Answer:

it accounts for significant changes in physical and genetic changes as species adapt over a large period of time in ever changing conditions

Explanation:

First developed by C. Darwin, the natural selection is the process by which he observed different kinds of  changes in traits of pidgeons and other species in the Galapagos islands. He inferred that these changes would occur as ambient constantly poses threats for life: the pidgeons need to assure they can have enough food for their offspring and the availabilty of prey is usually changes as different seasons provide. Some general conditions he established are necessary for natural selection to occur are: As more organisms are born than those who can survive. Organisms will always vary in their characteristics usually small changes within  species. The differences in reproduction and survival are due to variation between organisms.

Those the nature, what natural selection turns then  “the survival of the fittest” for short.

Sulfur is known as the essential nutrient for plant growth. Sulfur playing various important role in plants. About 90% of the sulfur is absorbed by the plants for the purpose of amino acids synthesis, known as the building blocks of proteins. Sulfur is important for the enzyme which is helping in the formation of the chlorophyll molecule. Sulfur is essential for the synthesis of oil crops.

In human body sulfur playing some essential role such as amino acid production which is converting into proteins and producing enzymes. Sulfur is important for insulin production, insulin allow the cells to use glucose as energy. Sulfur is found in most important antioxidant known as glutathione, which helping in the inhibition of oxidation of the other molecules and preventing from cell damage. Collagen provide skin strength and structure, sulfur is important for collagen synthesis as well.
