Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Co-evolution is determined as the symbiotic association of two organisms which can undergo mutual evolution. Some species closely interact with each other as they adapt to the modifications done by evolutionary changes over time due to coevolution. One species that have adapted itself triggers a modification in an intimately interacted species. These changes result in the evolutionary changes in the other species due to natural selection.

Read this quote from Charles Darwin (from Origin of Species). What is he describing?

simultaneously or one after the other, modified and adapted to each other in the
most perfect manner, by the continued preservation of all the individuals which
presented slight deviations of structure mutually favorable to one another."

For example, of the original 62 species of honeycreeper found in Hawaii only 18 remain. Scientists have the technologies that may allow bringing back organisms that have become extinct. This brings up ethical questions about the cost/benefit of resurrecting extinct species and whether it is the right thing to do. Joseph Bennett, a professor of biology at Carleton University in Ontario, wanted to determine the cost of resurrecting and maintaining an extinct species. Since the up-front cost of resurrecting an extinct species is very difficult to determine, the researchers decided instead to look at the cost of reintroducing and protecting a resurrected organism in the wild. To accomplish this, the researchers considered 70 animals from New Zealand and 29 animals from New South Wales that went extinct within the last 1,000 years. From this list, they chose 11 New Zealand species and five NSW species that…arrow_forwardYour friend remarks, "The giraffe stretched its neck while reaching for higher leaves; as a result, its offspring inherited longer necks” Which statement is the best response to correct your friend’s misconception?
