Two opposite forces operate in the growth and development of every population. One of them is related to the ability to reproduce at a given rate. The force opposite to it is called
fecundity
environmental resistances
biotic control
mortality.
What is a keystone species
A species which makes up only a small proportion of the total biomass of a community, yet has a huge impact on the community's organization and survival.
A common species that has plenty of biomass, yet has a fairly low impact on the community's organization.
A rare species that has minimal impact on the biomass and on other species in the community.
A dominant a large proportion of the biomass and which affects many other species.
Assertion : Bursa fabricii lies on the ventral side of the cloaca in birds.

Nicotiana sylvestris flowers only during long days and N.tabacum flowers only during short days. If raised in the laboratory under different photoperiods, they can be induced to flower at the same time and can be cross-fertilized to produce self-fertile offspring. What is the best reason for considering N.sylvestris and N.tabacum to be separate species
They cannot interbreed in nature.
They are reproductively distinct.
They are physiologically distinct.
They are morphologically distinct.
Wings of pigeon, mosquito and bat show
divergent evolution
atavism
convergent evolution
all of these

The evolution of Horses include- small, terriero sized Hydracotherium eohippus to the large modern horse, Equus eohippus, found in Eocene period.
Eohippus was the earliest known horse. It is also known as Hyracotherium. It was only 2 feet long and 8 to 9 inches high at the shoulder. It had 4 hoofed toes on front feet and 3 hoofed ant on each hind foot. It had long skull with 44 long crowned teeth.
This horse was a herbivore that mainly ate soft leaves and plant shoots. It lived early during Eocene Epoch ie, 50 million years ago.
Assertion: The earliest organisms that appeared on the Earth were non-green and presumably anaerobes.
Reason: The first autotrophic organisms were the chemoautotrophs that never released oxygen.
