the image here is a spiny stickleback, with the three spines highlighted with black arrows. The spines are a rigid projection of

the external scales. The three-spine stickleback is found in freshwater lakes, but it is rarely found in oceans. Large oceans have spineless sticklebacks that lack these projections. Which component of natural selection is likely driving the change in phenotype distribution of these two sticklebacks in different environments?

The component of natural selection which is most likely driving the change in phenotype distribution is, that the presence of spines on stickleback caused increased food acquisition and survival in ocean areas.

<h3>What do you mean by Natural selection?</h3>

Natural selection may be defined as a process through which populations of living organisms adapt and change. It involves the favorable variations to carry forward.

Stickleback play a major role in the diet of fish. This structure of fish allows them to feed on small crustaceans and insects.

Therefore, it is well described above.

"In proteins, structural segments called ____ provide flexibility that allow parts of the protein to bend, fold, or move."
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The correct answer is "random coils".

Explanation:

Random coil is a type of polypeptide secondary structure comprised of conformation that do not follow an established conformation but rather are oriented randomly. These random coils conformations provides flexibility to proteins, since the lack of a particular structure (such as alpha helices or beta sheets), allows the protein to bend, fold or move.

1. When a sugary gummy bear is placed in water, there are more dissolved solutes _______________ (inside/outside) the gummy bear
madreJ [45]

Answer:

When a sugary gummy bear is placed in water, there are more dissolved solutes inside the gummy bear.

Explanation:

The sugary gummy bear has more solutes as compared to the water in which it is being soaked. When a sugary gummy bear is placed in water, water enters the gummy bear through osmosis as water tends to move to the place where there are more solutes. The sugar gummy bear has more solutes. So, the gummy bear  expands and increases in size due to the entrance of water into it.
