- ☐ 17. (07.08 MC) The prairie chicken was once widely seen in many areas across the Great Plains. Due to the conversion of prairie land into farmland, one species of the prairie chicken became extinct. The only species of prairie chicken left are endangered mainly because of habitat loss. They require tall grass prairies as their habitat. Which of the following is the best explanation for their endangered state? (4 points) The prairie chickens lack genetic diversity and resilience to changes in environment, resulting decline of the population. Environmental perturbations increased the rate of adaptive alleles. The prairie chickens have adapted to many new environments. The prairie chickens are genetically diverse and resilient to environmental perturbations.arrow_forwardPlease show work on paper and draw the graph on paper pleasearrow_forwardhuman 0.98 0.79 0.79 0.79 0.79 0.79 0.99 chimp whale dolphin hippo camel Drawing Molecular Trees chimp whale dolphin hippo camel alpaca 0.79 0.79 100 --- --- I 95 0.79 0.79 0.79 0.97 0.95 0.95 0.97 0.95 0.95 0.95 0.95 0.99 --- --- 90 --- 85 80 Percentage DNA similarity 75arrow_forward
- Imagine that you are trying to assess the relative influence of a host of enviormental factors on the growth (body mass) of a certain fish species. Your observation will be made in several streams. The focus is on identifying what factors are important in explaining weight gain. Please tell me: a) How would you design the experiment to identify which enviormental factors are most important? b) How would you test your hypotheses? (what statistical analysis would you do?) Can you show me what the equation might look like?arrow_forward(A) A sample of limpo grass had a fresh weight of weighed 300 grams.
