Answer:
sexual selection
natural selection
Explanation:
Natural selection is an evolutionary mechanism (changes the allele frequency) by favouring traits that are advantageous among others because they increase the survival and reproduction. In the example above, mosquitofish that live in the predator-rich ponds devoloped a trait that help them survive (swimming in short, fast bursts). This adaptation to environment is favourable by natural selection.
Sexual selection refers to the female mosquitofish and the fact that they choose their males (with better reproductive success).
Answer:
<h2>letter A</h2>
Explanation:Whittaker placed bacteria in their own kingdom, Monera, because of fundamental organizational differences between prokaryotic bacterial cells, which lack membrane-enclosed nuclei and organelles , and the eukaryotic cells of other organisms that possess internal membranes. Plantae, Fungi, and Animalia consist of complex, multicellular eukaryotic organisms that differ from each other in details of cell structure and in how they secure and process energy. Protista is a collection of single-celled eukaryotic organisms and simple multicellular forms, some animal-like, some plantlike.
<h2>letter b</h2>
Molecular evidence, particularly from ribosomal ribonucleic acid (RNA), suggests that the five-kingdom scheme is also too simple. Some biologists believe that Protista should be partitioned into three or more kingdoms. Similarly, kingdom Monera contains two very biochemically distinct groups of prokaryotes: archaebacteria, and eubacteria. A proposed system acknowledges this ancient evolutionary split by creating a higher level of classification, domain, above kingdom. This system distinguishes three domains: Archaea, Eubacteria, and Eukarya (containing protists, plants, fungi, and animals).

See explanation
Explanation:
Darwin proposed his theory of evolution on the premise of natural selection. According to him, organisms which possess favourable characteristics which enable them to survive in their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing on these favourable characteristics to their offsprings.
According to Mendel, the unit of inheritance passed on from parents to offspring are genes. Hence Darwin's factors are Mendel's genes.
If Darwin knew of Mendel's work. It might have influenced his presentation of the idea of passing on favourable characteristics from parents to offspring in the light of genetics.
This would have made Darwin's work to have more empirical backing hence making it more widely accepted.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
it would be d as when organisms or plants die they would decay and the energy and nutrients and carbon would then be broken down and absorbed by the soil
Woah what is going on in these comments uhhhhhh
