Choose the correct answers from the alternatives given.
Most of biological diversity has probably arisen by:

  1. anagenesis

  2. cladogenesis

  3. sympatric speciation

  4. phyletic evolution

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Anagenesis and cladogenesis are the two main ways speciation occurs. One involved the slow transition of one species to another. Cladogenesis involved the separation of a species into two or more groups, with each group then becoming its own separate species.

Phyletic gradualism is a model of evolution which theorizes that most speciation is slow, uniform and gradual. When evolution occurs in this mode, it is usually by the steady transformation of a whole species into a new one.
Sympatric speciation is a geographic mode of speciation due to geographical isolation new species is form.
So correct answer is B, cladogenesis.

Human intervention in natural community interactions usually makes the community more stable 

biology human influences on the environment human intervention in ecosystems humans in the environment involvement of humans in the conservation of environment

  1. True

  2. False

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Humans cause a lot of destruction to the natural world, through deforestation, starting forest fires, farming, and building things. So, when we destroy the environment making it unstable, we allow a new environment where secondary succession begins to take place. It is still slow, and habitats take hundreds of years to rebuild, and often are nothing like the habitat before it.

So, the given option is 'False'.

  1. Oceans expand as they get warmer

  2. Glaciers and ice-sheets melt

  3. Both of the above

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Melting of mass ice, glaciers around the world have caused increase in the sea level. The global warming is the main reason for the melting of ice, which are also a big reservoir of fresh water.
