Selective permanently, is the reason why the cell membrane only let's certain things pass through. small noon polar molecules (oxygen & carbon dioxide) pass through by simply diffusing. But other molecules use other types of passive transport or active transport.

Non-random mating is assortative mating. It is a pattern and form of sexual selection in which individuals with similar phenotypes mate with one another more frequently than would be expected under a random mating pattern. non-random mating can act as an ancillary process for natural selection to cause evolution to occur. It’s also bad for evolution because any departure from random mating upsets the equilibrium distribution of genotypes in a population. Recombination is a process by which pieces of DNA are broken and recombined to produce new combinations of alleles. recombination is important to somatic cells in eukaryotes because it can be used to help repair broken DNA. recombination by itself does not cause evolution to occur. Rather, it is a contributing mechanism that works with natural selection by creating combinations of genes that nature selects for or against. Non-random mating affects the evolution more than recombination

T/F – Interphase is part of mitosis.
Maksim231197 [3]

False. Interphase is not technically a part of mitosis.

During interphase, the cell is performing its normal functions and preparing for mitosis.
