Threatend Species
Speciation is the best term to describe a new species developing from an existing one.
The term that describes the behaviors between males and females of the same species for the purposes of mating is "courtship". Most animals have a courtship ritual, such as dancing, touching or showing how beautiful they are.
The term for the role a species has in its environment is its ecological niche. This includes the way the species interacts with its habitat and other species, as well as its position in the food chain and how it helps to shape the ecosystem.
The proper term for having separate sexes is dioecious. This means that individual organisms within a species are either male or female.
microevolution
microevolution
"Microevolution" describes changes that occur within a species over time, affecting traits such as color, size, or behavior. These changes are brought about by factors like natural selection, genetic drift, and mutations.
The term that best describes two species interacting so closely that they are adapted to each other is "coevolution." This process occurs when the evolutionary changes in one species directly influence the evolutionary changes in another, often seen in mutualistic relationships, predator-prey dynamics, or parasitic interactions. Coevolution highlights the interconnectedness of species within an ecosystem and their adaptive responses to one another.
Species richness
The term that best describes the result of a new species evolving from an existing species is "speciation." This process occurs when populations of a species become reproductively isolated and undergo genetic changes over time, leading to the emergence of distinct species. Speciation can occur through various mechanisms, including allopatric, sympatric, and parapatric speciation.

extinction
Extinction
The term that describes an action that changes the relationship between a living thing and its environment is "ecological disturbance." This refers to any event or process that alters the structure of an ecosystem and affects the organisms living within it.
