Which of these naturalists synthesized a concept of natural selection independently of darwin?
mariarad [96]
The answer is Alfred Wallace. 
Darwin began formulating his theory of natural selection in the late 1830s but he went on working silently on it for twenty years. He wanted to amass a wealth of evidence before publicly presenting his idea. During those years he corresponded briefly with Wallace (right), who was exploring the wildlife of South America and Asia. Wallace supplied Darwin's help publishing his own ideas on evolution. He sent Darwin his theory in 1858, which, to Darwin's shock, nearly replicated Darwin's own.

What's the quickest way for an ant to go from the ground to the tree trunk?
seropon [69]

The quickest way for an ant to go from the ground to the tree trunk is by walking straight towards the tree and climbing the tree trunk. Ant will walk straight if it is guided by the pheromone trail left behind by the other ants.

The ant first decides to explore the area for food and threats before taking a decision to walk away from its current location, i.e, the ground. The ant then starts to climb the bark of the tree to reach a higher ground. It does so by leaving a pheromone trail behind. This pheromone trail helps in guiding the other ants towards a possible food source.

alexira [117]
<span>Reptiles and birds excrete waste as an insoluble white solid that is called uric acid. This means that these wastes are made of very little amount of water. This helps them to maintain internal homeostasis in hot climates since the presence of water allows them to cool easily.</span>
