Explain how a change in environment may result in selection becoming directional rather than stabilising

bulgar [2K]2 years ago

Under artificial selection.

Natural selection is always stabilising. When there is great selective pressure, it could look as if it is directional, but actually, the environment has changed so much that the entire ecological system is unstable, and evolution compensates and stabilises it. There’s no direction to this compensation, but more like throwing things at the wall and see what sticks.

Only in artificial selection is there a direction.

The farm uses a variety of pesticides on its corn crop. What is a likely result of this?
Studentka2010 [4]
The answer would be B I believe. I think it is B because the bees will take pollen from the corn crop and spread it to other plants and crops. The pesticides might poison the wildlife since there are chemicals that the crops have that the other plants do not. It also just seems like the most logical answer out of the 4.

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

<em>It would cause a decrease in the carrying capacity of the owl population.</em>

Explanation:

The relationship between a predator and prey is unique. Both the population of a predator and prey gets affected if changes in one of them occur.

If mice migrated from the ecosystem, this will mean that there will b little food available for the owls on that ecosystem. As a result, they will compete for food. Some of them would get killed due to lack of food. Others will migrate to places where they can find food. Hence, the carrying capacity of the owl population would decrease.
