How does research into natural selection and traits help you understand why some butterflies have coloration that looks like the
QveST [7]

Answer/Explanation:

Natural selection - over time - selects for traits that improve fitness. A butterfly with wing coloration that looks like a hungry owl would certainly be a deterrent to their natural predators, such as smaller birds. This is because the owl is the predator of the smaller birds, and their instinct is to avoid the owl.

If a mutation arose that resulting in coloration that looked like an owl, (or at least slightly menacing) this would be beneficial to the butterfly, as it would be more camouflaged from predators. This means it would be more likely to reach reproductive age and pass the mutation onto its offspring, who would also have a competitive advantage.

Over time, this would lead to a population of butterflies with coloration that looks more and more owl-like .

Please help me , Describe how bonds contain energy and what the energy is used for
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Chemical bonds contain potential energy.

Explanation:

Chemical bonds always contain potential energy. The atoms of the bond want to move to a lower energy to become more stable.. The energy for breaking bonds only comes when stronger bonds are formed.  This energy is used to tear apart the bonds holding the Hydrogen atoms together. The strength of the covalent bonds depend on the overlap between the valence orbitals of the bonded Atom.
