Valentin [98]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

According to the theory of evolution by natural selection wolves with mutations will outgrow the wolves without mutation.

Explanation:

Nature always poses challenges to the living organisms in various forms like climate change, food scarcity, natural disasters, etc. If an organism has a characteristic to survive better than the other, then they will be selected by the nature. We can also use the term fitness for this. Darwin also referred about this as reproductive fitness which means only those organisms which are fit in their environment produce more progeny and increase in number. s we can see that the introduction of mutation has added the advantage of being faster and stronger, so when it comes to competition for food the wolves with mutation can easily catch the predator than wolves without mutation. Since mutation has resulted in better adaptation to their environment they will outgrow in number.

Why do cells divide instead of just grow larger?
kherson [118]

Answer:  As we all grow, why don’t the cells just get bigger instead of getting more of them? Cells are limited in size because the outside (the cell membrane) must transport the food and oxygen to the parts inside.
