Answer:

Exposure to infection is influenced by climate, hygiene, food preference

Parasitic infections can be spread in a number of ways. For example, protozoa and helminths can be spread through contaminated water, food,waste, soil, and blood. Some can be passed through sexual contact. Some parasites are spread by insects that act as a vector, or carrier, of the disease.

Isreal were clean and hygienic, they isolate and cover their waste, Israel’s laws reflected medical concepts and views on sanitation that were far ahead of their time.

Explanation:

Shortly before the nation of Israel entered the Promised Land some 35 centuries ago, God said that he would protect them against “the terrible diseases” that they had known in Egypt. (Deuteronomy 7:15) One way he did this was by giving them detailed instructions on disease control and hygiene. For example:

The nation’s code of laws required bathing and clothes washing.—Leviticus 15:4-27.

Regarding human waste, God stated: “A private place should be designated for use outside the camp, and there is where you should go. A peg should be part of your equipment. When you squat outside, you should dig a hole with it and then cover your excrement.”—Deuteronomy 23:12, 13.

People who were thought to have a communicable disease were quarantined—kept away from others for a time. Before returning, those who recovered from sickness had to wash their garments and bathe in water if they were to be considered “clean.”—Leviticus 14:8, 9.

Anyone who touched a dead body was quarantined.—Leviticus 5:2, 3; Numbers 19:16.

Israel’s laws reflected medical concepts and views on sanitation that were far ahead of their time.

Ahat [919]

Following general conditions are necessary for natural selection to occur in population:

  • More organisms are born than can survive.
  • Organisms vary in their characteristics, even within a species.
  • Differences in reproduction and survival are due to variation among organisms.

According to Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, organisms that possess heritable traits that enable them to better adapt to their environment compared with other members of their species will be more likely to survive, reproduce, and pass more of their genes on to the next generation.

Galapagos Finches: The Galapagos finches studied by Darwin on his famous voyage are probably the most common example of natural selection.
