The polarity of water enables it to serve as a solvent for polar substances.

A polar substance is a substance that has a positive end and a negative end. Water itself is a polar substance and this polarity enables it to dissolve polar substances.

For instance, HCl dissolves in water because it is polar. The positive end of the dipole in HCl attaches to the negative end of the dipole in water and the negative end of the dipole in HCl attaches to the positive end of the dipole in water.

This dipole - dipole interaction accounts for the dissolution of HCl in water.

Also, ion - dipole interaction accounts for the dissolution of ionic substances such as NaCl in water.

Species selection. Species selection is the process by which intrinsic biological characteristics in organisms change depending on the type of environment they're interacting with. In this case, the subsequent generations of the fly lost the ability to fly because their environment didn't require them to use wings for survival, hence they stopped growing them and subsequently lost the ability to fly.
