What did darwin believe was the primary cause of evolution?

Biology

→ Darwin believed that the need to adapt, in similar words, the changes occruing in the environment caused evolution.

The main cause of evolution, according to Darwin, was natural selection. Natural selection is a process in which a group of organisms with certain characteristics survive and thrive, in comparison to other organisms with different characteristics. This idea basically means that having some characteristics makes you suited for an environment.


And how would that ↑ explain Evolution?

Well, evolution is the change in species that occurs during time. But for you to change, there must be a cause for that change, which is none other than the need to survive, reproduce, etc.


→ As mentioned before, not all characteristics are enough to surive, and hopefully the image pasted below will help you.



Hope it helped,

1. What is the result of a rock undergoing physical weathering?
juin [17]

1. The answer is; soil.  When rock weathers, it disintegrates into small and smaller particles. When these fine rocks particles combine with organic matter from living organisms, they make soil. The mineral component of the soil is therefore similar to that of the parent rock from which it came from.



2. Chemical weathering involves the reaction of the rock mineral with ‘chemicals’ or other compounds. These may include reaction with organic acids or acidic rainwater.  Due to the chemical reaction, the rock chemical composition changes and the physical appearance may also look different.



3. The answer is limestone rocks. They are made of carbon-carbonate minerals. Carbon carbonate is easily dissolved by acids include slightly acidic rainwater/ precipitation.        

CO2 + H2O → H2CO3 (carbon dioxide + water → carbonic acid)

H2CO3 + CaCO3 → Ca(HCO3)2 (carbonic acid + calcium carbonate → calcium bicarbonate)




4. Weathering of rocks is slower in cold regions than dry regions. This is because cold places do not encourage chemical weathering. Chemical weathering requires higher temperatures to  increase the energies of the chemical atoms so that they react fast.

Plant hormonal regulation differs from animal hormonal regulation in that
Over [174]

Answer:

Plant hormonal regulation differs from animal hormonal regulation in that there are no dedicated hormone-producing organs in plants as there are in animals.

Explanation:

<em>Plant hormones control different functions in plants such as growth and development.</em> These hromones are signal molecules that affect gene expression and transcription levels. What diferentiates them from animals is that in plants there are no dedicated hormone producing organs. For example, that plants and insects produce their hormones differently.
