How does natural selection “drive” evolution?

Biology
1 answer:
yanalaym [24]3 years ago

Because predators and prey must learn (or adapt) new ways of survival. Deer over time have learned to be much more sensitive to the surrounding environment, therefore, a deer's predator must also adapt/evolve and learn how to beat the deer at it's own game and catch it for food. Animals must evolve/adapt to any given environment. If humans lived in Antarctica for thousands of years, we would eventually be able to withstand the cold due to evolution. People who live in the Himalayas today actually breath normally at such high altitudes whereas if someone who lives at sea level went to where the Himalayan people lived, the result could potentiality be fatal because the body has not adapted/evolved at that point to withstand minimal oxygen.

The coenzymes of which b-vitamin are needed for the synthesis and maintenance of new cells?
anyanavicka [17]

The coenzymes of <u>folate </u>b-vitamin are needed for the synthesis and maintenance of new cells

<h3>What is b-vitamin?</h3>

B vitamins are a group of water-soluble vitamins that are crucial for red blood cell production and cell metabolism. Despite having names that sound similar (B1, B2, B3, etc.), these vitamins are chemically different substances that frequently coexist in the same foods. Dietary supplements that include all eight are typically referred to as vitamin B complexes. The exact number or name of each vitamin, such as B1 for thiamine, B2 for riboflavin, and B3 for niacin, is used to identify individual B vitamin supplements. Some substances, like pantothenic acid, biotin, and folate, are better known by their names than by their chemical names.

Each B vitamin either functions as a cofactor (usually a coenzyme) for important metabolic processes or functions as a precursor required to produce one.

Answer

#1. A reduction in habitat for arctic seals will reduce the population of arctic seals. This will reduce the capture efficiency for killer whales preying on arctic seals because there will be fewer to capture. A reduction in habitat for arctic seals will lower the carrying capacity for arctic seals because there is less habitat. A reduction in arctic seals, the food for killer whales, will reduce the carrying capacity for killer whales, unless there is a substitute source of food.

#2. If there is another source of food for killer whales, the population of killer whales will probably remain the same, if they were at their carrying capacity and their habitat remains the same. If there is another source of food for killer whales, the population of arctic seals will still decrease, because the habitat for arctic seals has decreased, and habitat is independent of predator population.

#3. There are many limitations on any simulation. The computer only uses the parameters in the program, so changes in ocean temperature, weather patterns, salinity changes, food supply, habitat, interaction with other species and presence of plants and zooplankton are not considered. All of those can change and change the results.

A gene involved in neural development shows three times as many synonymous site substitutions than nonsynonymous ones. A likely
viva [34]

Answer:

e. is under purifying selection

Explanation:

Purifying selection removes deleterious alleles that can arise through

random mutations

.

Mutations  may or may not have consequences at the level of genetic expression depending on whether those mutations are synonymous or nonsynonymous. Synonymous mutations do not generate changes in the protein to be encoded while non-synonymous ones do.

Important genes for the development of the organism - such as those involved in the  neural development- are very likely to be under purifying selection, eliminating individuals with deleterious alleles since those alleles (product of non-synonymous substitutions) do not allow the individuals to survive.
