How can scientists use fossils to determine environmental change?
fossils are used to determine the history of changes in environment and organisms because to see how they lived long ago on the environment and things like that
The maximum number of organisms an environment can support over a long period of time is?
Carrying Capacity
What is native organisms?
A native organism is one that has been in the area long enough to have modified and adapted to best thrive in that environment. It and the other native organisms have achieved a stable, self-sustaining ecosystem in which each organism has a niche.
Bad effect of physical and chemical change on the environment?
Examples of physical changes: transformation of clouds (water as gas) in rain (water as liquid), transformation of rain (liquid) in snow or ice (solids), etc. Examples of chemical changes: formation of smogs, acid rains, water bodies pollution, etc.
How an organism has changed over time?
Organisms can change over time through the process of evolution, which occurs through natural selection, genetic drift, gene flow, and mutation. These changes can lead to the development of new traits or adaptations that help the organism survive in its environment. Over long periods of time, these changes can eventually result in the formation of new species.

Why is it important for organisms to respond to the environment?
Because they compete for food and space. And: An ecosystem is a place were biotic (organisms are anyhing that are living which is aka biotic) and abiotic (non- living things) interact so if ecosystems never existed we'd all be dead. Ecosystems are also where biotic and biotic interact. Organisms rely on eachother to survive.
Which life characteristics describes a long term response to the environment?
adaptation
The ability of a living organism to react and respond called?
The ability of an organism to react to stimuli from its environment or habitat is known as adaptation. Without being able to adapt, organisms would be unable to cope in the long term even with the most minor of changes. It would be like trying to bend a metal ruler with you hands.
What can Organisms adapt?
Organisms can adapt to their habitat or environment. If they don't adapt, then they may not survive long enough to reproduce.
What are harmful effects of changes in matter?
Changes in matter can lead to harmful effects such as environmental pollution, release of toxic chemicals, and alterations in ecosystem balance. These changes can disrupt natural processes, harm living organisms, and have long-term negative impacts on the environment and human health.
How do organisms use cysts?
The cyst enables many organisms to survive in the environment for long periods of time without need for food or water
What are some short term and long term changes that are happening in your environment?
Short term changes in my environment may include fluctuations in temperature and weather conditions, while long term changes could involve shifts in vegetation patterns or changes in ecosystems due to climate change. Both short term and long term changes can impact the overall health and stability of the environment.
Changes over a long period of time for an organism to better survive in its environment?
adaptation
How does observable changes suppport evolution?
Observable changes in organisms over time, such as changes in physical traits or behaviors, provide evidence for evolution by natural selection. These changes illustrate how species can adapt to their environment through genetic variation and selection pressures, leading to the evolution of new species over long periods of time. By studying observable changes, scientists can better understand the mechanisms driving evolution.
The maximum number of organisms an environment can support over a long period of time is?
Carrying Capacity
What do living things to survive?
Living things or "organisms" adapt to their environment in order to survive. Natural selection is one of the mechanisms of evolution and organisms that are the fittest will produce more viable offspring and their genotype will be carried on. The only mechanism that allows organisms to physically and genetically "change" is mutation. This occurs over long periods of time (eg: millions of years) and if the mutation makes the organism stronger and better than the new gene will remain present in the gene pool.
