What is a indicator organisms?

Indicator organisms are organisms that are sensitive to changes in the environment. When populations of indicator species changes, it can signal a change in the environment that will eventually effect other species as well.

Are all organisms that look different from different species?

Not necessarily. Organisms that look different can belong to the same species if they can interbreed and produce fertile offspring. Organisms that look similar can also belong to different species if they are reproductively isolated and cannot interbreed successfully.


What is an indicator species?

An analogous organ is a trait that appears similar in unrelated organisms. It indicates that the unrelated organisms are living in similar environments and have evolved similar characteristics to deal with similar problems.


What do you call a group of similar organisms?

taxonomic key!


Did Charles Darwin realize that organisms of the same species are identical?

Charles Darwin did recognize and categorize numerous species during his career. He also recognized that not all species were identical in all of their outward physical characteristics. He also realized that organisms of the same species were identical. He also observed that organisms living in different places with similar environment were different yet similar, thus concluding that they had the same ancestors.


Organisms that provide an early warning of environmental damage are?

They are called bellwether species, also known as sentinel species.


A group of similar organisms that can produce fertile offspring?

A group of similar organisms that can produce fertile offspring are species.


What characteristics of the species level of organization distinguishes two similar organisms such as ducks and geese as different species?

Organisms are grouped into species according to their outer similarities so ducks and geese must vary enough to be categorized differently.


How are organisms in a species different from othes in their genus?

Organisms in a species share more similar characteristics and can interbreed to produce viable offspring, whereas organisms in the same genus may have more differences but still share some common characteristics. Species are a more specific group than genus. Organisms in the same genus are more closely related than organisms in different genera.


Form of evolution in which different organisms produce species that are similar in appearance and behavior?

Convergent evolution is the form of evolution where different organisms independently evolve similar traits due to similar environmental pressures, even though they are not closely related. This can result in species that appear and behave similarly despite not sharing a recent common ancestor.


Does territorial behavior extend to organisms of different species?

Yes, territorial behavior extends to organisms of different species.
