Answer:
Selection is a directional process that leads to an increase or a decrease in the frequency of genes or genotypes. Selection is the process that increases the frequencies of plant resistance alleles in natural ecosystems through coevolution, and it is the process that increases the frequencies of virulence alleles in agricultural ecosystems during boom and bust cycles.
Selection occurs in response to a specific environmental factor. It is a central topic of population and evolutionary biology. The consequence of natural selection on the genetic structure and evolution of organisms is complicated. Natural selection can decrease the genetic variation in populations of organisms by selecting for or against a specific gene or gene combination (leading to directional selection). It can increase the genetic variation in populations by selecting for or against several genes or gene combinations (leading to disruptive selection or balancing selection). Natural selection might lead to speciation through the accumulation of adaptive genetic differences among reproductively isolated populations. Selection can also prevent speciation by homogenizing the population genetic structure across all locations.
Selection in plant pathology is mainly considered in the framework of gene-for-gene coevolution. Plant pathologists often think in terms of Van der Plank and his concept of "stabilizing selection" that would operate against pathogen strains with unnecessary virulence. As we will see shortly, Van der Plank used the wrong term, as he was actually referring to directional selection against unneeded virulence alleles.

as a whole are;
1. The use of internet platforms and social media. It
involves the use of social media and websites whre citizens can anonymously
report corruption.

different sources. This strategy uses
sources from different data that would expectedly give similar results in the

Answer: Higher concentration; Lower concentration.
Explanation: The food that we eat undergoes digestion and breaks down into smaller components.
These small components of the food needs to be absorbed first by the process of diffusion.
The water molecules along with the electrolytes are absorbed from an area of its higher concentration in the lumen is transported to area where its concentration is very low.
Hence, the correct answer is diffusion, which is responsible for the transportation of products from one place (higher concentration) to another parts (lower concentration)in the body.
Arteries always flow away from the heart versus veins which carry blood to the heart. Bronchi are part of the lungs and move air. Platelets are components of blood that are responsible for clotting the blood.
