Answer:

The correct answer will be Option-B

Explanation:

Micro-evolution represents the change in the frequency of the genes in populations in a small period of time and thus can be observed easily.

The case of the House sparrows which were introduced in the colder climates of North America in 1852 grew larger in size as compared to the sparrows of South America.  

This change in the size happened as a result of the natural selection in which the colder climate selected the sparrows with large body size and thus large size of the body was passed on the generations and became permanent.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

HELP PLEASEEE!! 10 points and BRAINLIEST!!
malfutka [58]

Answer:

Well the most common is habittat destruction. With the number of humans only growing, more land is needed and habitat desturctions occur. Lack of food is also a problem, as some crops don’t grow as much so the bee’s food source is smaller which leaves thousands dead. Also if the food source doesn’t run out, there are pesticides sprayed and the bees will die if eaten one which the chemical properties in a pesticide will kill. Also if not used, littering, if you dump it into a water source, the water gets contaminated and the bees could die from that, or the water spreads ano the flower would receive this chemical property, which could kill the Bee’s food source, or the flower doesn’t die but when the bees consume it, the bee will die.

archaeans differ from eukaryotes and bacteria in that Choose one: A. archaeal membranes use ester links to bond glycerol to side
Nady [450]

Answer:

D. archaeal membranes contain L-glycerol.

Explanation:

Archaea and eubacteria differ from each other with respect to the nature of membrane lipids. Lipids present in the membranes of the archaeans have the hydrocarbons derived from isoprene units. These hydrocarbons are branched and are attached to the glycerol with help of ether linkage. Ester linkages are present in eubacteria. The glycerol present in the archaeans is L- glycerol. Bacterial membranes have D-glycerol present in their lipids.
