Which of the following is not a way in which biomes can change? which of the following is not a way in which biomes can change? a) volcanic activity b) human activity c) temperature changes d) solar eclipses e) moon rotation

       The right answer to this question is option D. Solar Eclipses.

Explanation:

       Let's check the other options, option A mentions volcanic activity, and this can act directly onto the environment, depending on the damage it does. After that, we have the second option, human activity, this is obvious, human activity can, for sure, change any environment and biome, let's think of cities for example, cities are a change on a biome. The third one, temperature changes, we can talk about global warming, and the causes to oceanic biome. One of the causes are coral bleaching, and this is a big change on the biome. The last one is moon rotation, and this can easily change the movement of the sea because of the gravity.

i think the miocene epoch spans the time from 23 million to 12 million years ago.

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."
