The first observation is overproduction. This means all species produce more offspring than will survive to become adults. Think of all the thousands of fish eggs produced each year. This means populations of species should be getting larger all the time, but they aren't, because there are mechanisms in place to curb population explosions, such as competition for food, predation, and disease. From this, Darwin was able to make a deduction: there is a struggle for existence. Many of those fish eggs are food for predators, who would not survive without them.
Darwin's second observation was variation. This means members of the same species show variation in characteristics. For example, zebras show variation in pattern and color of their stripes. Goldfish have gold scales, orange scales, or brown scales, or a mixture of all three.
Variation applies to all traits, even those essential for the survival of the individual organism. An eagle depends on excellent eyesight to locate prey, but it can still be born shortsighted. This means that variations are random and are not specific to any favorable adaptation.
The next observation, selection , means organisms that survive are more likely to reproduce and pass on favorable adaptations to their offspring than those with unfavorable adaptations. For example, height is an inheritable characteristic, and for the giraffe, having long necks (which added to their height) was reproductively advantageous. The taller giraffes were able to reach leaves in tall trees, which kept them alive longer, and able to reproduce, making them more reproductively fit than shorter giraffes who couldn't reach those leaves and died without reproducing.
The last observation Darwin made wasadaptation . This means that some traits are passed on to new generations and become common within the population, like the long neck of the giraffe. This doesn't happen overnight, it takes time for these traits to spread throughout a population.
So, what does this mean for natural selection and genetic diversity? Let's find out.
A couple of homologous chromosomes, or homologs, are a set of one maternal and one paternal chromosome that pair up with each other inside a cell during fertilization.
I believe this refers to the reaction between Zinc and Hydrochloric acid.
When this happens, the solution will be Zinc Chloride but as it happened in a solution (the acid), the resulting Zinc Chloride salt would be in aqueous form which means that it would be a solution in water which is the other product of this reaction.
Had the zinc reacted with gaseous HCI, it would have resulted in a Zinc Chloride with no liquid in it.
The correct answer is "Interference with viral replication".
Explanation:
The complement system is an essential part of the immune system that involves the activation of a series of proteins that act as a cascade and result in the development of inflammatory responses that help to fight infections. There are multiple effects of complement activation, however interference with viral replication is not one of them. The molecules that are able to interfere with viral replication are called interferons, and they synthesis and activation are not related with complement activation.
The sclerenchyma is the tissue in which creates the plant firm and hard. The two kinds of sclerenchyma cells exist fibers and sclereids. Their cell walls be made up of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. The sclerenchyma cells are the principal associate cells in plant tissues that have come to a close elongation.
