How does human evolution or natural selection relate to susceptibility of disease

1 answer:

4 0

Susceptibility to disease means that a person is likely to fall ill, if they are in contact with germs.

Many diseases kill people, so those that are more susceptible to diseases are more likely to die before their reproductive age. Some diseases make people infertile; so in short - susceptibility to disease means that people are less likely to reproduce and spread their genes, so the entire population will be less susceptible to these diseases in the future - and this process is called natural selection!

Answer:

Answer:

They have genetic material.

Explanation:

All three domains and viruses have genetic material. They have to, otherwise they couldn't reproduce, whether sexual or asexual. In viruses, it can be RNA or DNA; obviously in eukarya it tends to be DNA, remembering that humans are eukaryotes; and in the other two domains a similar pattern is followed.

Why not the other options?

They are composed of cells

Viruses technically don't have "cells," and even to say cells plural can be a misnomer for some of the more simple forms of life that are unicellular.

They are living things.

All three domains are alive (bacteria, archaea, eukarya) but viruses are technically not considered to be alive.

They have organelles.

Eukarya and prokarya technically both have organelles (think of prokaryotic ribosomes), but not all groups that you mentioned have organelles. Remember that organelles ("little organs") are specific groups of cells performing a function, and they usually have names.
