The correct answer is <span>the contribution an individual makes to the gene pool of the next generation relative to the contribution of another individual.

Each individual in a population has an absolute fitness which is a measure of the successfulness of an individual in reproducing and leaving viable offspring. The relative fitness, on the other hand, is the relative fitness of the individual compared with another individual, usually the one with the highest fitness. </span>

Answer:  the contribution an individual makes to the gene pool of the next generation relative to the contribution of another individual.

Explanation:

It is the ability for an organism to reproduce and create viable offspring (offspring live to maturity and which can reproduce themselves). Relative fitness is the survival rate relative to the maximum survival rate with other population.

For example if organism A ends up finding a mate and have babies and organism B does not this means that organism A has more fitness biologically than organism B

What effect might obesity have on blood pressure? Does obesity alone cause a person to be at risk for high blood pressure? What
Ugo [173]

Answer:

obesity increases blood pressure

Explanation:

This is because the high fat percentage in the body has lead to a build up of fat on the inside of arteries and this makes them thinner. the heart has to pump harder to get the blood around the body and through these, now smaller arteries. therefore yes having diabetes does increase blood pressure.

other factors which increase blood pressure are high stress levels, smoking, anxiety.
