The earth’s orbit around the sun is a perihelion. The orbit is also  not a true elliptic circle because the orbit is influenced by other nearby celestial orbits such as the planets in the solar system. On occasion, the orbit is deformed putting a particular part of the earth’s orbit closer to or farther from the sun. Also, the barycentre of the solar system changes as the alignment of the solar system’s celestial bodies varies over time.

Complete the sentences to describe natural selection
Vikentia [17]
  1. The environment needs to change in order to natural selection to occur.

Reason:

Because, Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype. It is a key mechanism of evolution, the change in the heritable traits characteristic of a population over generations.

2. Population has some genetic variations.

Reason:

Genetic variation is essential for natural selection because natural selection can only increase or decrease frequency of alleles that already exist in the population. Genetic variation is caused by:

mutation and random mating between organisms

3. Nature select organism with specific traits to survive and reproduce.

Reason:

According to Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, organisms that possess heritable traits that enable them to better adapt to their environment compared with other members of their species will be more likely to survive, reproduce, and pass more of their genes on to the next generation.

Why does only 10% move to the next trophic level?
Shalnov [3]
The amount of energy at each trophic level decreases as it moves through an ecosystem. As little as 10 percent of the energy at any trophic level is transferred to the next level; the rest is lost largely through metabolic processes as heat.
