What Is The Life Cycle And Ecological Niche Occupied By The Matapalo Tree?


Matapalo > Ficus altissima
Life cycle:
Germinates as epiphyte from seed dispersed by birds and monkeys.
Seedling sends roots from high in the trees to the ground.
Plant starts to grow very quickly, surrounding and often suffocating host tree.
When host dies, Matopalo survives as an enormous upright pipe, which is able to live for hundreds of years.
Niche:
Matapalos ( strangler figs ) are tall canopy trees ( up to 148 feet in height.) of tropical rain forrest, bearing lots of sweet fruits and are in this way producers of food for lots of birds and animals ( in some forests up to 70% of its animal’s diets depend on figs, ), and these fruit eaters ( herbivores ) are important knots in the food web of Matopalos niche, f.e. in Peruvian jungle.
and the number of fruit-eaters determines the number of predators of fruit-eaters.

Can You Speak English?/ What Is This Thing Trying To Say?


what is this answer trying to say? YES or NO??
I’m not an undergrad or a graduate of any sort… is there nothing you can do to help me?
We focus on the FIG Seed niche as it is a demographic we understand (something we would always suggest you did when starting a business). We’d recommend speaking to Make Your Mark, The Prince’s Trust, The British Library or Business Link. Who knows… in the future we may well open our doors to anyone, but right now we need to walk before we run.

Could Evolution Have A Plan For Humans- If So, What?


Our brains are wired to be curious, ingenuitive, and much more. I have a theory that humans are “designed” by evolution to be the “transporters” of life (much like how seeds evolve to spread) – to spread the seed of life into space in case of some catastrophic event beyond the Earth’s power to avoid. At the same time I believe we have been distracted by toilsome endeavorers (the stuff our economies are made of) I know this might sound nutty to some but Carl Sagan had similar thoughts. I know evolution doesn’t think, but look at a sprout, see how it follows the sun? Well, now just imagine that if the entire organism that is Earth (the thing that gave birth to all life on it) has similar tendencies as a single plant or animal, a “force” guiding it towards survival. Sure we may be screwing up, but there’s no guarantee a species will fill its niche (purpose). I brought this up to a Christian friend and he told me that if he’s wrong about the existence of his God that maybe that’s why we long for places like Heaven, and why we feel we’re “stewards”. Your thoughts?
