Answer:

ATP(Adenosine Triphosphate)

Explanation:

ATP is a highly necessary molecule for the cell life cycle, its main function is to <u>store energy</u> for vital cell processes.

Its structure is composed of three phosphate groups (PO₄₃₋) and one adenosine (composed by sugar ribose and adenine).

ATP is capable of releasing large amounts of energy when it breaks down through water (hydrolysis), after this process, the ATP molecule "loses" its terminal phosphate, changing into ADP (adenosine diphosphate).

At the end of the reaction, the chemical energy is released.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

C. Disruptive Selection

Explanation:

Disruptive selection occurs when two extremes of continuous variation are favored more than intermediate traits.  

The extremes of continuous variation exhibited in this species of snail is the color of their shell which allows them to blend with the background of their habitat.  

The shady forest of the habitat makes the dark-shelled individuals to be better hidden from bird predators, while the light-shelled individuals are better hidden in well-lit brushy edge areas. This disruptive coloration exhibited by both individuals makes both individuals of this species of snail less vulnerable to predation.  

Both individuals of this species both extremities would naturally survive in this habitat as snails with intermediate extremities would be highly preyed on since there is no area of intermediate brightness in the habitat to make them invisible to predators
