Answer:

As organisms adapt to changing conditions, they evolve in a way to fit their surrounding environment. According to Darwin's <em>survival of the fittest</em> concept, organisms that can adapt to fluctuating conditions are more fitter and hence selected by nature.

Here fitter means reproductive superiority.

OLga [1]

Answer:

Furosemide e.g. Lasix

Explanation:

Furosemide is a diuretic/water pill that is used to treat fluid retention in the body. Diuretics increase the removal of salts from the blood, they also cause more water to be drawn out of the blood and into the urine.

It works by causing the kidneys to increase the amount of salts such as potassium and sodium that are filtered out of the blood by the kidneys and into the urine, when the salt is filtered out, the excess water is drawn with it.
