A. Directed by genes

Answer:

(a). directed by genes.

Explanation:

Natural selection can be defined as a process, by which organisms having favorable traits have more chance to survive and reproduce. Due to this, organisms with traits, which are adaptive for a given environment increase with each generation.

Organisms having favorable genes for a trait or behavior will have more chance to survive and pass these genes to next generations. Over time, natural selection will allow the organisms with favorable genes to adapt to their surrounding environment. Hence, for a behavior or trait to evolve under the influence of natural selection, the trait should be directed by genes.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).

When you eat a meal, food is digested and monomers like glucose are transported throughout your body. food is transformed and us
Alchen [17]
<span>Food molecules like lipids, proteins and polysaccharides are broken down enzymatically via digestion process, which occurs in our intestine cells (digestive system). Those large polymeric molecules are broken down into their monomer subunits—proteins into amino acids, polysaccharides into sugars, and fats into fatty acids and glycerol. Formed small organic molecules are now ready for the oxidation (a process that produces ATP and consumes O2) which occurs partly in the cytosol and in the mitochondrion. Oxidation processes include glycolysis and citric acid cycle which are differently required in different tissues. Nervous system (nerve cells) rely almost entirely on a constant supply of <span>glucose<span> from the bloodstream. In contrast, liver cells supply glucose to actively contracting muscle system which needs a lot of ATP energy.</span></span></span>

Greenhouse gases absorb radiation from the and re-radiate it back toward the
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Greenhouse gases absorb radiation from the EARTH and reradiate back toward the EARTHwhich help to maintain a normal temperature range in the Earth.

Explanation:

Greenhouse gases are gases that are capable to of absorbing infrared radiations that are emitted from the Earth's surface and reradiating back to the Earth which contributed to the greenhouse effects. Examples of greenhouse gases are carbondioxide, methane and water vapour. Others are ozones, flourinated gases, nitrous oxides e.t.c.

The green house gases has lead to climate changes in the Earth by trapping heat, the contribute to respiratory diseases by smog and air pollution. Greenhouse gases concentrations are high during warm seasons and low during cold seasons.
