Natural selection act directly upon <u>Alleles</u>

Explanation:

Genes, such as that of fur color, have many variants called alleles. Natural selection act on the alleles and chooses the best fit for an environment and eliminates the disadvantageous ones from the population over generations. Mutations are a rare occurrence that increases the number of allelic variants of a genes on which natural selection can act upon.

Name three reasons fossil fuels are detrimental to earth
Nady [450]

1. In order to procure fossil fuels, or even to burn them, we create a great deal of pollution.  All of the pollution that is being created is extremely bad for the Earth because it contributed to global warming.  

2. When we create new mining cites, we remove trees and soil that was once the home to plant, animal, and insect life.  

3. Oil is a very useful fossil fuel, it is used to power many things.  But due to the very dangerous nature of fossil fuels, an explosion in Mexico in 2010 caused 210,000,000 U.S. gallons of oil to spill into a gulf.  This spill lead to the drowning and poisoning of immeasurable amounts of aquatic animal life.

Based on the data, what is the probability a randomly chosen cell will be observed undergoing cell division? You may use the cal
dexar [7]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

<em>The active state of cell division covers the prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. The total number of observed cells that were undergoing cell division can, thus, be calculated by adding the number of cells in each stage of the cell division.</em>

Total number of cell in division = 20+4+2+4

                = 30

Probability that a randomly chose cell will be undergoing cell division = <em>number of cells in division/total number of cells</em>

     = 30/200

          = 0.15 or 15%

The correct option is, therefore, A.
