Answer:

Natural selection leads to adaptation, that is, to a population dominated by organisms that are anatomically, behaviorally, and physiologically well suited to survive and reproduce in a specific environment. ... Species become extinct because they can no longer survive and reproduce in their altered environment.

Answer:Natural selection leads to extinction. Variation of the genome that do not have the information required to survive in an environment are eliminated due to natural selection. The surviving genomes already had the information required to survive or adapt to the environment.

Natural selection does not create information necessary for the adaptation of a population. The information must already exist for adaptation to occur. Natural selection will change the composition of a population by eliminating the poorly adapted.

Examples are the peppered moth of England. There were two varieties the Melanic or dark and the predominate white. When the industrial revolution and burning of coal changed the environment, the Melanic or dark variation was better adapted. The population changed to being predominately melanic. When the pollution caused by the Industrial revolution was brought under control the population reverted back to the predominately white variety. Natural selection only changed the population. Natural selection did not create the adaptation it already existed.

It can be said that metabolism and homeostasis are related. Why can you not achieve homeostasis without metabolism?
Harrizon [31]

The right answer is A.

Metabolic homeostasis is provided by a set of interactions between the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral tissues. The CNS controls the periphery by regulating the fraction of energy that enters the body (caloric intake) and that which emerges from it.

To perform this role, the CNS receives signals from peripheral organs and provides information on peripheral metabolism, as well as the extent of the reserves available to the body.
