What is the difference between threatened and extinct?
Extinct means that there are no longer alive and completely dead, the whole species is dead and are no longer on earth alive. But threatened means that they are on the edge of being completely dead.
When do you call a species endangered versus threatened?
A species is considered endangered when it is at a very high risk of extinction in the near future. A species is considered threatened when it is likely to become endangered in the foreseeable future if threats continue.
Differentiaate between endangered species and threatened species?
Threatened means that the animal is vulnerable to extinction and the population of the animal is declining. (ex: Certain species of whale population are being threatened.) Endangered means that the animal will soon be extinct if nothing is done about it. Some endangered animals are being bred in captivity until their numbers increase enough to be released back in the wild. (ex: Bald Eagles are an endangered species of bird. Pandas are an endangered species of bear.) Extinct means that the animal has completely died out and there aren't any left of this species. (ex: Dinosaurs are an extinct species of reptile. Dodo is an extinct bird.) Here's a visual: Threatened-------------> Endangered---------------> Extinct
Is a species that is likely to become extinct if protective measures are not taken immediately?
threatned
What is the difference between an endangered animals vs threatened animals vs an extinct animals?
An extinct animal means there are none left; they all have died. Endangered means there is a small amount left of that animal and they are about to become extinct. Threatened means they are about to become endangered.
What are some characteristics of species likely to become endangered and extinct as a result of human activities?
long-lived individuals become endangered or extinct as a result of human activity.
What is threatened with extinction?
Yes. These species are considerably lower than other species in numbers, due to hunting, habitat destruction, or other means. These animals can have from 1,000 to 10,000 left to be considered endangered. Critically endangered species have 200 or less left.
When will flies become extinct?
Flies will likely continue to evolve for another 1.1 billion years before extinction. The current species will have gone extinct (replaced with a new species of Fly) long before then.
Is threatened the same thing as endangered?
No, "threatened" and "endangered" are not the same. "Threatened" refers to species that are likely to become endangered in the foreseeable future, while "endangered" denotes species that are at immediate risk of extinction. Both terms are used in conservation contexts, but they indicate different levels of risk to species.
Two species have the same niche. What is the most likely outcome when one species is the superior competitor?
The superior competitor is likely to outcompete the other species for resources, leading to a decrease in the population of the inferior competitor. This could potentially lead to the inferior competitor being displaced or evolving to occupy a different niche to reduce competition.
Will redheads become extinct?
No, blondes are just as likely to become extinct as redheads are.
A threatened species is likely to have _____ than an endangered species?
larger populations
