Hermit Crab Essay
A niche is a species and their position in their habitat or ecosystem, having a specialized strength that no other species have or does. Why it’s important in biodiversity? Species have different preys and predators because how diverse the energy web is.

This shows commensalism because being on the shell of the hermit crab doesn’t affect the sea anemone but the hermit crabs’ protection increases.

Natural selection in genetic variation would be a species desiring a certain feature for their mate, for example peahens often pick their mate if the peacock has a long and colorful plumage, that trait will become more dominant as they reproduce. Cellular/DNA in genetic variation would be more of a genetic mutation, example, grazing animals that have longer neck can eat the leaves from taller trees while other animals without the mutation, and in a time of food scarcity, the animal with genetic mutation will have the advantage since they can eat more leaves. Genetic variation around Calgary, there are a few wolves since of the bounties in Alberta, $75 to $500 per wolf, with over 1,400 being killed from over the years. People have spotted a coyote being abnormally larger, this animal has both wolves and coyote like features, being known as a “Coywolf”. This is because there are few wolves and they are either mating with coyotes, or without the competition for food, the coyotes are becoming stronger and are
