In your own words, explain how adaptive traits spread

Biology
1 answer:
Neko [114]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Natural selection only acts on the population's heritable traits: selecting for beneficial alleles and thus increasing their frequency in the population, while selecting against deleterious alleles and thereby decreasing their frequency—a process known as adaptive evolution.

What feature of living things do the terms unicellular and multicellular describe
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The term unicellular and multicellular describe how living things are organized.

Explanation:

The number of cells in living things determine how the body organization will be.

Living things are made up of cells in which there are two types of living cells. We have the unicellular and multicellular cells.

The unicellular are made up of one cell (single cell) the unicellular organisms are simple cells which make their functions simple while the multicellular organisms are made up of two or more organisms and their functions are special unlike the unicellular which the functions are simple

Abiogenesis refers to how living organisms arose from inanimate matter. Place the sentences in order according to how life on Ea
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

(A) -> (D) -> (C) -> (B)

Explanation:

First off, given that the problem requires us to explain how life on Earth may have arisen <u>from terrestrial origins</u>, we can discard sentence (E), as impacts from meteorites would count as extraterrestrial origins.

Then it's just a matter of describing the steps by which simple compounds turned into more and more complex structures, that would in turn lead to the origin of life.

Simple inorganic compounds (such as CO₂, or NH₃) were exposed to energy, because of that they formed simple organic molecules, like carbohydrates or amino acids.

These organic molecules, in turn, would self-assemble into more complex structures, such as proteins.

Lastly, there's the phenomenon of Compartmentalization, where large organic structures became enclosed within a membrane-like structure, separating them from the 'outside' medium and thus creating primitive cells.
