Generally speaking, there are 2 major forces that cause genetic divergence in the majority of populations and systems. 

And those are; 

Natural Selection
and
Mutation 

Natural selection causes a divergence due to the fact that organisms with " "better", more advantageous traits dependent on their environment, survive and reproduce, while the others have the lesser chance. (This causes traits in the population to change over time.)


Mutilation/Mutations, on the other hand, is a change in the genetic material of an organism-specifically when DNA is copied incorrectly.

This changes a portion of the genetic makeup of an organism, therefore changing the organism, and changing its future generations of offspring (when made...etc)


Hope this helped, let me know if you'd like more information!

Explain why the cell membrane in animal cells is thicker than in plant cells.
Valentin [98]

Viruses are not living things. Viruses are complicated assemblies of molecules, including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates, but on their own they can do nothing until they enter a living cell. Without cells, viruses would not be able to multiply. Therefore, viruses are not living things

The __________ abuts the lumen of the alimentary canal and consists of epithelium
Misha Larkins [42]

Question is incomplete. Complete question is as follows:

The ____ abuts the lumen of the alimentary canal and consists of epithelium, lamina propria, and muscularis mucosae.

Answer:

Mucosa

Explanation:

Mucosa or mucosal membrane forms the lining of many cavities in the body like the alimentary canal and also covers many internal organs. It lines reproductive, digestive and respiratory system. In the gastrointestinal tract the mucosa is made of three layers: epithelium, lamina propria and muscularis mucosae.

The epithelium of mucosa is made of simple columnar epithelium cells. It consists of many types of cells like parietal cells (secrete HCL) and foveolar cells (secrete mucus). Lamina propria is a loose connective tissue present beneath the epithelium. It provides nutrition and support to epithelium. Muscularis mucosae has smooth muscle fibers which helps the glands on the surface to secrete their contents and also increase the contact between contents of lumen and epithelium.
