Bark Beetle is the common name for more than 600 species of beetles whom burro into the trunks of trees and lays their eggs. Once the eggs hatch the larva will feed on the living tissues inside of the tree and then eventually lay their eggs and begin the cycle over.

article was that although the Artodus, which are the North American short-faced bears, and Arctotherium, which are the South American short-faced bears have the same survival traits they evolved autonomously of each other. This means that the two species have deviated from each other, but still evolve the same traits to sustain themselves or fill their vocation, which is called convergent evolution. Ancient mitochondrial DNA was used to trace the lineages from the fossilized bones and the DNA…

They then create a manmade structure for at least two animals to live in. They will breed the animals causing numbers of the species to rise. Although, there may be overpopulation and manmade structures, should stay in zoos because, they’re given a safe place to live, putting smiles of people's faces, and breeding extinct animals. When a…

The sustainability of our planet highly relies on the range and dispersion of an organism. An organism's range is the area where the species lives during its life. There are many different organisms with many different ranges -- some are very limited because an organism has special, specific needs, and some can be very large because an organism has the ability to survive in many places or migrates during certain times of the year. The pattern of an organism's spacing in an area is called…

There are too many species in the world to even try to count, and overtime all of them have had to adapt and evolve to survive in their habitats. Some species have changed in color over time to be able to blend better with their environment for survival. While other species have grown fins, some have grown legs, some have even changed to be both water and land, and others wings. One of the many animals that has evolved and grown wings is the bat, although bat wings are different because they…
