Good afternoon, Kathan899. The ideas of Darwin were influenced by a few people such as Jean Baptise Lamark, Charles Lyell, Thomas Malthus, and Alfred Russel Wallace. Lamark believed that traits from an organism could not be generational (passed down by generations). Charles Lyell believed that the Earth was older than anyone thought. Malthus believed that with more people in the world than resources, there would be famine and disease. Have you ever heard of A.R. (Alfred Russel) Wallace? No because Darwin did not share his credit for it. A.R. Wallace sent his paper to Darwin and they both got credit for it, for a while. After that, Darwin published the book on his own, which is why he got credit for it and left Wallace's name out of it. These scientists influenced Darwin's on Evolution and Natural Selection because he said that organisms had evolved physically and behaviorally. He said that organisms adapt to their surroundings. Whatever your belief is on these ideas, all of these scientists influenced Darwin to his opinions. I hope I helped!! Have a great day.

Explain the process of cross-pollination.
Anna007 [38]

Cross pollination is the transfer of pollen of different species to stigma of different species of plants.

Cross pollination results in healthy, viable and diverse plants.

Mendel observed that traits could either be dominant or recessive.

Blended traits or incomplete dominance is the condition in which dominant allele could not produce its trait alone instead blending with recessive allele takes place giving new phenotype to progeny.

Explanation:

In cross pollination pollen transfer takes place from anthers to stigma. In Mendelian genetics the anthers of the plant was removed because it has both male and female parts on same plant so that self pollination does not take place.

The importance of cross pollination is that it creates diversity in the plant species since the traits having different alleles are combined to form the progeny plant. The offspring are healthier and high quality seeds are found.

Mendel observed that traits are either dominant or recessive in general.  It was observed that when homozygous parents were crossed, the progeny in F1 generation always had dominant trait. The recessive trait only appeared when F1 generation offspring were self pollinate.

Blended traits or incomplete dominance appear when alleles get blended and exhibit the traits in phenotype. The phenotype appeared will not be matching with either parents.

The example is a white coloured flower is crossed with red colour flower the resultant colour of the flower is pink. It shows that dominant allele red is not completely dominant and gets blended with white colour.

Mariulka [41]

Answer: Lek Polygyny

Explanation:

Polygyny is a mating system inwhich one male is associated with multiple females. This mating system is found in a few birds and insects, but is most common in mammals. Polygyny is a strategy used by males to increase their reproductive fitness.

Lek polygyny is a system where male aggregate at a location and try to attract females for mating and the females leave after mating. It is believed that males attract more mate in this way than in isolation.

I guess this one is right, to be sure ask from someone else 2

Explanation:

One of the most significant differences between the nervous system and endocrine system is that the nervous system uses electrical impulses to send messages through neurons while endocrine glands use hormones to send messages to the target cells through the bloodstream.
