Three of the major characteristics used to classify organisms are cell structure, mode of nutrition and cellularity. These characteristics help scientists determine how organisms are similar to each other as well as how they are different from each other.

Classifying an organism according to its cell structure means determining if it is a prokaryote or eukaryote and then determining if the organism has a cell wall or other organelles, according to Dave Krupp of the University of Hawaii .

Mode of nutrition refers to how an organism gets its food. Organisms can be classified as autotrophs or heterotrophs. Autotrophs make their own food, while heterotrophs must eat other organisms to survive. If an organism is an autotroph, it can also be classified as a photoautotroph or a chemoautotroph. Stephen T. Abedon of Ohio State explains that photoautotrophs produce their own food using energy from sunlight. Chemoautotrophs produce food using the energy from electron-donating compounds.

Cellularity refers to how many cells an organism has and how those cells are arranged. Some organisms are single-celled, while others are multicellular. Advanced organisms have cells organized into tissues.

goblinko [34]
I'm not sure if I will answer the question you asked, as I many have interpreted it incorrectly. In natural selection, there must be variance in the gene pool, the total frequency of alleles in a population. Now, one of the organisms may have a gene that somehow helps them survive from the selective force much better compared to the others. If this does happen, over time the gene pool will narrow down to become just the genes of that organism that survived better in the first place because the rest would be taken care of by the selective force. So, the alleles and trait come from the first organisms that had the advantage over the others of its species.

Which form of cell division results in an enlarged germ cell pool?.
kenny6666 [7]

Mitosis form of cell division marks in an enlarged germ cell pool, Mitosis is a procedure where a single cell splits into two identical daughter cells (cell division).

<h3>What is mitosis and meiosis?</h3>

There are two kinds of cell division: mitosis and meiosis. Most of the time when people refer to “cell division,” they mean mitosis, the procedure of making new body cells.

Meiosis is the kind of cell division that creates egg and sperm cells. Mitosis is a actual procedure for life.

Thus, Mitosis form of cell division marks in an enlarged germ cell pool, Mitosis is a procedure where a single cell divides into two same daughter cells.
