Natural selection is basically when organisms with the best traits survive and pass on their good traits to their offspring so that they will adapt easily and survive. Organisms who do not have ‘good traits’ that help them adapt and escape predators will be killed or eaten before they reproduce.
So in the end, natural selection is a form of evolution that allows the ‘fittest’ animals to survive and reproduce, while weeding out the unfit.
Answer:
Apoptosis also plays a key role in human development. For instance, as we saw in the introduction, your hand started out as a paddle-like block of tissue when you were an embryo. The block was “carved” into fingers by apoptosis of the cells in between the developing fingers.
Explanation:
Answer:
Termites have cellulose-digesting protists in their guts.
Explanation:
Termites are able to access nutrients contained in cellulose due to their mutualistic association with some cellulose-digesting protists such as <em>Trichonympha</em> and M<em>ixotricha</em>. The protists produce cellulase in addition to other glycolytic enzymes that work together to convert cellulose to malate.
The malate produced is further metabolized to produce
, hydrogen, acetate and energy in the form of ATP.
The protists get sheltered in the termite's gut in return.
Answer:
Explanation:
False
Elastic collision is one where two colliding particles both lose some of the kinetic energy. gases tend to have lower densities than solids because gases have lower molar mass. ... if a gas and a liquid are both at the same temperature, the particles of gas have a higher average kinetic energy.
