Give one example of how natural selection can change the distribu- tion of a trait.

Biology
1 answer:
kaheart [24]3 years ago
6 0

One example would involve the appearance of black/white lizards in the dessert. Since the white lizards would blend in the sand, they would get eaten less allowing natural selection to favor them over the black lizards. Over time, this will create an unequal distribution of lizards as there will be many more white lizards than black.

Hope this helped :)

What are some non examples of microclimate?
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Microclimates exist, for example, near bodies of water which may cool the local atmosphere, or in heavy urban areas where brick, concrete, and asphalt absorb the sun's energy, heat up, and re-radiate that heat to the ambient air: the resulting urban heat island is a kind of microclimate.

What are they five steps of cloning?
Luda [366]

Hi

Below are five major steps of DNA or gene cloning:

1: You chose the gene or specific piece of DNA you need to clone and cut the gene with restriction enzymes from the source organism.

2: You need to choose a vector for the process of cloning and you will cut the vector with same restriction enzymes through which you have cut your target DNA sequence to be inserted into the vector.

3: You place the target gene into the vector and join or seal the gene with vector by using an enzyme called DNA ligase.

4: You introduce the vector with your target gene into a suitable host organism such as yeast or bacteria through the process of Transformation. In this process host organism takes up the vector containing your target gene and starts replicating the target DNA along with their own DNA and thus creating millions of copies of target gene .

5: In the last step, the DNA or target gene is isolated from host organism and purified and is ready to be used since its quantity has been enormously increased through the process of cloning.

The cloning is also called as recombinant DNA technology and is the main process that is being used in the production of insulin for diabetes patients. You can see below image for better understanding.

Hope it help!

Of the following chemicals, which is least likely to be biologically magnified as it moves through food webs?a.radioactive isoto
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

e.DDT

Explanation:

DDT is biologically magnified and concentrated as it moves through the food web. This increase in concentration is due to Metabolism of DDT which excretes more slowly than the nutrients which moves from one trophic level to  next. so DDT accumulates in the body especially in the Fats.

Do some organisms outcompete eachother
Helen [10]
