Because natural selection is caused so that an organism can adapt and better survive their environment. They are involved in the formation of fossils because organisms that die are buried in sediment and become fossils.
By keeping your skin hydrated, you can help keep the elastin that your skin needs to keep from scarring. Using topical creams such as coconut oil will keep your skin moisturized and make stretch marks less likely. Even without treatment, almost all stretch marks will fade over time.
According to Mendel’s laws of dominance, when a plant with dominant trait is crossed with plant with recessive trait, it results into dominant phenotype in F1 offspring. In the given question, a plant with pointed leaves (P) are dominant and plant with round leaves (p) is recessive. On crossing a pointed leaves (PP) with a plant with round leaves (pp) a heterozygous (Pp) pant with pointed leaves will be produced.
Small, but normal variations in genes may produce proteins that work differently from those of other individuals ( friends or relatives). This may affect how we respond to different medicines. The extent to which these proteins functions varies from one individual to another. Example; certain painkillers only work when body proteins convert them from an inactive form to an active one. If these proteins work too fast, the drug will be eliminated from the body before it has time to work. To do their job the pain killers need to bind and modulate a target body protein, the receptor, such that if the target body protein is altered the pain killer might not be able to bind.
