Answer:
There is an increase in demand for higher quality and quantity of food and other products.
Explanation:
There is an increase in demand for higher quality and quantity of food and other products. So, there is a huge requirement for technological innovation. Investment is needed in research and development to develop crops that are pesticide-free, resistant to disease, and able to face various weather conditions. Vertical farming and carbon-capture technology can be used to meet growing world food demands.
Answer: C. is less likely to be eaten by a predator.
Explanation:
The adult seven-spotted cockroach is the prey of various other insects including beetles so mimicking the pattern of a beetle would send a message that it is a beetle and because the chemical irritant that the beetle has makes it get avoided by others, the cockroach gets avoided by other insects too who don't want to be sprayed.
Of course this does not always work but it works for the most part and ensures the cockroach's survival.
Variations can be genetic or environmental, the traits are passed from one generation to other generation of snail is from from both parents to offspring and through the environment.
The correct answer is C.
Explanation:
Genetic variation in an organism is passed to the offspring by its parents.
environmental variation is the the result of different environment with which individual adapt.
Natural selection is a process in which a suitable trait which is well adapted to the environment is passed on tho future generations.
Genetic variation is the change in DNA or gene of the individual trait. The tree snails having different pattern in their shells is due to the habitat they are living in.
The snails which have well adapted to the environment are able to reproduce and pass on the traits to their progeny. The variation is due to the traits passed from parents through the environment also.
