The Collision of Cultures: Great Biological Exchange The Great Biological Exchange was when the Europeans first came into contact with the Native Americans and exchanged many different things with each other. It was a diffusion of the two groups’ biological systems. Neither group has never seen some of the plants‚ animals‚ and devices that were exchanged between them. The Native Americans introduced the Europeans to plants such as peanuts‚ peppers‚ cacao‚ and chicle. On the other hand‚ the Europeans

As stated in our reading‚ “Europeans were the original ones to introduce the Columbian exchange and the collision of humanities that took place in the New World. The results of contact were generally bad: the tale is mostly one of hunger‚ disease‚ and death.” [Work Cited. #1] Disease affected everyone‚ and unfortunately the results were not pretty. The Columbian Exchange was a crossover of agriculture‚ animals‚ and diseases that came from one society to the next. The more the Spanish people came

Turritopsis nutricula is a kind of jellyfish that is known today as the only “immortal species” in the world. This organism is very lucky to be gifted with such characteristic of reversing its life cycle. It has actually escaped the shackles of biological death. They may be small in size but they are terribly increasing in number due to

The power to make your own decisions and not have your choices determined by your genes and your past shows that the philosophy of free will is the most compelling philosophy. Naturalism is the philosophy that we‚ as humans‚ are influenced completely by our genes. The genes we were created and born with do not control the choices we make. If genes were the only things that influenced a person’s decisions‚ then scientists would be able to invent a machine that could make its own decisions and have

October 23‚ 2012 Ad. Biology‚ Period G Interspecific and Intraspecific Plant Competition Abstract A study was conducted to address the problem of interspecific and intraspecific competition among wheat and mustard plants. It was hypothesized that increasing the plant density‚ and therefore increasing intraspecific competition‚ would negatively impact the plant biomass. It was also hypothesized that interspecific competition would have a stronger negative effect on the plant biomasses

Density-independent factors • an abiotic event that affects all popn’s in the same way‚ regardless of popn density • e.g. fires‚ earthquakes‚ storms‚ temperature extremes… 2. Density-dependent Factors • a biotic interaction that varies in its effect on popn size‚ depending on the density of the popn involved • have greater impact on denser popn’s

traspecific competition in growth of Brassica rapa in low and high-density treatments Rimel‚ Stuart F (thursday 11am) Abstract Intraspecific competition was examined on Brassica rapa‚ a species of fast growing mustard. Intraspecific competition is competition between individuals of same species living in the same population and competing for a limiting resource (Aspbury and Gabor‚ 2007). Brassica rapa was grown in a Laboratory in 10.16 cm pots and grouped in treatments of low density –
