The decreased oxygen levels in the water will affect the respiration of the fishes. In order to cope up with the change, the fishes may migrate to a better place with higher levels of dissolved oxygen. This however does not relate to the process of natural selection as the fishes are still the same, genetically and phenotypically. Natural selection acts on those fishes that are able to survive the decreased oxygen levels. These fishes will breed and increase their numbers. The new generation of fishes will be tolerant to the lower oxygen levels. This new phenotype indicates a change in the genetic composition of the fishes.

There are three ways that heat can move from one place to another. Use examples pertaining to how heat is transferred from the s
jenyasd209 [6]
The three ways that heat is transferred are as follows:
Conduction, convection, and radiation.
Radiation is when heat is transferred in waves. It is the only type of transfer that can occur in a vacuum, so that is how heat reaches earth from the sun.
Conduction is when heat is transferred between solid objects. That is how heat is transferred between objects on the earths surface.
Convetsion is when heat is transferred through a liquid. This is how the ocean heats all the way through, rather than just the surface.
