The process whereby organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring. The theory of its action was first fully expounded by Charles Darwin and is now believed to be the main process that brings about evolution.

Answer:

Those who adapt, survive. Those who don't adapt, die off. Offspring with healthy mutations, (evolution), outlive their siblings who slowly die off in ways from the mundane to the horrifying. They have children who then repeat this process. It is a dog-eat-dog world.

What is embedded in the phospholipid bilayer that helps in the movement of larger molecules ?

gladu [14]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf A. \ Channel/Transport \ proteins}}$

Explanation:

The phospholipid bilayer is also known as the cell membrane. It covers cells and regulates the transport of substances. Certain ones can pass and others cannot, depending on certain factors like size and polarity.

Smaller substances tend to diffuse or move across the membrane quite easily. However, larger molecules have a much harder time. Many depend on special proteins embedded in the membrane. These are called transport proteins and they form a channel so large molecules can still move in or out of the cell.

So, salt, water, and fats do not contribute to the movement of larger molecules, but <u>channel or transport proteins do and choice A is correct. </u>

6. Why does meiosis increase genetic variation in the offspring, but mitosis does not? (1 point)

brilliants [131]

Meiosis involves crossing over where chromosomes exchange genetic segments, resulting in different sets of chromosomes. Each time an egg or sperm created, it is different due to this recombination. Mitosis on the other hand is non-sex cells replicating exact copies of themselves which lead to no genetic variation as they aren't involved in producing offspring.
