Answer:
The correct answer is- adaptive radiation
Explanation:
Adaptive radiation is the evolutionary process which allow the evolution of many species from a single species because some population of that species get into an environment which is different from their old environment in terms of food availability, predators, etc.
So the first bird that evolved the ability to fly branched into many different species due to habitat change is an example of adaptive radiation. The most famous example of adaptive radiation is Darwinian finches which evolved from an ancestral species of south America that reached Galapagos island.
Answer:
During meiosis, an event known as chromosomal crossing over sometimes occurs as a part of recombination. In this process, a region of one chromosome is exchanged for a region of another chromosome, thereby producing unique chromosomal combinations that further divide into haploid daughter cells.
It is a lipid. Lipids are some of the most complex basic materials in biology. You can remember them as they have 23 hydrogens, and one H0.
Answer/Explanation:
Natural selection - over time - selects for traits that improve fitness. A butterfly with wing coloration that looks like a hungry owl would certainly be a deterrent to their natural predators, such as smaller birds. This is because the owl is the predator of the smaller birds, and their instinct is to avoid the owl.
If a mutation arose that resulting in coloration that looked like an owl, (or at least slightly menacing) this would be beneficial to the butterfly, as it would be more camouflaged from predators. This means it would be more likely to reach reproductive age and pass the mutation onto its offspring, who would also have a competitive advantage.
Over time, this would lead to a population of butterflies with coloration that looks more and more owl-like .
As long as you are referring to the green plants aka producers of the food chain/web.
