Answer: The correct answer is- Adaptive evolution is a permanent change in a trait.

Adaptive evolution can be described as increase in the frequency of alleles that are beneficial to the survival of an organism whereas decrease in the allele frequency that do not give any importance to the survival and reproduction of organism. It results because of natural selection.

Therefore, it depicts a permanent change in a trait as natural selection acts on the heritable traits of an individual.

Term referring to the process in which certain compounds increase in concentration within biotic tissues as they move up through
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

a. Biomagnification

Explanation:

Biomagnification is the name given to the progressive accumulation of substances from one trophic level to another along a food chain. Thus, the substance will have its highest concentration in individuals who occupy trophic levels furthest from producers.

For biomagnification to occur, substances must be fat soluble (lipid soluble) and thus adhere to living tissues. Another feature of substances that undergo biomagnification is that they are generally not biodegradable or metabolized by the body.

The phenomenon is quite common with heavy metals (lead; mercury) and certain chlorinated and aromatic organic compounds with higher molecular mass, such as the insecticide DDT.

Describe the effect that sickle cell anemia has on the sedimentation rate (sample 3. why do you think that it has this effect?
Eva8 [605]
Sickle cell anemia is a genetic condition that distorts the shape of the hemoglobin. This reduces the capacity of the red blood cells to carry oxygen. Another effect is that the distorted red blood cells come together forming a heavy and compact collection of cells that can block the flow of blood. The sedimentation rate is increased by sickle cell anemia.
