extinct. Habitat destruction and animal hunting are the factors that cause the animal extinction. Recently‚ animal extinction occurs due to the habitat destruction. First‚ as the country develops rapidly nowadays‚ more trees had to be cut down illegally because of high demand of timber product from many countries. According to Illegal logging (n.d)‚ High demand of wood product from many countries causes the profitable illegal logging. Second‚ agriculture causes most of the habitats changed and

ability of bronze frog Rana temporalis tadpoles (pure or mixed parental lines) to assess the profitability of food habitats and distribute themselves accordingly was tested experimentally using a rectangular choice tank with a non-continuous input design. Food (boiled spinach) was placed at two opposite ends of the choice tank in a desired ratio (1 : 1‚ 1 : 2 or 1 : 4) to create habitat A and B. The tadpoles in Gosner stage 28–33‚ pre-starved for 24 h‚ were introduced in an open ended mesh cylinder

Strengthening Self-Control A large body of research has been developed in recent years to explain many facets of willpower. Most of the researchers exploring self-control do so with an obvious goal in mind: How can willpower be strengthened? If willpower is truly a limited resource‚ as the research suggests‚ what can be done to conserve it? Avoiding temptation is one effective tactic for maintaining self-control. In Walter Mischel’s marshmallow study‚ the children who stared directly at the

extinction as a result of human action: Habitat Destruction – Animal Habitats are often destroyed in construction of homes‚ roads etc. Tree’s (deforestation)‚ ponds and other types of habitats are removed in order to make room for this type of construction. Pollution – Pollution and climate change have seen a lot of animals become endangered. Acid rain has caused many marine animals to become extinct due to the change in pH of their habitat.

are humans accelerating species extinction? The main causes of extinction due to humans are HIPPCO: Habitat destruction‚ degradation‚ and fragmentation; Invasive species; Population growth and increasing use of resources; Pollution; Climate change; and Overexploitation. The biggest threat to wild species is habitat loss‚ degradation‚ and fragmentation. A perfect example of this is the loss of habitat for the polar bears. Because of global warming‚ there have been less floating ice sheets in the arctic
