How is artificial; selection dependent on variation in nature?

3 0

Artificial selection is the breeding of the best species by humans. For example, the fastest horse or something like that. This means breeding with species with the traits that produce offspring with the desired traits. To do this variation is needed. Not all species are going to have the desired traits but not all are going to have the undesired traits. However, if there is no variation, all animals of the same species are either going to have the unwanted traits or the desired traits. Now, if they all have the traits that us, humans, don't want, then such a concept and process like artificial selection would not exist.

Hopefully this is helpful to you in some way.

How and where is nectar unloaded by foragers upon their return to the hive?

Allushta [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a. "by trophallaxis with receiver bee".

Explanation:

Bees collect nectar from flowering plants, and when nectar foragers return to their colonies, they unload the nectar by trophallaxis with receiver bee. Trophallaxis is defined as the interchange of regurgitated liquids between insects, this is the process that occurs between the foragers and the receiver bees once they give the collected nectar to the hive.
