Darwin and Wallace both observed greater species richness in the tropics than in Europe, but neither of them had a good explanation for why. One of the best-supported modern-day hypotheses to explain this pattern is that mutation rates are higher in the tropics than in temperate latitudes. Why would higher mutation rates lead to greater species richness

Respuesta :

Answer:

Mutation shows the species energy relationships, tropics are more rich with energy as compared to the temperate europe.

Explanation:

  • The rate of species evolution is defined by the type of environment or the natural surroundings it lives in. Mutations Can affect organisms by making changes in their physical characteristics. Such can impact their DNA code and may even lead to death in many.
  • The richness of species in the tropics is due to the more warmer and humid climates. They are suited to the development and germination of certain bacterias and have certain climatic phenomena.
