Habitat fragmentation is usually a reason for species becoming endangered or threatened. The prevalence of viable habitat is critical to the survival of any species, and in various circumstances, the fragmentation of any remaining habitat can result in difficult choices for conservation biologists.  

The fragmentation can result in the extinction of species due to the following factors:  

1. Species can dwindle to extinction due to catastrophes.  

2. Species can dwindle to extinction due to inbreeding.  

3. Species can dwindle to extinction due to loss of genetic variation.

tester [92]

1. One of the main reasons for the extinction of the trees in the Eastern Island is the extinction or sudden demise of the birds that carried the seeds to different places. Some of the human activities would have also led to the process of extinction, like the trees were being cut to construct canoes and to use as tools in order to erect statues, and to burn them for warmth.  

2. There was a need to farm the trees and manage them in a proper framework. For example, if one is having 100 trees, then one should use 33 and then plant 33 seeds, and should always keep 34 intact. One should have not used all the trees at once.

A rock sample has a mass of 16 grams and a volume of 8 cubic centimeters. When the rock is cut in half, what is the volume and d
spayn [35]

Answer:

Volume= 4 cm³

Density= 2 g/cm³

Explanation:

We have the following data:

volume= V= 8 cm³

mass= m= 16 g

The density is the mass per volume of a substance, so the density of the rock is:

density= d= 16 g/8 cm³= 2 g/cm³

When we cut the rock in half, we have a half volume and a half mass:

V= 8 cm³/2= 4 cm³

m= 16 g/2= 8 g

But the density is not altered because it is an intrisic property - it does not change with the amount of subtance. Thus, the density of a half rock is:

d = m/V= 8 g/4 cm³= 2 g/cm³

A stream of water holds thriving bacteria. If drought conditions caused the stream to dry up, how would the bacteria mostly like
Alexeev081 [22]

The answer is they produce endospores.

Explanation:

The endospores are dormant, non-reproductive, tough bacterial spores that ensure the survival of bacteria in adverse conditions.

During the environmental stress, such as starvation, desiccation, radiation and chemical treatment many bacteria form dormant endospores. These endospores germinate again when the conditions become favorable.

Hence, if drought conditions lead the stream to dry up, the bacteria that live there would produce endospores to survive.
