- Insects are the largest group of animals on Earth. Insect diversity is greatest in the tropics, where habitat destruction and species extinction are occurring at an alarming rate. What biological, economic, and ethical arguments can you advance to persuade people and governments to preserve this biological diversity? Instructions:There are three chief ideas of the handicap principle: 1) Animals communicate with éach other throughn sigi must be honest, and 3) honest signals are expensive. Stotting behavior (up and down jumps gazelles exhibit when they spot a predator before the gazelle runs away) often results in the predator leaving before it attacks, presumably because the predator knows it won't easily catch that gazelle. This clearly is an example of the handicap principle based on the three ideas. True FalsePrairie dogs are small mammals that live in large colonies in burrows in the ground. Prairie dogs that are near their own relatives when a predator approaches are much more likely to issue a warning bark than those that are near unrelated prairie dogs. The prairie dogs that heara warning bark are more likely to hide in their burrows than to remain above ground. However, the prairie dog that gives the warning bark is putting itself at increased risk of being identified and killed by the predator.Which of the following presents the most likely evolutionary explanation for the behaviors described? * d 2 thool The barking prairie dog is alerting unrelated prairie dogs to the predator, so it is not giving any advantage to its own relatives. The failure of the individual to bark when surrounded by unrelated prairie dogs ensures survival of the individual. The warning bark changes the behavior of the related prairie dogs nearby, allowing the prairie dog's t have increased survival and…
- Prairie dogs are small mammals that live in large colonies in burrows in the ground. Prairie dogs that are near their own relatives when a predator approaches are much more likely to issue a warning bark than those that are near unrelated prairie dogs. The prairie dogs that hear a warning bark are more likely to hide in their burrows than to remain above ground. However, the prairie dog that gives the warning bark is putting itself at increased risk of being identified and killed by the predator. Which of the following presents the most likely evolutionary explanation for the behaviors described? a) The barking prairie dog chooses to warn other prairie dogs, leading to more prairie dogs living above ground. b) The failure of the individual to bark when surrounded by unrelated prairie dogs ensures survival of the individual. c) The barking prairie dog is alerting unrelated prairie dogs to the predator, so it is not giving any advantage to its own relatives.…Muro-ami is a fishing method where the fishes are driven out of a coral reef by pounding the corals with a heavy weight, or simply by breaking the corals.

In the Convention of Biological Diversity (CBD), the precautionary principle read “when there is a threat of significant reduction or loss of biological diversity, lack of full scientific uncertainty should not be used as a reason for postponing measure to minimize or avoid threat”.

Then answer the items. 1% 26% Over 30% of the world's frogs and toads have an official 29% status of “threatened" or “near threatened." Much of this is 6% due to capturing frogs and toads for the pet trade, as well as systematic deforestation of their habitats. The oophaga lehmanni, also known as the Lehmann's poison frog or red-banded poison frog, is critically endangered, for example. Its distribution, throughout areas in its native Columbia, is 39% Frogs Extinct 1% Near-threatened 29% scattered and continues to decline. Least Concern 39% Data deficient 28% 1.
