Can someone describe natural selection for me?

Biology
1 answer:
MAXImum [283]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

This is a process whereby the better 'fitted' or adapted varieties of species in populations are selected by environmental pressures. This affects the survival and reproduction of the individuals in the plant/ organism populations in such a way that eventually a variety better adapted to the drier climate dominated the population.

Natural selection is a never-ending process in nature since some environmental factor keeps on changing all he time.

Which are the three main types of lipids
maxonik [38]

Answer:

The three main types of lipids are - triglycerides, diglycerides, and steroids.

Explanation:

Lipids are organic compounds that are fatty acids or their derivatives. Lipids are insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents (alcohol, ether). The three common lipids are triglycerides, diglycerides, and steroids.

An ester derived from glycerol and three fatty acids is a triglyceride. These are the main component of body fat in the vertebrates as well as the vegetable fat.

A Glyceride consisting of 2 fatty acid chains bonded to a glycerol molecule covalently through ester linkages is a diglyceride.

Biologically active organic compounds with four rings arranged in a specific molecular configuration are steroids.

3. (b) How does crossing over increase the variation in the gametes (and hence the offspring)?
sasho [114]

Answer:

During crossing over, part of one chromosome is exchanged with another. The result is a hybrid chromosome with a unique pattern of genetic material. Gametes gain the ability to be genetically different from their neighboring gametes after crossing over occurs.
