Following general conditions are necessary for natural selection to occur in population:

  • More organisms are born than can survive.
  • Organisms vary in their characteristics, even within a species.
  • Differences in reproduction and survival are due to variation among organisms.

According to Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, organisms that possess heritable traits that enable them to better adapt to their environment compared with other members of their species will be more likely to survive, reproduce, and pass more of their genes on to the next generation.

Galapagos Finches: The Galapagos finches studied by Darwin on his famous voyage are probably the most common example of natural selection.

sergejj [24]

The concentration of heavy deposits known as the placer deposits are produced by the gravitational action, generally found in streams. The minerals that take place as placer deposits comprise copper, gold, magnetite, cassiterite, and copper.  

The formation of placer deposits takes place when the metal-bearing rock on land is weathered and the generated debris is washed down to the sea by the rivers. Further by the action of waves, currents, and rides the particles of heavy metal gets amassed to produce mineral sand deposits. These generally occur as beach deposits.

Answer:

cell membrane

The cell membrane in the diagram consists of lipids, bilayers, and proteins. The lipids, located within the cell membrane, are known as hydrophobic, meaning they are afraid of water. In other words, the lipids keep out the water. Whereas the bilayer, otherwise known as the phospholipid bilayer, is attracted to water. While the proteins simply enable molecules and other microscopic parts travel within and out the cell membrane, through the protein.
