Answer: Natural selection can be defined as the differential survival and reproduction of members of the population of a species that have suitable traits to survive in a population of species.
Explanation:
The punctuated changes in the population of species have been found inordinately faster in the geological time scale, but changes per-generation have been relatively slow. Also, the rate of evolution in such a population is also slow. The punctuated changes in the population are because of evolution but the per-generation changes are the outcomes of the natural selection, in which only the beneficial traits are passed from one generation to another.
The answer is invasive species.
Invasive species are species that are not native to specific ecosystem,
but they have a capability to spread widely through the ecosystem, This way
they can threaten native species of the ecosystem or cause
environmental harm.
<span>After being introduced into the Black Sea, they greatly affect local
ecosystem. In the new area, they have no natural predators and are able to
spread. If they spread beyond the area they are introduced, they
become invasive species which can overgrow native biotopes and are
a great threat to the local biodiversity. This could lead to the extinction
of some native species.</span>
Answer:
D. A periodic warming of sea surface temperatur
e.
Explanation:
Loggerhead turtles and Humboldt squids normally lives in the south coast of Mexican. These animals are sensitive to temperature. Due to warming waters during El Niño events, these animals migrated toward the North (coast of California).
PS: In the tropical eastern Pacific, if the sea temperatures rise 0.5 °C above the long-term average, the condition is declared as El Niño.
In plants, the chloroplast is necessary to photosynthesis, and mitochondria contain enzymes responsible for producing energy
