Hapliod - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

how many species live in planet Earth? - ANSWER-unknown-roughly 3 to 5 million why is life so incredibly diverse, yet so strangely similar? - ANSWER-organisms can contain similar features. planes have wings, birds have wings-this feature is useful for different things (different for penguins, pelicans, bats, eagles) true or false: biodiversity on earth will likely decrease in the near future? - ANSWER- true or false: scientists believe in evolution even though they currently lack eviden...
