"Adaptive radiation is the evolution of ecological and phenotypic diversity within a rapidly multiplying lineage. It involves the differentiation of a single ancestor into an array of species that inhabit a variety of environments and that differ in the morphological and physiological traits used to exploit those environments."
--Dolph Schlueter, The Ecology of Adaptive Radiation,Oxford University Press, p.10
What else can I help you with?
What contributed to the adapted radiation of mammals?
the extinction of most dinosours
What is radiation?
The process of exposing an object to nuclear radiation.
What is the procees of producing radiation called?
The process of producing radiation is called ionizing radiation. This type of radiation is created when an atom undergoes a process that results in the removal of an electron, leading to the formation of ions that can then emit radiation.
Does an MRI emit radiation during the imaging process?
No, an MRI does not emit radiation during the imaging process.
What is the suffix of radiation?
The suffix of radiation is -tion. This suffix means the process of.
Is alpha decay the same as alpha radiation?
No. Decay is the process, radiation is the product.
What is the meaning of radiation as used in term adaptive radiation?
In this context, radiation means divergence: the emergence of multiple populations, each adapted to their particular niche or otherwise changing relative to their ancestors and siblings, from a common ancestor.
How does an oven utilize radiation in its cooking process?
An oven utilizes radiation in its cooking process by using heating elements to generate infrared radiation. This radiation heats up the food inside the oven, cooking it evenly and efficiently.
What is radiation exposure safety?
Radiation exposure safety is the process of preventing or minimizing exposure to radiation, and tracking what does occur.
What is the process in which nuclei lose energy by emitting radiation called?
The process in which nuclei lose energy by emitting radiation is called radioactive decay. This process can involve the emission of alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays, or other forms of radiation.
The process that powers plate traction’s is?
Radiation
What food-making process are leaves adapted to carry out?
Photosynthesis
