Populations of organisms that exhibit a high degree of variation have a greater chance for survival than populations of organisms that show little variation is described below.
Explanation:
- Allele frequencies in a population may change due to four fundamental forces of evolution: Natural Selection, Genetic Drift, Mutations and Gene Flow. Mutations are the ultimate source of new alleles in a gene pool. Two of the most relevant mechanisms of evolutionary change are: Natural Selection and Genetic Drift.
- The genetic variation in the population is increasing due to selective pressure. The genetic variation in the population is decreasing due to selective pressure. The genetic variation in the population is increasing due to gene flow. The genetic variation in the population is decreasing due to gene flow.
- Genetic drift is a random change in allele frequencies. These random changes in allele frequency can accumulate over time. ... Small samples can vary more markedly from the larger sets from which they are selected than larger samples, so genetic drift is more powerful in smaller populations
- Natural selection can cause microevolution (change in allele frequencies), with fitness-increasing alleles becoming more common in the population.
Fitness is a measure of reproductive success (how many offspring an organism leaves in the next generation, relative to others in the group).
Answer:
Explanation:
Humans are 99% identical and what makes each one of us nunique is like 0.1% of our genome and the human genome is up of three billion base pairs which mean 0.1% is still equal to three million base pairs. In those three million differences lies the changes that gives you the green eyes instead of blue eyes etc.
Answer:
<u>In the mitochondrial matrix</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
The mitochondria is an organelle within the cytoplasm of the cell. It consists of an outer membrane, inner membrane, and matrix containing a gel-like substance. During aerobic respiration in mitochondria, cells break down sugars in the form of glucose into 
(carbon dioxide) and 
(water) to obtain energy in the form of ATP or adenosine triphosphate.
aerobic respiration:
C6H12O6+ 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≅38 ATP
(glucose) (oxygen) (carbon dioxide) + (water)
The Kreb's cycle involves several enzymatic reactions, where pyruvate derivatives obtained from glycolysis, are reduced and oxidized to harvest energy as ATP.
