Distinguish between directional, stabilizing, and disruptive selection. Give examples.
Pepsi [2]
Distribution of phenotypes within a population may be impacted by different types of natural selection. These types of selection include;
Directional selection involves a change in the environment shifts of phenotypes observed. Example is the giraffe neck-length, where the length got longer and longer over time to reach the leaves at the top of trees.
Stabilizing selection , this is a selection where an average phenotype is favored. example is number of eggs laid by birds such that too many eggs will be a waste of energy because some chicks would starve.
Disruptive selection is a selection where individuals with an average value of a trait are affected most while those with values below average are affected least. Example small individuals are capable of hiding from predators while big individuals can not fit in the hiding place but instead will fight with predators.

Glucose travels in the plasma or liquid part of
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Glucose is a sugar, highly soluble in water because it has lots of polar hydroxyl groups (-OH) which can form hydrogen-bonds with water molecules. These types of bonds are intermolecular forces which are present in other macromolecules like the DNA or proteins.

Cholesterol and triglycerids are lipids. These have long chains of hydrocarbons, which are non polar and therefore insoluble in water.

Blood is made of a solid and a liquid part. <u>The solid part contains cells</u>. <u>The liquid part (plasma), is made of water, salts, and proteins</u>. Glucose and cholesterol/triglycerids travel in the liquid part of the blood, in an aqueous environment. Because the lipids are not soluble, they need to travel with a carrier protein that keeps them protected from the surrounding water.

kow [346]
Obligate symbiotic fungi that form associations with plants by entering their cortical cells without invading the plant cells membrane are called endomycorrhizae and include the genus Glomus. Many plants form associations called mycorrhizae with fungi that give them access to nutrients in the soil, protecting against disease and toxicities.  In these associations the fungi are integrated into the physical structure of the root, where the fungi colonize the living root tissue during active plant growth.
