the grain size (sand‚ silt and clay). There are two main types of bottoms‚ hard and soft. Natural Habitats of Birds Different species of birds suit different types of natural habitat. Although there is much overlap in the resources that different habitats provide (e.g. insect food)‚ some habitats are rich in certain resources. For example‚ heathlands are often rich in plant species belonging to the family Proteaceae‚ which tend to have bird-pollinated flowers that are rich in nectar. Heathlands are therefore

It functions independently. However‚ multicellular (many celled) organisms have various levels of organization within them. Individual cells may perform specific functions and also work together for the good of the entire organism. The cells become dependent on one another. Multicellular organisms

A Sea Otters fur is very helpful to them because it insulates them very well but their paws don’t have as much fur so they keep their paws up in the air when they are out of the water or when they are floating. This species Sea Otters are one of the most interesting and cutest sea mammals.This paper will explain the diet of the sea otter‚ the sea otter predators‚sea otter’s coat. First of all this paragraph will explain the predators of the sea otter. The sea otter’s

Roach 1 Did Neanderthals belong to the same species as modern day humans or were they just another failed species of hominid? There are many missing links when trying to discover the differences between Neanderthals and modern humans. Neanderthals were the first Europeans who occupied the continent from 300‚000 to 400‚000 years ago (Williams 2010). They were naturally able to adapt to the cold climate considering they survived the last ice age. They were able to function by using stone tools

We‚ however‚ do not naturally produce our own source of materials and energy from within us. Our species need an external source which is our environment. Throughout history‚ the human race learned to use a large quantity of the things that exist on this planet for the sake of survival. One of the most common examples are the animals. Aside from the

Iteroparous species reproduce multiple times during their life span while their semelparous counterparts have only one reproductive episode. Throughout its evolution‚ each species has adapted a method of reproduction that is the most beneficial to its linage’s survival. A new reproductive pattern might be introduced if there is any change in a species’ environment that requires modification to take place. If adult mortality among individuals of a species is low‚ that species will most likely

Suddenly‚ however‚ they are struggling to survive‚ largely because of things people are doing to the planet’s oceans and beaches. However‚ what does this mean for the human species? It is possible that a world in which sea turtles cannot survive will soon become a world in which humans struggle to survive. If‚ however‚ we learn from our mistakes and begin changing our behavior‚ there is still time to save sea turtles from

classification system is considered inadequate today as a means of accurately representing the degree of relationship between two organisms. Up until recently‚ Neanderthals were classified as Homo sapiens neandertalensis. They are now classified as their own species‚ Homo neandertalensis. Earlier‚ giant pandas were also classified with raccoons! Instead of classifying organisms into prokaryote or eukaryote‚ it sorts them into three categories by splitting the prokaryotes into two kingdoms similar to the six-kingdom
