Natural selection is based on all of the following except a. genetic variation exists within populations. b. the best-adapted in
goldfiish [28.3K]

Individuals adapt to their environments and, thereby, evolve

Explanation:

Natural selection is the main process which advances evolution by aiding organisms to survive and produce more offspring through adapting more to their environment. Mutations, gene transfer, and genetic variations also drive evolution.

Both natural selection and evolution work on genetic behaviors in populations rather than individuals. Both natural selection and evolution are involved in generating changes over generations.  Examples of evolution is the disappearing of tail bone, decreased head size and for natural selection example is the long and short necked giraffe.

What is that the _______ system helps to defend the body by producing hormones, including thymosin, which helps t-cells to matur
inna [77]
The correct answer is the immune system, more specifically, the thymus gland. The thymus gland, while it produces hormones like thymosin, it is more closely related to the immune system rather than the endocrine system. This is because lymphocytes that go into the thymus gland mature into T lymphocytes that can either be a helper T cell or a cytotoxic T cell, depending on the stimulus.

In the space below write a logo advertising the importance of genetic diversity to a population
wlad13 [49]

A logo advertising the importance of genetic diversity would be "Varied progeny to mask nature's agony"

Explanation:

Genetic variation is an important aspect of maintaining a population. The valuable alleles of the gene which can resist diseases, pests and adaptation to the environment. In natural selection, we have seen only those organisms are likely to survive who produces more offspring, passed on useful traits to adapt to the environment. Those organisms will eventually evolve.

At the time of environmental change, the organism with a large population and adaptability will survive.

Burning wood in the rainforest releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. What is this said to cause?
DochEvi [55]
<h3>Answer: B. global warming</h3>

As more CO2 (carbon dioxide) is released into the atmosphere, it traps more heat energy from the sun, and slowly warms the average temperature of the earth. This is the simplified version of what global warming is. Carbon dioxide is considered a greenhouse gas.
