AfilCa [17]3 years ago

Arteries carry blood (with oxygen) from our heart out to your body, while veins carry blood (without oxygen) from your body to your heart. Arteries are strong, flexible blood vessels that are able to expand (get bigger) and contract (get smaller). They expand as your heart beats, and contract between heart beats. Veins are less flexible than arteries. They have valves (doors) that open and close to let blood through.

Populations adapt to changing environmental conditions as a result of __________. populations adapt to changing environmental co
barxatty [35]
Natural selection is the process that result in the adaptation of an organism to environment by means of selectively reproducing changes in its genotype, or genetic constitution. It is the a key mechanism of evolution. Charles Darwin popularised the term "natural selection" contrasting it with artificial selection, which is intentional, whereas natural selection is not.
To make it simple, let's have a group of beetle composing of green and some are brown as an example. here, there is a variation in traits. Since the environment could not support continuous population growth, not all species can reproduce to their full potential. Green beetles can easily be eaten by other species like birds compared to brown beetles. The surviving brown beetles will then generate brown offsprings because their trait has a genetic basis. Since more brown beetles survive and becomes more common in the population, the process continues until all individuals will eventually be brown. so basically, if you have variation, differential reproduction, and heredity, you will have evolution by natural selection as an outcome.
