There are many traits for which it seems natural selection should favor an increase every generation, such as survival from birt

h to reproduction. In most cases, when we look for such increases in natural populations we do not see the predicted change. Make a list of all the reasons we might not see a response to directional selection on such a trait. Include reasons suggested by the material in this chapter, as well as any other reasons you can think of.

Answer:

Natural selection has been studied since Charles Darwing first started his research.

Explanation:

<em>Basically natural selection changes the frequency of traits. Left themselves in large , freely interbreeding populations, the frequency of traits will remain the same from generation to generation. The traits are often heritable, in living organisms, many characteristics are inherited, or passed from parent to offspring. </em>

<em>The reasons why we mightt not see a response to directional selection on such a trait are:</em>

  1. <em>More offspring are produced than can survive.</em>
  2. <em> Organisms are capable of producing  more offspring than their environments can support.  </em>
  3. <em>Offspring vary in their heritable  traits. </em>

Question 1 of 10
Sati [7]

Answer: Option A) Parathyroid glands

Explanation:

The Parathyroid gland located in the neck region helps in the secretion of an hormone called Parathormone.

This hormone helps to raise the levels of calcium ions in the body, by preventing the loss of calcium ions through urine, and also preventing excess deposit of calcium ions in the bone, thus regulating bone density.

True or false. Is sympatric speciation, a physical barrier arises and separates two populations l, ending flow between them
timofeeve [1]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

The above statement is <u>False </u>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Speciation is an evolutionary process in which new species arise. There are three types of speciation, namely; sympatric, parapatric and allopatric speciation.
  • <em><u>Sympatric speciation is a pattern in which speciation occurs in the absence of a physical barrier to gene flow; ex. polyploidy arising in flowers.</u></em>
  • In an Allopatric speciation on the other hand, a physical barrier arises and separates two populations, ending gene flow between them and allowing reproductive isolating mechanisms to evolve so that later if the two groups come back into contact they will no longer be able to reproduce together, therefore making them different species.
