What is a nonnative species?
A species that does not normally live in an area
What is the definition of a generalist species?
A generalist species is a species that is the ultimate survivor. A generalist species can thrive in a variety of environments and make use of a variety of resources.
What are plant species?
plant make thier own species
How is Mechanical transmission differ from biological transmission?
Mechanical transmission does not involove any infection of the transmitter. The pathogen does not grow or multiply inside the transmitter and no intermediat developement of the pathogen occurs until it is transmitted to host by the transmitter. Biological transmission does include developement of the pathogen inside the transmitter species.
Why does a sexually-reproducing species have an advantage over asexually-reproducing species?
Sexually-reproducing species have an advantage over asexually-reproducing species in their ability to use two different sex cells.
Why are experiments that involve transplanting species conducted today?
There are no criteria to determine if they are successful
When did Mendel and Darwin develop ideas together?
Mendel conducted his experiments between 1856 and 1863.Darwin created his theory of natural selection in 1838 and published On the Origin of Species in 1859.
What does the scienntific name of species involve?
The Genus name + species name
What part of a research report should include a description of the species in the environment in which the experiment is conducted?
The introduction should include a description of the species in the environment in which the experiment is being conducted.
What are some verbs starting with x?
X-ray, xerox, and xenonate are some verbs that start with the letter "x."
What is xenotransplation?
The correct word you might be looking for is "xenotransplantation" (xeno-transplant-ation). Xenotransplantation is taking live cells or tissue from one species and transplanting them into another species.. for example, transplanting a heart valve from a pig into a human. You can find more info on it by looking up "medical grafting". When a transplant comes from a human and goes into another human, as in a liver or heart transplant, it's called "allotransplantation".
Why do creatures involve themselves in reproduction?
animals have to reproduce because they have to keep their species alive. If they don't then their species will become extinct.
Through what protein experiments with sea urchin demonstrated species specific sperm-egg recognition?
avidin
Which of the two methods for determining the species taxon would involve greater subjectivity?
Using morphological characteristics for species identification would involve greater subjectivity compared to using genetic analysis. Morphological characteristics can be influenced by factors such as environment and individual variation, leading to potential misinterpretation, while genetic analysis provides a more objective and precise method for species identification.
What did Edward Tilman's ecological experiments indicate?
Edward Tilman's ecological experiments indicated that species diversity plays a crucial role in ecosystem stability and productivity. His experiments showed that more diverse plant communities were better able to resist invasive species and recover from disturbances than less diverse communities. This suggests that biodiversity is vital for the resilience and functioning of ecosystems.
Are there any animals that are endangered due to animal testing?
Animal experimentation, while an emotive subject and considered by many to be abhorrent, particularly when conducted unnecessarily, is highly unlikely to lead to the extinction of any species, since laboratory animals usually need to be specially bred for this work and bear little relationship to that type of animal in the wild or in a domestic situation. Traditional purpose-bred lab animals such as white or hairless mice, for example, couldn't live in the wild, and don't do well as pets. Experiments conducted on wild or domestic animals are more likely to be of a non-invasive nature, also unlikely to result in extinction. Extinction of some species has been, and remains, a result of human intervention in a species' environment, for farming, housing, and so on, or of hunting, neither of which are conducted as legitimate experiments. The closest example of animal experimentation leading to extinction would be scientific gathering of animals on the verge of extinction by being killed to provide examples of rare species for museums and scientific study. Thankfully this hasn't happened for a century or more, but in its day it was considered scientifically valid.
When do species compete in an ecosystem?
Since food and other resources are limited, the members of a species must compete with each other to survive. Competition does not always involve direct physical fights between members of a species. Instead, competition is usually indirect.
