Cross-cultural studies are important in studying behavioral biology because:

Indicate whether the following statements about the biases in the fossil record are true or false. a) inland species are more likely to be preserved than marine species b) organisms with hard body parts are more likely to be preserved than are those composed soft tissues. c) species that existed over a larger area are more likely to be preserved than species existing over a smaller area. d) organisms that lived very long ago are more likely to be found as fossils than organisms that lived relatively recently e) the fossils of larger organisms are more likely to be found than the fossils of smaller organisms

This is a typical grassland food web. it is also a small picture of an important cycle on earth: the carbon cycle. describe how the carbon gets into this food web. a) bacteria and fungi, the decomposers, recycle carbon from dead organisms. b) carbon is found in the grass and is passed from one level to the next in this food web. eliminate c) all living things give off carbon dioxide as a by-product of respiration and it is released into the atmosphere. d) plants use carbon dioxide as a reactant in photosynthesis, to make usable chemical energy in the form of a sugar.
