In a certain population of wolves, a mutation takes place and several wolves
Valentin [98]

Answer:

According to the theory of evolution by natural selection wolves with mutations will outgrow the wolves without mutation.

Explanation:

Nature always poses challenges to the living organisms in various forms like climate change, food scarcity, natural disasters, etc. If an organism has a characteristic to survive better than the other, then they will be selected by the nature. We can also use the term fitness for this. Darwin also referred about this as reproductive fitness which means only those organisms which are fit in their environment produce more progeny and increase in number. s we can see that the introduction of mutation has added the advantage of being faster and stronger, so when it comes to competition for food the wolves with mutation can easily catch the predator than wolves without mutation. Since mutation has resulted in better adaptation to their environment they will outgrow in number.

Is decay of dead plant material a biotic factor or an abiotic factor?
Juliette [100K]
Technically you are able to argue both ends. Biotic factors are living things while abiotic factors are no living things. since the plant was once living, you can argue that it is a biotic factor, however, I would say the dead plant decay would be abiotic because it is not living anymore. I hope that helped!

Answer:

Natural selection.

Explanation:

Natural selection is when organisms who are most adapted to their environment survive and pass on their genes while those with "unfit" genes die and don't get the chance to reproduce! This slowly creates a population that is most well suited to their habitat. Hope this helps again LOL! :)
