Between 1990 and 2010, more than 8.6 million acres of forest were destroyed in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Papua New Guinea to build palm oil plantations. These forests are homes to orangutans, elephants, tigers, and other animals. How will this activity affect the forest ecosystem?
-More natural disasters will occur.
-Disease will spread more easily.
-Fewer shelters will be available.
-New predators will move into the area.

What advantages does a pedigree have over a written passage?

Female luna moths (actias luna) attract males by emitting chemical signals that spread through the air. a male hundreds of meters away can detect these molecules and fly toward their source. the sensory organs responsible for this behavior are the comblike antennae visible in the photograph shown here. each filament of an antenna is equipped with thousands of receptor cells that detect the sex attractant. based on what you learned in this chapter, propose a hypothesis to account for the ability of the male moth to detect a specific molecule in the presence of many other molecules in the air. what predictions does your hypothesis make? design an experiment to test one of these predictions.
