Answer:
An organism is able to produce sweat so that it cools off which helps it to cool down when exposed to high temperatures.
It's vessels are able to vasodilate and vasoconstrict to regulate temperature.
An organism stores fat as an insulator.
Eye pupils dilate and constrict to control the amount of light entering the eye.
If an organism touches a hot surface, nerve impulses are sent to the body to move and not get injured.
In a nutshell: an organism maintain a constant internal environment with homeostasis. And is able to respond to changes in the atmosphere by electrical impulses (nervous system) or the endocrine system by the release of chemicals (called hormones)

Answer:
Which type of selection tends to increase genetic variation? A. Disruptive selection B. Directional selection C. Stabilizing selection
The Answer is option A (Disruptive selection)
Explanation:
Selection can either shift the mean value of a trait, reduce the trait's variation, or increase its variation.
Genetic variation which allows natural selection to increase or decrease frequency of alleles already in the population is a source of phenotypic variation as it refers to differences in all the hereditary information of members of the same species.
Disruptive Selection is important in maintaining variation and initiating speciation as it Increases Variation by favoring alleles corresponding to more extreme phenotypes. But for it to occur, the mean phenotype has to experience the lowest fitness. Disruptive selection affects the frequency distributions of alleles and genotypes within a population.
Disruptive selection is based on the variance of a trait in a population as it increases genetic variance by equalizing the frequencies of existing alleles at polymorphic loci (a genetic loci with two or more alleles). Disruptive selection maintains and may even increase variation in natural populations by favoring extreme phenotypes, individuals with extreme values for a trait have greater reproductive success than individuals with intermediate values.
