What is the habitat of a gymnosperm?

Gymnosperms can be found in a variety of habitats, including temperate forests, boreal forests, and mountainous regions. They are typically adapted to survive in environments with colder temperatures and limited water availability.


Why might extremely destructive mutations rarely be passed on to offspring?

Extremely destructive mutations often result in reduced viability or infertility, making it less likely for affected individuals to reproduce. Natural selection also plays a role in removing harmful mutations from the gene pool, as individuals with severe mutations are less likely to survive long enough to pass on their genes to the next generation.


Does a temperate forest have coniferous trees?

There is a bit of "transition" between areas of permafrost and the coniferous forests, but yes, a few trees will grow over permafrost. These trees will grow if there is sufficient "relief" in the form of seasonal thawing. That thawing allows soil of sufficient depth to unfreeze and support a larger plant like a tree. Trees would need a little longer period of thawing and enough of the soil to thaw so they can survive than, say, bushes, shrubs or flowering plants like those of the tundra.


What is a species that can live under a wide range of living conditions?

The cockroach is a species known for its ability to adapt and thrive in a wide range of living conditions, from tropical to temperate climates. They can survive on a variety of food sources and are resilient to many environmental stressors.
