The species selector may be sorted by which criteria? What is an endemic species and why can such a species be vulnerable to extinction? Name at least two groups of organisms that do not fit the biological-species concept and describe why. W...
Tropical mountains are global biodiversity hotspots, owing to a combination of high local species richness and turnover in species composition. Typically, the highest local richness and turnover levels are implicitly assumed to converge in the same mountain regions, resulting in extraordinary species ric...
Define the term "endemic species" and use it in a sentence to demonstrate how it applies to biology. Explain the meaning of the term "survival of the fittest". What is the concept of homology? How is it present in organisms development? What is the biological definition of species, ...
