Their bodies aren't adapted to the new environment yet.
What else can I help you with?
How might enviromental factors might cause extinction?
Well, environmental factors like climate change can cause a species to die out because they were not able to adapt to their environment.
Why can change in a species environment cause extinction?
because of the habitat!
What factors generally cause mass extinction?
Factors that generally cause mass extinction include natural disasters (such as asteroid impacts or volcanic eruptions), climate change, environmental changes, and human activities like deforestation, pollution, and habitat destruction. These factors can disrupt ecosystems and lead to the widespread extinction of various species.
What could cause an extinction of global species?
Climate change, people slaughtering too many of the species, lack of food, ect.
If a certain species has little genetic variation what could lead to its rapid extinction?
A lack of genetic variation can make a species less able to adapt to changing environmental conditions or new threats like diseases or predators. This reduced ability to adapt increases the species' vulnerability to extinction if they cannot effectively respond to these challenges.
Can floods cause the extinction of a species?
Yes.
What is one gradual change that can cause a mass extinction?
One gradual change that can cause a mass extinction is climate change. If the Earth's temperature rises or falls significantly over time, it can disrupt ecosystems and lead to the extinction of many species that are unable to adapt quickly enough to the new conditions. This can result in a cascading effect on other species within the ecosystem, ultimately leading to a mass extinction event.
What of these is not a reason that species become extinct?
Which of these is not a reason that species become extinct
What environmental changes are you facing today that may cause extinction?
pollution
What is the primary cause of species extinction today?
I know sick duhh
What a cause of natural selection?
The cause of natural selection is a change in the environment of a species. This change can have many causes. E.g. climate change, introduction of a new species, flooding, etc. When such an environmental change occurs, the individuals which are the most fit will have the biggest probability to survive and change the relative gene frequency in a species' genetic pool.
How does overspecialization cause extinction?
Overspecialization can lead to extinction by making a species overly reliant on a narrow range of resources or specific environmental conditions. When changes occur—such as habitat loss, climate shifts, or the introduction of new competitors—overspecialized species may struggle to adapt or find alternative resources, leading to population decline. Additionally, their limited genetic diversity can reduce resilience to diseases and environmental changes, further increasing extinction risk. Thus, overspecialization can severely limit a species' ability to survive in a changing world.
