Answer:

I learned about this in the 8th grade! Let me share with you what I know!!

Natural selection is the process that enables adaptation and speciation by advancing new traits throughout a population of organisms.

Reproduction is at the core of natural selection because that is how genes are passed along to the next generation. However, survival is important; the better an individual survives, the more it will reproduce, and the more its new beneficial trait will be passed along.

<u>More simple way to put it:</u>

Natural selection relies on reproductive advantages.

If a mutation grants a reproductive advantage to its carrier, chances are his genes will be passed on more often to the future generations.

Natural selection is a central concept of evolution. Natural selection is the process where organisms with favorable traits are more likely to reproduce. In doing so, they pass on these traits to the next generation. Over this time this process allows organisms to adapt to their environment.

Best answer gets brainiest

belka [17]

Answer: Warm air rises, creating a low pressure zone; cool air sinks, creating a high pressure zone. Air that moves horizontally between high and low pressure zones makes wind. The greater the pressure difference between the pressure zones the faster the wind moves. Convection in the atmosphere creates the planet's weather.

Hope this helps... Stay safe and have a great weekend!!! :D

Why are fossil fuels considered a nonrenewable energy source?

joja [24]

Fossil fuels are considered a nonrenewable energy source because once fossil fuels are used, they are gone. So, the correct option is A.

<h3>What do you mean by Nonrenewable energy?</h3>

Nonrenewable energy may be defined as that energy that once consumed can not be replenished for millions of years.

Fossil fuels are examples of nonrenewable energy resources. The formation of fossil fuels may take over millions of years. This fuel is made naturally by the decomposition of dead and decayed organic living matter.

Therefore, the correct option for this question is A.

Using Figure 1 answer the following questions: What is the probability (enter a percentage) of producing an offspring with the f

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

PP = 25%

Pp = 50%

pp = 25%

Explanation:

Using punnett square, we can predict the percentage probability of genotypes.

P p

P PP Pp

p Pp pp

In this cross we have,

PP = 1/4 = 25%

Pp = 2/4 = 50%

pp = 1/4 = 25%

We have ratio,

1 : 2 : 1

Answer: The genes that can give you red-green color blindness are passed down on the X chromosome. Since it's passed down on the X chromosome, red-green color blindness is more common in men. This is because: Males have only 1 X chromosome, from their mother.
