The correct answer is stabilizing selection reduces the amount of variation in a trait. disruptive selection increases the amount of variation in a trait.
Stabilizing selection is a type of natural selection in which genetic diversity decreases because natural selection favours an average phenotype and selects against extreme variations.
<span>
Disruptive selection is a type of natural selection in which extreme values for a trait are favoured over intermediate values, thus it increases genetic variance.</span>
It would be A, because a fossil forms after an animal dies, and hundreds to thousands of years of soil or sediment coversit's body, preserving it. :)
<span>It helps scientists understand how populations and species react to changes in their environment, and this knowledge can be used to help these populations and species survive.</span>
Meiosis is a special type of cell division in sexually-reproducing organisms used to produce the gametes, such as sperm or egg cells.
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option 4. This type of research is often successful in advancing knowledge regarding the functioning of human cells because <span>cellular research using mice can always be applied to human cells since all complex organisms produce the same proteins.</span>
Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
