The answers are A, B, & C. Steroid hormones have a
longer half-life than peptide hormones because steroid hormones ride on carrier
proteins in the blood. In other words, they
are bound to protein carriers that transport molecules across the membrane. They can also be stored temporarily in the adipose
tissue. And also, steroid hormones are sent to the nucleus where it regulates transcription
while peptides don’t require this process. This is the reason why the effects of
steroid hormones are exerted more slowly than peptides.

Answer: B. Poorly adapted individuals never produce offspring
Explanation:
Natural selection is a theory that states organisms adapts to its environment due to differences in their phenotypes. So, <u>individuals with favorable traits are more likely to survive and reproduce</u>. It is a key mechanism of evolution, which is the change in traits of a population over generations.
<u>Populations respond to natural selection if they contain heritable variation </u>among them, wich means that individuals differ in the traits they transmit to their offspring.
Because of the environmental selection pressures, individuals produce more offspring than their environment can support. <u>The pressure determines which individuals will survive and reproduce</u>, while others will die because of predation or diseases. So, natural selection is based on the observations of adapted individuals.
