Evolutionary Theory of Aging describes t<span>he view that natural selection has not eliminated many harmful conditions and nonadaptive characteristics in older adults. N</span>atural selection is linked to reproductive fitness, which is present only in the earlier part of adulthood. According to evolutionary theory, possibly if some disease occurred earlier in development, it might have been eliminated many centuries ago.
Answer:
Dominant allele does not completely conceal recessive allele.
Snapdragon with genotype Rr (R being red and r being white), would have a phenotype of pink flowers.
Explanation:
Incomplete dominance is where a dominant allele is not able to completely conceal a recessive allele, usually leading to a phenotype which appears to be a combination of the two.
For example, in snapdragons:
The allele for red flowers (R) is dominant over the allele for white flowers (r). Let's say a snapdragon flower had the genotype Rr, one allele for red flowers and one for white. In the case of 'normal' dominance the dominant red flower allele (R) would mask the effects of the recessive white flower allele (r), resulting in the phenotype (outward observable characteristics) of having red flowers.
However here in the case of incomplete dominance, the dominant allele would not be able to fully cover up the effects of the white flower allele, meaning that both colors (red and white) are expressed in the phenotype, resulting in pink flowers.

A, because it the constant variable
It is an essential element for plant life, but when there is too much of it in water, it can speed up eutrophication (a reduction in dissolved oxygen in water bodies caused by an increase of mineral and organic nutrients) of rivers and lakes. Soil erosion is a major contributor of phosphorus to streams.
Answer:
e) Political governance.
b) Health.
d) Personal activities, including work.
c) Education.
f) Social recreation issues.
g) Environmental conditions (current and future conditions).
a) Material life
h) Financial safety and security.
Explanation:
The quality of life is an index that is calculated by using different estimators that covers diverse aspects of human life such as, among others health, safety, happiness, security, transportation, etc. The INEGI (National Institute of Statistics and Geography, Mexico) calculates the quality of life by using the estimators above described (and others). In my opinion, the most important one of this list is political governance, because it is an underlying characteristic that has a direct effect on the further estimators, thereby affecting their performance in a short/medium-term period.
