<u>Answer</u>: Natural selection.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • The concept of <em>natural selection</em> was given by <em>Charles Darwin.</em>
  • According to this concept, in a given environment the organisms that possess <em>better adaptations</em> have<em> higher chances of survival</em> and, leave behind a <em>greater number of progenies</em>.
  • When malaria outbreak occurs, the allele frequencies change and only the organisms that possess the alleles which help them to <em>survive</em> this outbreak due to resistance against malarial infection will be selected by nature and<em> hence, this is an example of natural selection.</em>

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

radioactivity will not be able to tell the difference between the DNA and proteins

Explanation:

It seems that the experiment will fail to show what Hershey and Chase showed because they modify some of the aspects. These modifications will cause changes to the results, the main one being that radioactivity will not be able to tell the difference between the DNA and proteins. This is because Amino Acids are proteins that also contain nitrogen atoms, thus labeling the nitrogen would include all DNA and proteins. This being the main reason why Hershey and Chase decided to label the DNA instead.

What does the biological species concept use as the primary criterion for determining species boundaries?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

The correct answer is C) gene flow

Explanation:

The biological species concept defines what is a species. It says that a species is a group of individuals in a population that interbreed with each other. So there should be gene flow between the members of the population to come under species.

Appearance does not define that two individual are of same species because even different species can look same for example Western meadowlarks and eastern meadowlarks looks identical to each other but they do not interbreed so there is no gene flow between them so they are not same species.  

Therefore the primary criteria for determining species boundaries is gene flow.
