Over many generations, the fur on polar bears mutated white to help the bears hide better in the snow.

True.
Polar bears evolved from the brown bear. Their fur mutated from dark to adapt to the colder climate and to hide in the snow. Probably, in the past, there were some bears with mutated lighter fur. This trait allowed them to survive so that mutated gene was transmitted to the next generations. Lighter fur allowed them to retain body heat and better to hide during hunting. White bears had a higher fitness than brown bears in the cold climate, so generations later, all polar bears were white.

Redacta un escrito dónde expliques como está formado(un ecosistema), menciona ejemplos y como sigue una estabilidad por el equil
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Un ecosistema esta formado por facotres abioticos y bioticos.

Los factores bioticos son aquellos que presentan signos vitales, es decir que cumplen con la vida, metabolismo, respiracion, entre otras funciones vivas.

Los factores abietos son aquellos que no tienen vida pero con los que los factores bioticos intercambian energia, un ejemplo de esto son las rocas, los vientos, los sedimentos, la tierra fertil.

Los factores bioticos serian los organismos vivos como los animales, que al funcionar como sistemas abiertos de intercambio de energia constante mantienen un equilibrio fisico biologico con los factores bioticos.

Explanation:

Los ecosistemas cumplen con una cadena que no debe romperse ni faltar ningun eslabon, si esta continuidad se interrumpe con la extincion de una especie como animal o vegetal el ecosistema variará, y cambiara toda su conformacion.

Es un conjunto de factores bioticos y abioticos en armonia que se complementan e intercambian energia entre si de manera ordenada en eslabones, si uno de estos eslabones se rompe, se extingue, o se modifica por intervencion del hombre u otros factores TODO el escosistema se verá modificado o afectado.

Answer:

orensically valuable DNA can be found on evidence that is decades old. However, several factors can affect the DNA left at a crime scene, including environmental factors (e.g., heat, sunlight, moisture, bacteria, and mold). Therefore, not all DNA evidence will result in a usable DNA profile.
