is important for what it teaches directly ( like in experiments, direct knowledge). But also, there is a stimulation of more studies ( to ask and answer more questions).

Proportions of isotopes vary across the environments and this is reflected in the body tissue of organisms. *Recent advantages in ecology take advantage of this variation, by examining…
