What causes weather and climate?

Type your answer here... The changing pattern of land and the increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere due to the running of vehicles and deforestation results in the formation of weather and climate.


What are the pressures of natural selection?

Everything from available food to climate will cause the changes we see in natural selection. Random mutations occur constantly and when those mutations are beneficial for life, the genetic code is more likely to be passed on to future generations.


What is the mechanism that allows organisms to evolve?

1) Natural Selection 2) Climate changes 3) Geographical events 4) Radiations of organism into new habitats 5) Changes in ecosystem 6) Changes in continental position Above are mechanisms of selection, the environment, basically. Mechanisms of evolution are; mutation, gene flow. genetic drift and most importantly for adaptive changes, natural selection


How does a species survive a climate change over thousands of years?

It is possible for a species to survive a climate change that happens slowly over a thousand years:The climate change may not be significant enough to harm the species.The species itself may be flexible enough to not be affected by the climate change,As the climate changes, those on the outer skirts of the climate change area may be attracted to more hospitable areas and survive. Those that don't move may perish.Each new generation may result in variations (mutations) to the species. Some of the variants may be able to live in the new climate conditions. Those that can't will perish.


Is it true that one biome may be made up of areas around the world that have the same climate and organisms?

Although the same type of biome can appear in many areas around the world, they are often different. Climate and conditions make them similar, but they all have variations in species found. For instance both the African and Amazon rainforests make up the rainforest biome, but they are quite different.
