kotykmax [81]

Answer:

No, se debe a la capacidad de evolucion genetica que tengan los seres vivos frente a los cambios amientales.

Explanation:

Algunos animales frente a cambios ambientales buscan desarrollar mutaciones geneticas que le confieran una cualidad fenotipica que los beneficie en ese medio, es decir como por ejemplo: picos mas largos, plumajes de diferentes cualidades, patas o dedos mas cortos, etc.

Si esta modificacion genetica es capaz de transmitirse a travez de los progenitores de la especie entonces se puede deducir que la especie evoluciono, por ende tiene una adaptacion exitosa y no depende de sus celulas sino del codigo genetico que estas contengan y si son capaces de transmitir dichos genes para poder asi heredar otras generaciones las cualidades fenotipicas ideales.
