Summary Introduction

To determine: The ways in which the white rhinos can be used to increase the reproduction of Javan and Sumatran rhinos.

Introduction: Rhinoceros is an endangered species and belongs to the family Rhinocerotidae. They are native to Africa and Southern Asia. They are the largest herbivores present on the Earth. There are known predators for rhinos and they are either killed by humans for their horns. Javan rhinoceros is the world’s largest endangered mammals in the world.

Invasive species have no predators or parasites in their new ecosystem d.  All introduced species are invasive. e.  In sexual reproduction, the offspring have the same combinations of genes as their parents. f.

Is the following case study an r-strategist or a K-strategist? American toads practice explosive reproduction. During the first warm days in spring, both males and females migrate from forests and converge on ponds. Reproduction is quick, taking only a few days. Females lay hundreds of eggs in jelly-filled sacks along the sides of the pond or stream. As soon as the eggs are laid, males and females abruptly leave the pond. Offspring are left to develop, hatch, and grow on their own, maturing in about three months.
The pesticide DDT was widely used in the 1940s as a method of insect control. In the late 1950s the first DDT-resistant mosquitoes were discovered, and eventually DDT-resistant mosquitoes were found globally. When DDT is used now, the development of DDT resistance in mosquito populations occurs in months rather than years.Which of the following best explains the observations concerning DDT resistance in mosquitoes? * nd 2 school The proportion of DDT-resistant mosquitoes in a population remains constant due to the metabolic costs of DDT utilization DDT is a chemical signal that delays normal reproductive cycles in many mosquito populations. Natural selection favors DDT-resistant mosquitoes that are already present in a population when DDT exposure occurs. Competition for limited resources causes mosquitoes to migrate to geographical areas that have richer supplies of DDT. A population of 1.492 finches is introduced to a rainforest. Over the next year, the finches showa death rate of…
