Gause's experiments on two species of paramecium with very similar niches allowed him to formulate the principle of competitive

exclusion. however, he also performed a similar experiment with a third species of paramecium that spends more time swimming on the bottom of the jars, and this species was able to coexist with the first which spent more time in the middle of the jars. what ecological principle does this second experiment illustrate?

The given example suggests the principle of resource partitioning.

The resource partitioning is a method of division of resources present in a particular niche to avoid the competition. In this case, the organism divide the regions having the abundant resources and they do not interfere in each others region.

In this case, the resource partition takes place by dividing the regions in the flask. one species use he resources present in the middle region and other uses the resource in the bottom.

An increased rate of breathing as a result of an increased buildup of carbon dioxide in the bloodstream would be best described
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer;

Responsiveness

Excretion

Explanation;

Excess carbon dioxide must be removed from the body to stop it reaching toxic levels. As the blood flows through the lungs, excess carbon dioxide passes out of the blood and into the alveoli by diffusion. It is then removed from the lungs when we exhale (breathe out).

-Carbon dioxide helps remove carbon dioxide (a waste gas that can be toxic) from your body. The lungs' intake of oxygen and removal of carbon dioxide is called gas exchange. Gas exchange is part of breathing.

Pampas and Patagonia

The Pampas are prolific South American marshes that comprise more than 750,000 km2 and combine the Argentine territories of Buenos Aires, La Pampa, Santa Fe, Entre Ríos and Cordoba. The vast fields are a common region, suspended only by the low Ventana and Tandil hills, near Bahia Blanca and Tandil Argentina, with an elevation of 1,300 m (4,265 ft) and 500 m (1,640 ft), sequentially.

Patagonia is a sparsely populated area at the southerly end of South America, administered by Argentina and Chile. The district encompasses the southerly segment of the Andes hills and the sands, pampas, and meadows to the east. Patagonia is one of the rare areas with shores on three oceans, with the Pacific Ocean to the westward, the Atlantic Ocean to the east, and the Southern Ocean to the South land.

What evidence supports the argument that human activities are causing major changes global systems?
Nata [24]

Answer and Explanation:

Humans are one of the most powerful biotic factors. Human  activities have had great influence on the distribution of other organisms. The use of aerosols and industrial chemicals like chlorofluorocarbons which are residual and persistent can cause depletion of the ozone layer. This results in harmful radiations from the sun reaching the earth's surface.

Excessive production of CO2 by the industries and removal of vegetation like the trees results in the accumulation of CO2 in the lower atmosphere. This causes the greenhouse effect which results in global warming.

Radioactive emission from nuclear reactors, mine and radioactive wastes causes cancer, mutations and even death.
