What is the 1 cause for extinction?
The primary cause for extinction is habitat destruction. When natural habitats are destroyed or altered due to activities like logging, urban development, or agriculture, species lose their homes and struggle to survive.
When the last member of a species dies is said to have occurred.?
the answer to the question is extinction
What is the disappearance of a species from all part of an environment?
The disappearance of a species from all parts of an environment is known as extinction. This occurs when the last existing member of a species dies, leading to its complete disappearance from the planet. Extinction can be caused by various factors, including habitat destruction, climate change, pollution, and hunting.
What statement describing a cause of extinction includes the other three?
member of extinct species lacked adaption essential for survival
Ice ages can cause the extinction of animals because of a lack of?
Ice ages can cause the extinction of animals because of a lack of suitable habitats and food sources. The extreme cold temperatures and ice cover can also disrupt ecosystems and lead to a decrease in biodiversity. Additionally, the pressure from changing environmental conditions can be too much for some species to adapt and survive.
What is background extinctions?
A background extinction is the continuous extinction of individual species caused by climate change, disease, loss of habitat, and competitive disadvantages against other species. Background extinctions occur at a slow rate over time, affecting only a few species at one time.
Can hunting cause extinction?
Yes, hunting can cause extinction. Hunting destroys the animals life.
What may cause elephant extinction?
Human activity and pollution will probably be the greatest cause of elephant extinction.
How are background extinction and mass extinction similar?
Both involve at least a few species dying out because of failure to adapt to the changing environment.
What cannot cause extinction?
sunlight
Can cannibalism cause extinction?
Yes it can
Why do you think most extinction's occur as background extinctions?
Most extinctions occur as background extinctions because they are longer time periods unlike the shorter mass extinctions which there were only two in the Paleozoic era, the Ordovician mass extinction, and the Permian/Triassic extinction in which 95% of all marine animals became extinct

What may cause the extinction of the leopard?
poaching.
Can floods cause the extinction of a species?
Yes.
What are the different types and rates of extinction?
Extinction can be categorized into several types, including background extinction, which occurs at a relatively constant rate due to normal evolutionary processes, and mass extinction, where a significant percentage of species dies out in a relatively short geological period, often due to catastrophic events. The rates of extinction vary widely; background extinction rates are estimated at about 1 species per million per year, while mass extinctions can result in the loss of 75% or more of species within a few million years. Current biodiversity assessments suggest that human activities are accelerating extinction rates, potentially leading to a sixth mass extinction, with estimates suggesting rates up to 1,000 times higher than the background rate.
A lack of diversity in a population could possibly cause what?
It could cause extinction !!
