I'm admittedly not an expert on biology, but I thought I'd try my hand at this! I'd love to geek out about bio and help you out with your worldbuilding - even though I'm not entirely sure I'll be able to give you a clear, easy answer.

Here's what my background is:

    - Honors biology, AP biology, and AP Environmental Science in high school.
    - A biologist for a dad who taught me about nature growing up.
    - A love of nature and prehistoric documentaries.
    - Several college biology classes.

I'm better with ecology/nature than I am with small things like cell biology, but I'm currently finishing up my cell biology course as I write this post! I also have a textbook handy on me, so I should be able to look up more complicated information for things I'm not as certain about.

Way, way back in the 1988 Presidential election, then Vice President George H W Bush had a phrase he liked to use: "A Thousand Points of Light." It refers to the idea that a community is made up of people who contribute in a thousand, different small ways, but with each helping to illuminate their community. It's a phrase I think about a lot when it comes to YWS. Looking forward, the site will continue to change and grow, but it will always remain a community dedicated to promoting creative writing as a favorite pastime.
