Biodiversity is the variety of organisms that live in the biosphere. Speciation, directional, disruptive, and stabilizing selection affect biodiversity by showing the evolutionary process of new species, showing traits that are favored extremely, showing the variations of the traits, and showing the average individuals in each population.

Speciation forms new species.

Directional selection favors one extreme of a phenotype, which leads to evolution and adaptive change of a species.

Disruptive selection selects against the average and leads to evolution and genetic variation of a species.

Stabilizing selection favors the average individual in a population, which does not lead to adaptive change or evolution, and reduces variation.

List the cardiovascular and cardiac features unique to the fetus and describe their role in fetal circulation; explain the fate
STatiana [176]

Cardiovascular features unique to the Fetus:

Fetal circulation is characterized by low systemic vascular resistance (SVR) with high systemic blood flow and high pulmonary vascular resistance with low pulmonary blood flow.

<h3>What is fetal circulation?</h3>

The embryonic circulatory system directs blood that needs oxygen through three shunts, or microscopic tunnels. These shunts are intended to avoid forming organs like the liver and lungs while the fetus is still in the womb.

The foramen ovale, which carries blood from the right atrium of the heart to the left atrium, and the ductus arteriosus, which takes blood from the pulmonary artery to the aorta, are the two shunts that bypass the lungs.

Through the placenta, the mother's blood supplies the fetus with nutrition and oxygen. The enhanced blood divides into three branches as it travels via the umbilical cord to the liver.
