Yup!! After a long duration...... Mutations lead to evolution because if the mutation is favorable then it will survive and pass on its traits.
Answer:
C
Explanation: Proteases are the enzymes that break down proteins because of the shape it has (its Proteases but im bad at explaining xD sorry)
Hello, hope your having a good day :)
<em><u>How could genetic variation affect new adaptations?</u></em>
<em>Populations adapt to novel environments in two distinct ways: selection on pre-existing genetic variation and selection on new mutations. These alternative sources of beneficial alleles can result in different evolutionary dynamics and distinct genetic outcomes. Compared with new mutations, adaptation from standing genetic variation is likely to lead to faster evolution, the fixation of more alleles of small effect and the spread of more recessive alleles. </em>
<em>So you may be asking.... why? And how?</em>
<em>There is potential to distinguish between adaptation from standing variation and that from new mutations by differences in the genomic signature of selection. Here we review these approaches and possible examples of adaptation from standing variation in natural populations. Understanding how the source of genetic variation affects adaptation will be integral for predicting how populations will respond to changing environments.</em>
