Individuals don't evolve. Natural Selection produces evolutionary change over entire populations over lifespans.

Answer:

This statement is true

Explanation:

Ability of an individual to survive and reproduce in its environment; increased by adaptations. Natural selection acts on individuals but evolution occurs in populations. Natural selection acts on phenotypes, but evolution changes allele frequencies. Natural selection can only act on traits that have a genetic basis.

Evolution is the gradual genetic change of living organisms over time due to ecological pressures they experience. Individuals in an interbreeding population share in a common gene pool. ... (2) in small populations, gene frequencies can be changed via random sampling -- this is known as genetic drift

The sole of a gecko's foot is covered with millions and millions of small, dry "hairs" that make direct contact with surfaces, a

Answer: Van der Waals forces

Explanation:

Van der Waals forces are weak intermolecular forces that depend on the distance between two particles. They are caused by correlations in the change in polarization between two nearby particles. To put it in other words, when a particle changes its polarization (becomes more positive on one end and more negative on the other), so does the adjacent particle, and the next one, and so on. This causes these particles to stick together weakly.

The tiny "hairs" increase the surface area of the gecko's feet in contact with the wall, which makes the bond stronger and allows it to support all of its weight.

Because experiments have shown that geckos stick well to both hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces, we can assume there aren't any hydrogen bonds present.

Ionic bonds can't be present either because geckos wouldn't stick to electrically neutral surfaces, as these bonds require charged molecules.

Certain varieties of chrysanthemums contain 18, 36, 54, 72, and 90 chromosomes; all are multiples of a basic set of nine chromos
AlekseyPX

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

aneuploids

allopolyploids

amphipolyploids

autopolyploids

Answer:

Autopolyploids

Explanation:

Autopolyploid refers to the ploidy condition in organisms in which the ploidy level of organism increases that is multiple set of a single chromosome is formed in tissues.

The autopolyploids condition is observed more frequently in the plants than the animals when the tissue cells divide.  In the given question, the chromosome number increases or double that is from 18 to 36 to 54, 72 and 90. This shows that the ploidy level is increasing.

Thus, Autopolyploids is correct.
