Answer:

C. Natural selection favors individuals that reproduce more than others.

Explanation:

Genetic variations present in the population are acted upon by natural selection. The organisms that have the adaptive traits which in turn make them able to survive and reproduce more than the other individuals are favored by natural selection.

Over generations, natural selection leads to the evolution of a new population with an increased frequency of the gene responsible for the selected adaptive trait.  

For example, the bacteria with antibiotic resistance were favored by natural selection as they can survive and produce more progeny in the presence of antibiotics than the bacteria lacking the gene for antibiotic resistance.

Explain how phospholipids form cell membranes.
dem82 [27]

Answer:

Phospholipids are able to form cell membranes because the phosphate group head is hydrophilic (water-loving) while the fatty acid tails are hydrophobic (water-hating). They automatically arrange themselves in a certain pattern in water because of these properties, and form cell membranes.

matrenka [14]

Answer: The first law of thermodynamics establishes that energy cannot be created neither destroyed.

Explanation:

So the grasshopers eat the grass to gain energy and then the birds eat the grasshopers to gain energy as well so by doing that they are just passing the energy to one another to power muscles and other body parts which follows the laws of thermodynamics that energy is not created but transfered from one system to another.  

Hope this helps ! -Enrique, Biology Major :)
