Answer: Creds to guy above, He was correct. Easier copy and paste here.

Yes both are different. In directional selection one of the extreme traits is favored, whereas in disruptive selection both the extreme traits are favored.

Directional: If selection acts to eliminate one extreme form and supports the other extreme then the peak shifts in the direction which is selected by the nature.

Disruptive: If the selection does not favor the mean character value, rather favors both the peripheral character values then this kind of selection is called disruptive selection.

A long time ago, farmers discovered that if they grow the same
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Because they don't have fertilizer.

Explanation:

Well, if this was a long time ago, then farmers did not have fertilizer. So, there are bacteria on the roots of plants that convert nitrogen into a usable form. It's very important for growing, and when farmers harvest the crop, not much of the nitrogen is returned to the land, so it is not as fertile. Fertilizer is largely consisted of nitrogen, so that is why farmers use fertilizers today. But "a long time ago," farmers did not have fertilizer.

Inside our body, millions of nephrons in the kidney filter wastes in 2 steps. Each nephron has a glomerulus and a tubule. Waste filtering undergoes 2 steps:
First, fluid and waste pass through the glomerulus but, proteins, blood cells, and other large molecules are prevented from passing through. Second, the filtered fluid passes through the tubule wherein the filtered wastes are removed; minerals are sent back to the body, and the remaining output becomes urine.
