The historical basis for the introduction of a new organism

The historical basis for the introduction of a new organism is the analysis of literary sources written by reputable scholars. The main features of a new organism include the ones typical of crocodiles, threespine sticklebacks, snakes, cavefish, and wolves. In this respect, it is necessary to discuss the features that will be combined in a single organism. The first feature to be discussed includes the ability of crocodilians to shunt the blood flow right-to-left to facilitate the digestion of the food hence making crocodilians one of the most powerful and dangerous predators and excluding all potential competitors that may occur in the natural environment. As reported by Farmer et al., “The mechanism remains to be demonstrated, but the shunt probably serves to carry CO2 to the gastrointestinal tract, where it is then used in the formation of gastric acid” (133).
