<span>Neutral mutations are neither harmful nor beneficial.
Therefore, they are invisible to natural selection. (Since they neither improve nor worsen one individual's chances of survival and reproduction over another.)
However neutral mutations can still spread into the population by just random replications and matings. This is called genetic drift.
In other words, they are 'silent'. They are mutations that exist and propagate in populations, but seem to have no effect at all.
The reason they can become important to evolution is that a day can come when they *do* have an effect. In other words, even though an individual mutation may have no immediate effect on survival or reproduction, a *combination* of neutral mutations may provide some new benefit or harm ... at which point natural selection *will* act on that combination.

Answer: B and D
Explanation: We can break down why the correct answers are choices B and D by understanding why A and C are incorrect.
Option A states that active transport utilizes channel proteins, and facilitated diffusion utilizes carrier proteins. This is incorrect. Active transport involves carrier proteins, and facilitated diffusion involves channel proteins. Carrier proteins are different from channel proteins in that, while channel proteins can only facilitate the passive diffusion of ions into or out of the cell along their concentration gradient, carrier proteins can also use ATP to move ions in or out of the cell against their concentration gradient.
This brings us to why option C is also incorrect. Option C states that both processes require the input of energy in the form of ATP. While active transport requires the use of ATP to transport ions with or against their concentration gradient, facilitated diffusion does not. This is easily remembered when we consider that active transport is called *active* transport because the cell is *actively* using energy to transport ions.
Hope this helped.
Answer: D. 100%
Explanation:
One parent is with is a true breeding blue flowering plants this means the two alleles of the genotype are homozygous dominant alleles (BB).
The other parent is a true breeding with flowering plant, this means the two alleles of the genotype are homozygous recessive alleles (BB).
When both parents are crossed, the possible genotype outcome is
B B * b b
Bb Bb Bb Bb
Therefore since the blue flowering plant allele (B) is dominant to the white flowering plant allele (b) the probability of an offspring outcome to be a blue flowering plant is 4/4 which is 100%.44
Answer is 100%
Answer:
Decrease in available living space
Explanation:
If there is no living space left there will be a decrease in the amount of organisms that can live there
Answer:
b

cuz that is what they normally eat so sorry if it's wrong
