Answer:

c. Most scientist, including Darwin thought species were product of natural processes and changed over time.

Explanation:

Darwin was not the first scientist to think or proposed that the species changed over the time, but in his expedition and through several observations, he concluded that these changes over the time are the consequence of the adaptations of the living things to the environment that surround it.

That is the reason why his theory mixed with Mendel genetics discover, changed the point of view of the evolution in species.

Caffeine prolongs and intensifies the effects of epinephrine. Which of the following potential mechanisms of action of caffeine
kherson [118]

Answer:

a. inhibits cAMP phosphodiesterase, the enzyme that converts cAMP to AMP.

Explanation:

The phosphodiesterases are a group of enzymes that are capable of breaking phosphodiester bonds such as those between nucleotides in nucleic acids. The Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is a second messenger involved in intracellular signaling pathways. This molecule (cAMP) is hydrolyzed by the cAMP-dependent phosphodiesterase, which catalyzes the enzymatic breakdown of phosphodiester bonds (i.e., hydrolyzing cAMP to 5-AMP). The cAMP levels are modulated by the balance between its generation and the degradation via cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase.

paragraph about how genetic variation and environmental pressures can cause a change in population just a simple paragraph
AlladinOne [14]
Genetic variation in a population allows for phenotypic variation, meaning that different traits exist in the same population. When the environment changes, the members of the population are tested by natural selection with regards to how well adapted their specific traits are to the new environment. If the traits they have do not suit their environment, this results in reduced survival and fitness, leading to less of that trait in the population. However, if the traits they have are adapted to the environment, they become naturally selected for with better survivability and fitness (leading to a higher frequency of that trait in the population). Thus, evolution has occurred.
