Take two healthy potted plants. Keep them in a dark room for 2-3 days. Now place each plant in a separate glass. Get a cup containing potassium hydroxide by the side of the plants (the potassium hydroxide is used to absorb carbon dioxide). COver both plants with separate jars. Seal the jars so that the set-up-is-air-tight. Keep the plants in sunlight for two hours. Gently pluck a leaf from each plant. remove the chlorophyll from the leaves by boiling them in alcohol. Wash the leaves with water and then pour iodine solution over them.

We can conclude that the photosynthesis cannot be carried out without carbon dioxide. the leaf from the plant (which was the jar containing potassium hydroxide, which absorbed the carbon dioxide) turns blue black on iodine solution showing that starch is presented in this lead.

so this shows that carbon dioxide is necessary for the processs of photosynthesis to take place

Natural Selection: Mastery Test
Finger [1]

Answer:

Genetic diversity in a small population, with a high level of genetic drift and with very little migration will decrease because existing alleles will be lost and few new alleles will be introduced over time (option A).

Explanation:

Evolution - linked to the natural selection and perpetuation of a species - depends, in large part, on three fundamental factors to make it happen:

  • Mutations .
  • Genetic drifts.
  • Migrations.

In small and isolated populations, very little genetic variation, high levels of genetic drift and very few mutations can be observed, which could lead to some alleles being lost and the species may become extinct.

Genetic drift (GD) is an important factor in terms of natural selection, as it is the result of allelic variations that occur from one generation to another. In large populations, GD is low, given the cross between different individuals is greater. A characteristic of GD in small populations is that their levels are very high, and this leads to the eventual loss of alleles.

In this small population, without the possibility of migration -few new alelles will be introduced- genetic variation will decrease, due the genetic flow is low, reducing reproductive fitness and weakening the population's resistance to environmental changes, which could result in the long-term extinction of the species.

✯Hello✯

↪  Its HETEROTROPHIC

↪  This is because it cannot create its own food

↪  Most plants can create their own food through photosynthesis

↪  Therefore it BEST describes a fungi :)
