Tortoises with long necks were found to be abundant in regions that had vegetation on a higher level. A few years later, drought

hit the region and the vegetation dried up. Over time, grasses were observed in the region. Shortly thereafter, an increase in short-necked tortoises was observed in the region. What does this change in the species of tortoises suggest?

I believe this is survival of the fittest. so because of the drought there was no more food supply for the long necked tortoises thus causing them to die off and not be able to reproduce and pass of their gene for long neck. where as for the short neck tortoises there was enough food for them to survive and thus being able to reproduce and pass on their gene for short necks.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]
If you want to get some energy out of an ATP molecule, all you have to do is break off one of those phosphate groups. ... The ATP hydrolysis looks more like the breaking down of polysaccharides into glucose than the catabolism of glucose itself, and this is at the core of the difference between the two molecules

hoa [83]

Answer:

tumor suppressor gene

Explanation:

A tumor suppressor gene is capable of modulating cellular processes during cell division and/or replication, thereby avoiding uncontrolled cell proliferation and tumor development. For example, the p53 gene is a tumor suppressor gene that encodes a protein (p53) which is well known to regulate critical cellular processes such as, for example, cell cycle arrest and programmed cell death (apoptosis). Moreover, breast cancer genes BRCA1 and BRCA2 are tumor suppressor genes that regulate the repair of damaged DNA through the Homologous recombination (HR) pathway. In consequence, mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes can increase the risk of developing breast cancer.
