- What was the ancient view of the world and animals? Give an example using Aristotle’s interpretation.arrow_forwardWhich is an example of evolution? In Florida, the brown tree lizard has taken the trees from the green tree lizard. The feet of green tree lizards have become less sticky in recent years, making it harder for the green lizards to climb higher in the trees to escape the brown tree lizards. Mice have become more sensitive to poison, which has resulted in them dying quicker when they eat the poison in mouse traps. Bed bugs have developed thinner exterior shells and more sensitive nerve cells that are less resistant to the chemicals that are used to kill them. Due to global warming, the winters in Finland have been milder, resulting in less snow. The brown tawny owls in Finland are showing higher survival rates than the pale grey owls because they can blend into the trees to hide from predators.arrow_forwardWhen did animals first appear in thetree of life?arrow_forward
