Hunting IS NOT a form of artificial selection because it is not a form of breeding. Artificial selection refers to the intentional breeding of plants or animals. An example would be a thoroughbred racehorses, because they were selectively bred.

Answer:

D). Hunting is a form of negative artificial selection, with the genes that humans want (i.e., the biggest buck or largest fish), being removed from the gene pool, allowing the less wanted genes to pass on to the next generation.

Explanation:

Artificial selection consists of selective crosses, performed by humans, in order to select desirable phenotypic characteristics. In other words, we can say that artificial selection consists in putting desirable characteristics on something in the environment, however, hunting removes characteristics of the environment as a result of death caused by hunting. For this reason, hunting is considered a negative artificial selection.

how do ionizing radiation, ultraviolet radiation, and visible light harm microorganisms? how do microorganisms protect themselve
7nadin3 [17]

Microorganism protect themselves against harmful UV light and visible light by using Iron minerals around themselves.

The iron minerals have unique properties in that they block damaging UV radiation while yet allowing organisms to utilise the portion of sunlight required for photosynthesis. UV rays kill cells by damaging their DNA. Two molecules of thymine, one of the bases that makes up DNA, react when exposed to light. The thymine dimer that results is extremely stable. The cell cannot perform its usual tasks if cellular processes are interfered as a result of an inadequate repair or unrepaired damage of thymine dimer.
