1. Non random mating
                                    In genetic equilibrium individuals must mate at random. However, in many species, individuals select mates based on heritable traits, such as size, strength, or coloration, a practice known as sexual selection.

2. Small population size
                                        Genetic drift does not have major effects on large populations but can affect small populations. Thus evolutionary change due to genetic drift happens more easily in small populations.

<span>3. Immigration or Emigration
                                                 Individuals who join a populations may introduce new alleles into the gene pool. Likewise individuals who leave may remove alleles from the gene pool. Any movement of individuals into (immigration) or out of (emigration) a population can disrupt genetic equilibrium, a process know as gene flow.

4. Mutations
                   Individuals who join a populations may introduce new alleles into the gene pool. Likewise individuals who leave may remove alleles from the gene pool. Any movement of individuals into (immigration) or out of (emigration) a population can disrupt genetic equilibrium, a process know as gene flow.

5. Natural Selection
 if different genotypes have different fitness, genetic equilibrium will be disrupted, and evolution will occur.</span>

Answer:

You can use either your answer or the sample answer you gave. You are so nice by the way!

Explanation:

THE FOLLOWING ARE TWO ANSWERS YOU CAN CHOOSE FROM

ANSWER 1:

The red crystals are compounds. This is because when the sample is heated, a GAS (element) is released and BLUE POWDER (element) is left. Two elements make up these red crystals. A compound can also be shown through color change - the RED crystals, when heated, turn into BLUE powder. Elements cannot be broken down into substances using physical force, like heating. So yes, this is a compound.

ANSWER 2:

The red crystals are compounds. This is because when the sample is heated, a GAS (element) is released and BLUE POWDER (element) is left. Two elements make up these red crystals. A compound can also be shown through color change - the RED crystals, when heated, turn into BLUE powder. Elements cannot be broken down into substances using physical force, like heating. So yes, this is a compound.

EITHER ONE YOU CHOOSE WILL BE CORRECT, JUST SAYING!

Which level on the energy pyramid has the third most energy?
ELEN [110]
Primary producers! They get their energy directly from the sun through photosynthesis. All consumers lose some energy from the previous level through indigestible parts, such as plant root (or later bones)
