Answer:

Although now a days we have evidence that evolution and speciation process can happen in 1 or just a few generations (e.g. clone crayfish or the golden rain tree bug florida and there are many more) usually evolution and speciation process work at a broader scale of time. This is important because communities are evolving together and this creates equilibrium in ecosystems. If evolution happens only in several other may not adapt to these changes.

DNA technologies can be dangerous especially with bacteria  because Gram Negative Bacteria have been found to be fairly capable of inter-species conjugation, this is dangerous because DNA can change bacteria in a way that may be invasive or harmful to other organism.

When pouring food coloring into warm water and cold water, we can see that the
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

true!!

Explanation:

the faster molecules move, the warmer the object is. think of how much energy you feel when you touch hot water and you whip your hand back, thats similar to how the molecules are movin, all that heat is energy built up in them and theyre moving around all crazy haha. Then think of putting ice in the freezer, all the molecules are kinda frozen in place, all squished together, because they dont have enough energy to move around. so, when the hot molecules with all that energy are moving around, the food coloring is able to get all over in the water. Kind of like if youre on a road trip the faster you drive the faster you'll get places. if you drive super slow, then it'll take forever to get there. so true, when food coloring is dropped into faster hotter molecules, it will spread faster. :)

Which of the following is the best modern definition of evolution?
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

c. fittest descent with modification  

Explanation:

Evolution can be defined, in a nutshell, as the process of variation and adaptation of populations over time, and may even cause the emergence of new species from a pre-existing one. In short, evolution is the process that gives rise to a fittest descent with modification. Thus, the great diversity of organisms present on our planet can be explained through this theory.

As we study evolution, we realize that the life forms we know today are not the same as those that lived thousands of years ago. This means that species have an evolutionary history and that many changes happen to them until there are the characteristics we observe today.

Species, therefore, are not fixed, have undergone changes throughout their history on the planet and continue to change. Man, for example, did not appear on earth as we see today, as there were several ancestral species.
