10 points! When looking out of my back door, I see robins, blue jays, finches, crows, hawks and owls all living in the same area

. How is it possible that all of the birds can live in the same area of one another without starving? Be specific!!! (JSYK, this is related to evolution, adaptation, and natural selection)

The possibility for all of the mentioned birds to live all in a same area is because they are all specialized and occupy a certain niche in the food chain, thus not standing in each others ways when it comes to competition for food.

All of these birds have adapted to be able to survive in their respective environment, developing characteristics that will enable them to be superior in something. Through natural selection, the individuals that were performing better, got the chance to mate, thus the offspring was better adapted and stronger in its niche of the food chain.

The robins and the blue jays are birds that are very opportunistic in their food choice, thus giving them greater flexibility and ability to survive, they mostly feed on worms, insects, fruits, vegetables, so they have a big menu.

The finches are specialized in eating nuts and seeds, thus avoiding the competition with the previous two, thus having that food type for themselves.

The owls and hawks are both birds of pray, but the owls hunt mostly at night, while the eagles during the day. Also, the owls prefer to have rodents as their pray, while the hawks are mostly eating other birds, thus not standing in each other's ways.

If natural selection has no foresight, how can it explain features that seem to prepare organisms for future events? for example
Nezavi [6.7K]

The genes in a population give forth the genetic variability across a population (genotypes). In addition, occasional mutations of these genes in a population increase this genetic variability. Hovever, natural selection only favours reproduction of individuals with genes that are favourable in the environment/habitat. Therefore, natural selection has no foresight but is rather pegged on being an ‘opportunistic’ process.

When evacuating victims and endangered personnel in a severe emergency in relation to the support zone where should routes be di
Lorico [155]
When evacuating victims and personnel currently facing danger to their lives, an establishment should have a safe evacuation routes. The evacuation route should be placed in the Exclusion Zone which means that it is a large site with obstructions and not safe until the safety area is reached. Another would be developing the Contamination Reduction Zone which is designed for individuals that are facing chemical dangers. Decontamination while inside the building is inadvised but would be applied in the arrival to the said zone. An access to potential routes should be available. Obstructions like locks, blocked doors are inadvisable. Routes should be free from items that are not needed within the area. Also, multiple routes that are separated from each other is recommended for evacuating numerous amount of people at the same time or when fire blocks one, there would be another choice available.

The rate of O2 production by the light reactions varies with the intensity of light because light is required as the energy sour
kupik [55]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

Yes, the light reactions also depend upon the Calvin cycle. Calvin cycle refers to a phenomenon that is used by the plants and algae to convert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into sugar, the food needed by the autotrophs in order to grow. The plants rely upon the Calvin cycle for food and energy.  

In the given case, the rate of oxygen production would get diminish as the rate of ATP and NADP+ generated by the Calvin cycle diminishes. Of all the outcomes of the Calvin cycle, ADP and NADP+ are the only ones that get utilized by light reactions.  

The ADP and NADP+ are used up by the light reactions to fuel their reactions. This illustrates that if the rate of ADP and NADP+ generated by the Calvin cycle diminishes the production of oxygen by the light reactions also diminishes.
