In natural selection, there are three main things you need to know. There must be a variance in the genepool of course, or else to selection or evolution will take place. There also must be a selective force and time. Now, lets say that there is a population of many colored moths. But lets say that the brown colored moth blends in with the environment. This means that predators (selective force in this case) will have a much harder time finding these brown moths instead of easily finding some of the other colored moths (variation). This means that the brown moths will survive at a much higher rate because the are harder to find, and over time, the gene pool will narrow down to just brown moths because the rest of the moths die out due to predators and competition. This also means that this moth species has evolved over time to just become the brown colored moths only. Hope you can understand this but feel free to ask for clarification.

Why do you think<br> organisms in the<br> same kingdom are<br> not all identical?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Evolution, mutation, and adaptation

Explanation:

Since different organisms adapt to different environments and receive different mutations, they adapt differently and slowly change. That is why there are different species of birds, just look at the galapagos islands, there are thousands of species of finches that changed to survive on each island. The same could be said for every organism since the early organisms that we evolved from were widespread, some evolved differently than others, leading to different fish, different lizards, different early mammals, and so on. That is why humans look different than dogs or cats, we evolved best to our environment so we could survive.

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

causing degradation of transcription factors and changing which genes are expressed

Explanation:

Ubiquitination  (addition of ubiquitin to a protein) is the first step in protein degradation process, and it directs  protein to the proteasome for degradation. This process involves three steps with specific groups of enzymes to perform them, which are activation with ubiquitin-activating enzymes, conjugation with ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes and ligation with ubiquitin ligases. These enzymes would be most likely to regulate gene expression by causing degradation of transcription factors and changing which genes are expressed.
