Answer:

organisms that are best adapted to the environment they are placed in will survive long enough to pass on their genes to their offspring while other organisms will become extinct.

Explanation:

Every now and then an organism in a species will undergo a mutation in their DNA. This mutation could do nothing but it may also lead them to getting, for example, longer legs than their counterparts. This may help them survive longer than other organisms as this mutated adaptation may help them run faster away from predators. These organisms will probably be able to outlive their less fortunate counterparts and they can then pass on their genes to their offspring, who will then gain the same mutated genes which will help them live longer. This continues for generations with the organisms who don't have the more specialised adaptation dying out as they are not able to escape from their predators

Answer:

Organisms more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive than organisms that aren't.

Explanation:

Organisms that are more well equiped to where they live will live longer than an animal who is far less adapted. One example could be if a polar bear and rattle snake live in the desert. The rattle snake is more adapted to the desert than the polar bear, therefore it will also be more likely to survive.

What is the most direct way that increasing the minimum wage can lead to more government revenue?
natulia [17]

It encourages spending, which increases other kinds of tax.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Increasing the minimum wages increases the standard of people from the poverty line. It not only increases the welfare but also increases the spending among the people. But raising the wages also creates a negative effect causing inflation and higher costs for the business. This would decrease the profit of the firm.

The spending profile of employees helps us to access how they spend their extra earned money on purchasing things which is acquired by the government in the form of taxes. The combination of these direct and indirect effects results in lower economic activity.
