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 enzyme action stops due to a build up of end product, this control is called..?
Papessa [141]
This control is called negative feedback. Mechanism of negative feedback. Each metabolic reaction or process is regulated by several enzymes. These enzymes control the rate of these reactions and thus are fundamental in maintaining homeostasis. In a negative-feedback pathways, the end product of  a pathway binds to the allosteric site of the first enzyme, closing its active site and blocking the rest of the reactions.
