This organ helps them by avoiding predation by stealth which makes them quiet and silent in moving so that predators won't notice them readily.
