Perhaps you have seen the movie the lion king. two brother lions were at the center of the plot, scar and mufasa. scar was weak,
thin, and rather lanky. mufasa was strong, muscular, and had a very dominant presence. because mufasa had the qualities and traits that would help him survive and reproduce at a higher rate than his brother, biologists would say that he had a higher level of __________.
Biologists would say that he had a higher level of fitness.
Explanation:
The term fitness can be used in biology to designate an organism's ability to survive and reproduce in its environment, passing on its gene to subsequent generations, to its descendants.
Stronger, sturdier lions are more likely to survive and reproduce, so mufasa had the qualities and traits that would help him survive and reproduce at a higher rate than his brother Scar. For this reason, biologists would say that he had a higher level of fitness.
The lateral line system is found in fish and is used to feel a vibration, movement, and pressure in the water. These senses are derived from the epithelial tissue which reacts to the movement near the fish.
