Both mitochondria and ribosome are so tiny structure, it can not be seen under light microscope. It needs more magnification to study the detail structure, hence electron microscope is best to use.

<h3>What is ribosome ?</h3>

Ribosomes are small membrane less organelles and are the sites of protein synthesis.

It is present in are found in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.

Ribosomes can either be present alone or in groups in cytoplasm while some ribosomes are attached to the endoplasmic reticulum  called as rough endoplasmic reticulum.

These are composed of ribosomal protein and RNA, have two subunit larger and smaller subunit.

In which of the following situations is evolution by natural selection most likely to occur?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

b.

Explanation:

Natural Selection refers to the survivability of organisms based on different traits or genes that they have which then get passed on to their offspring. Based on this information we can say that a population of mountain gorillas in which individuals with genes for long hair survive the cold better is the situation in which natural selection is most likely to occur. This is because longer hair in this scenario is a gene that drastically affects the chance of survival for the gorillas and will most likely be passed on to their offspring.
