Endangered Plants Innovations

An species may be a sort of organism that's threatened by extinction. Species become endangered for 2 main reasons: loss of habitat and loss of genetic variation. An species may be a sort of organism that's threatened by extinction. A loss of habitat can happen naturally. Dinosaurs, as an example , lost their habitat about 65 million years ago. The hot, dry climate of the Cretaceous changed very quickly, presumably due to an asteroid striking the world . The impact of the asteroid forced debris into the atmosphere, reducing the amount of heat and light that reached Earth’s surface. The dinosaurs were unable to adapt to the present new, cooler habitat. Dinosaurs became endangered, then extinct. Human activity also can contribute to a loss of habitat. Development can eliminate habitat and native species directly. In the Amazon rain forest of South America, developers have cleared many thousands of acres. To “clear” a piece of land is to remove all trees and vegetation from it. The Amazon rain forest is cleared for cattle ranches, logging, and concrete use.Endangered species, any species that's in danger of extinction due to a sudden rapid decrease in its population or a loss of its critical habitat.
