An average number of eggs a bird lays is based on natural selection. If a bird lays too many eggs, there a high chance that she

will not be able to provide enough food for all of the offspring, so they could starve to death. If she lays too few eggs, there is a great chance a predator will eat all of the eggs. What type of natural selection is this illustrating? A. Stabilizing B. Disruptive Directional

The correct answer is stabilizing selection.

Stabilizing selection is a kind of natural selection in which the mean of the population steadies on a specific non-extreme trait value. This is considered to be the most general process of action for natural selection as the majority of the traits do not seem to vary radically with time.

Stabilizing selection is the reverse of disruptive selection. In spite of preferring individuals with extreme phenotypes, it favors the transitional variants. Stabilizing selection seems to eradicate the more extreme phenotypes, resulting in the reproductive success of the average or norm phenotypes.

This signifies that the most general phenotype in the population is chosen and continues to govern in the coming generations. As the majority of the traits vary slightly with time, stabilizing selection is considered to be the most usual kind of selection in the majority of the populations.

Inject DNA or RNA into the nucleus of a cell to reproduce.
kaheart [24]
The answer is A, Viruses

Viruses cannot reproduce on their own , so they have to inject their DNA or RNA into the nucleuus of a cell. By doing this, the virus will take over that cells and within times, that cells will pop up and producing more viruses.

This reproduced virus will repeat the same process until our immune systems stop them

Ludmilka [50]

In order to improve fat digestion, large fat globules must first be dispersed into smaller droplets in a process called <u>emulsification.</u>

<h3 /><h3>What is emulsification in the digestive system?</h3>

Fat emulsification is the process of increasing the surface area of fats in the small intestine by grouping them into small clusters. Large lipid globules are split up into a number of smaller lipid globules. In the chyme, these tiny globules are widely dispersed rather than aggregating into larger groups. Hydrophobic compounds include lipids. Bile salts, are present in bile and have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic sides.

Due to the fact that lipases can only effectively act on lipids when they are broken down into small aggregates, emulsification is crucial for the digestion of lipids. The lipids are converted into fatty acids and glycerides by lipases.

Aleksandr [31]

A conversational plan with two habitat preserves, measuring a total of 20 square kilometers combined will preserve more species because this cause segregation of species based on their adaptability towards a safer and secure environment. For example if a lion and deer try to live in the same conservation area, then it’s obvious that the life of deer is always at risk. But in cases of segregated preserved areas both herbivorous and carnivorous animals can live separately. Also if there is special inclination of one species towards other then also these two species can live separately.  

Segregation also enhances the diversity in the sense that it could lead to a new ecosystem with a new ecological balance within it. Conservation biologists focus on these areas as they claim that  where the greatest number of unique species can be found and protected with in the large number of reserve areas with the least amount of effort
