Answer:

Natural selection disrupts the genetic equilibrium by favoring the genes for the traits that impart survival advantage to individuals.

Explanation:

Natural selection refers to the unequal survival rate of individuals of a population due to the presence of some beneficial adaptive genetic trait. These individuals are able to survive more and leave more progeny. Over generations, the population has increased number of these individuals leading to evolution of a population with different allele frequencies.  

For example, the frequency of gene for antibiotic resistance in the bacterial population was increased once humans started using antibiotics to control the bacterial population. This led to the evolution of the bacterial population with antibiotic resistance.

Is Natural selection a universal process?
bezimeni [28]
The probability of life evolving into a complex form is one of the factors in the Drake equation. Drake himself estimated that probability as 1.0, for what that's worth.

<span>He had that confidence precisely because descent-with-variation seems pretty certain to be a universe process because it's so straightforward. If you have something that reproduces imperfectly, eventually more complex versions will be the result. Even the "natural selection" part is optional if you were just imagining searching through the vast space of genetic possibilities, but finite resources make selection inevitable.</span>

El guepardo puede alcanzar velocidades hasta de 110 km/h, para obtener esta información la biología se apoyó en la…
brilliants [131]

Answer:

la tecnología del Sistema de Posicionamiento Global (GPS)

Explanation:

Los guepardos son animales capaces de acelerar rápidamente, llegando a alcanzar una velocidad de 29 metros por segundo (aproximadamente 110 km/h). Los biólogos de vida silvestre determinaron la velocidad de los guepardos mediante la utilización de collares con GPS. Para la colocación de estos collares, los guepardos tuvieron que ser parcialmente sedados mediante la utilización de dardos tranquilizantes. La tecnología del GPS permitió la localización y de este modo la determinación de la extraordinaria aceleración que alcanzan los guepardos; sin embargo, esto es sólo un aspecto de su estrategia para cazar, ya que a partir de esta tecnología fue también observado que estos animales son capaces de girar y detenerse repentinamente al atrapar una presa.
