Read the following scenarios carefully and explain how natural selection will occur in each.
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Noctural worms have the advantage over diurnal due to the fact that the nocturnal worms are burrowing during the feeding time of birds.

Explanation:

Natural selection is the process in which organisms adapt according to environmental changes to increase their survival rate. Natural selection leads to natural changes in different organisms.

In this case, diurnal worms are forced by the natural selection here to adapt to the change if they want to survive. Here, natural selection works for the nocturnal and against the diurnal.

In Alaska, grizzly bears must eat 10 fish and drink up to 25 liters of water to live. A
EleoNora [17]

The fish is the limiting factor because its population <u>determines the survival and availability  of the grizzly bears.</u>

A limiting factor is  resources(biotic or abiotic) that affects or determine the availabity and growth of an organism or group of an organism within an ecosystem.

The more fish it takes, the more the liver produces urea, and kidney tubules  makes use of the urea in it tubules for urine formation in the loop of Henle. The urine formation and loss, leads to intake of water and the sequence continues.

This is an example of a biological limiting factor because the bear  predate on the fish for survival and population.

If the population of the fish drops,( <u>the limiting facto</u>r) the bear drinks less water based on above, and therefore <u>disruptions  of the ecosystem</u>.

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Option C, Correct Behavior genetics

Explanation:

Behaviour genetics is the study of the influence of both genes and environment on the behaviour of an individual. This study is done to understand how both genes and environment together affect the behaviour of an individual. It is believed that all forms of behaviors are either inherited or learned. Mr. Hill is noting the concordance rates of music ability  for both biological children (who might have inherited this ability from their parents) and adopted children (who might have learned this ability from the musical environment around them)

Hence, option C is correct
