Explain how natural selection might be a mechanism of evolution

Biology
1 answer:
7nadin3 [17]4 years ago
5 0
Natural selection is a process in which the best adapted individual survives. In Darwin's studies on the Galapagos islands, he found 4 different bird species on 4 different islands. The islands were not that far from each other but it still took a while to get from one to the other. He discovered that the species were different because of their environment. Therefore, each specie was adapted to its environment. On the other hand, evolution is a long term process that adapts an individual to it's habitat. Therefore, by eliminating all individuals who are not able to survive, we are left with the ones who were able to live and reproduce and have children who will have changed a bit and will continue changing until the specie is completly adapted. That is the link between natural selection and evolution.

Visible light is seen as white light, however, when it passes through a prism, we see multiple colors, why does this happen?
Mariana [72]
Visible light, also known as white light, consists of a collection of component colors. These colors are often observed as light passes through a triangular prism. Upon passage through the prism, the white light is separated into its component colors - red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. The separation of visible light into its different colors is known as dispersion.

il63 [147K]

Most of the hurricanes that affect the east coast of the United States originally form over the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean in Summer. There hurricanes usually move towards the west northwest after being formed in the tropical and subtropical latitudes. In the Atlantic, this motion most likely than not brings the hurricane into the vicinity of the U.S. East Coast.
