Why did artificial selection interest darwin?

Biology
1 answer:
Vedmedyk [2.9K]3 years ago
5 0
<span>To prove his Theory of Evolution. After studying the different species of finches he found the Galapagos Islands, Darwin focused on breeding pigeons by selecting specific traits of different individuals (this is mainly a method through which different kinds of dog breeds came about). On the basis of these studies Darwin concluded that natural selection and artificial selection acted roughly in the same way. Darwin's decision to enforce a certain trait represented, in a sense, the selective pressure which is present in a natural environment (the law of the fittest).<span>

100 POINTS!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST FOR CORRECT ANSWER!!!
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Firstly, when we exercise, or do some activity (in this case football), we use more energy than usual...

The reason some of her body systems work faster than normal, is to keep the body working and in the equilibrium, so that she won’t get tired too fast.

Related to circulation, her blood flow increases, since she needs more oxygen to reach the muscles faster, due to the exercise/activity (Lactic acid builds up, so more oxygen is required.)

Her breathing increases to take in more oxygen(O2), and give out more carbon dioxide(CO2).

Her body respires more(respiration), both aerobically(with oxygen), and anaerobically(without oxygen), lactic acid builds up due to anaerobic respiration.

(Here, energy is released from glucose to generate a substance called lactic acid. ... Therefore anaerobic respiration cannot be used for a prolonged period of time without having damaging effects on a cell.)

When she inhales (Oxygen), it goes to the lungs, to the alveoli ( Alveoli are tiny air sacs in your lungs that take up the oxygen you breathe in and keep your body going)

In the Alveoli, diffusion takes place, this is where oxygen is diffused into the blood, and carbon dioxide is diffused (taken into) into the lungs.

Then we exhale, which gives out the carbon dioxide(CO2), this happens really fast, we also breathe so fast, this process happens within seconds.

Red blood cells contain something called haemoglobin, this combines with oxygen To form oxyhaemoglobin, then when the red blood cell reaches the muscle, it gives the oxygen, converting oxyhaemoglobin back to  haemoglobin.

Heart: pumps blood faster (as I said before), to ensure oxygen gets distributed faster to where it’s needed

Answer:

  • Hands and feet with 5 fingers

  • Hands and feet with 5 fingers and opposable thumbs, for grabbing, holding a grip for a better arboreal lifestyle. Even though in some species such as humans these opposable thumbs in feet don't longer exist.
  • Plantigrade feet, which means that the toes and metatarsals are flat on the ground while walking.
  • Collarbone or clavicle present.
  • Nails instead of claws in the large majority of species.
  • Color vision.
  • Two brain hemispheres well developed, for special traits like social behaviors and better eye-hand coordination among others.
