166.<\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0The advantage of diversification of structure in the inhabitants of the same region is, in fact, the same as that of the physiological division of labour in the organs of the same individual body\u2014a subject so well elucidated by Milne Edwards. No physiologist doubts that a stomach by being adapted to digest vegetable matter alone, or flesh alone, draws most nutriment from these substances. So in the general economy of any land, the more widely and perfectly the animals and plants are diversified for different habits of life, so will a greater number of individuals be capable of there supporting themselves. A set of animals, with their organisation but little diversified, could hardly compete with a set more perfectly diversified in structure. It may be doubted, for instance, whether the Australian marsupials, which are divided into groups differing but little from each other, and feebly representing, as Mr. Waterhouse and others have remarked, our carnivorous, ruminant, and rodent mammals, could successfully compete with these well-developed orders. In the Australian mammals, we see the process of diversification in an early and incomplete stage of development.<\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n La ventaja de la diversidad de estructura en los habitantes de una misma regi\u00f3n es, en el fondo, la misma que la de la divisi\u00f3n fisiol\u00f3gica del trabajo en los \u00f3rganos de un mismo individuo, asunto tan bien dilucidado por Milne Edwards. Ning\u00fan fisi\u00f3logo duda de que un est\u00f3mago adaptado a digerir s\u00f3lo materias vegetales, o s\u00f3lo carne, saca m\u00e1s alimento de estas substancias. De igual modo, en la econom\u00eda general de un pa\u00eds, cuanto m\u00e1s extensa y perfectamente diversificados para diferentes costumbres est\u00e9n los animales y plantas, tanto mayor ser\u00e1 el n\u00famero de individuos que puedan mantenerse. Un conjunto de animales cuyos organismos sean poco diferentes apenas podr\u00eda competir con otro de organismos m\u00e1s diversificados. Puede dudarse, por ejemplo, si los marsupiales australianos, que est\u00e1n divididos en grupos que difieren muy poco entre s\u00ed y que, como Mr. Waterhouse y otros autores han hecho observar, representan d\u00e9bilmente a nuestros carn\u00edvoros, rumiantes y roedores, podr\u00edan competir con buen \u00e9xito con estos \u00f3rdenes bien desarrollados. En los mam\u00edferos australianos vemos el proceso de diversificaci\u00f3n en un estado de desarrollo primitivo e incompleto.<\/em><\/p>\n \n Lectura aconsejada:<\/p>\n A m\u00e1s diversidad, m\u00e1s aprovechamiento de recursos, sigue manteniendo el autor.
