Answer:

Option D,whether the mutation makes some wolves more fit for their environment than other wolves

Explanation:

Mutation creating a new fur color in the wolf population will continue to persists in the ecosystem only when it makes the wolf population more fit to survive in the prevailing environmental conditions.

For instance , if the new fur color makes wolf appear as a violent species to its predators then as per the theory of natural selection more and more wolf will interbreed with colorful fur wolf species to produce offspring that are able to cope up with the environment and emerge as the fittest of all.

Hence, option D is correct

D. is correct.  If the mutation makes the wolves more fit for their environment, they will thrive and the presence of that trait will go up.

What are the effects that enzymes can have on substrates
Burka [1]
In chemical reactions involving enzymes, the substrate proteins are huge molecules that will only react with each other if they're aligned just the right way. If they are permitted to interact with the enzymes present, the won't collide and react often enough for the reaction to do any good.The enzymes align the molecules, basically acting like "molecule shepherds," showing them the way they need to react.This speeds up the reaction greatly, making things like digestion possible.

Question 8 How would you describe the effect of different magnitudes of the same factor on the number
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Let's start off with an example. Imagine a population of organisms—let's say, deer—with access to a fixed, constant amount of food. When the population is small, the limited amount of food will be plenty for everyone. But, when the population gets large enough, the limited amount of food may no longer be sufficient, leading to competition among the deer. Because of the competition, some deer may die of starvation or fail to have offspring, decreasing the per capita—per individual—growth rate and causing population size to plateau or shrink.
