The correct answer is: Individuals that produce chemical compounds are better protected from herbivores and are able to produce more young than individuals that do not produce the compounds.
Natural selection acts on variations-differences in phenotype that exist among individuals. If a certain trait contribute more to survival and reproduction (individuals with that variant survive more than individuals with other variant), natural selection will favor that trait. In this case, production of chemical compounds is favored over non-producing trait.
Answer:
Multicellular organisms depend on mitosis for growth and repair. When an animal, plant or other multicellular organism grows, it makes more cells through mitosis. Organisms can repair some of their tissues, using mitosis to regenerate new cells.
Explanation:
Answer:
An organism which has two different alleles of the gene is called heterozygous. Phenotypes (the expressed characteristics) associated with a certain allele can sometimes be dominant or recessive, but often they are neither.
Endogenous processes - Under surface of the earth.
Exogenous processes - Above the surface of the earth.
Lithosphere - Is broken into tectonic plates.
Plates - made of thick slabs of rock, compose the crust/ocean crust .
7 major plates - Pacific, North America, South America, Eurasian, Antarctic, indo-Australian
