Does anyone know about "Van der Waals forces" I know it's "intermolecular forces of attraction" And they hold molecules together

, especially large ones and it's not as strong of a bond as covalent and ionic bonds. I need an example of an animal that uses it other than a Gecko.

The feet of spiders use Van der Walls forces. Spiders seem to be able to stick to just about anything, even if it is wet. This is largely due to the intermolecular forces of attraction between its feet and the surface.

Identify which type of natural selection is described in each case below.
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Results in the evolution of the species: Directional selection

Results in new species: Disruptive selection

Favors traits at the two extremes: Disruptive selection

No increase in diversity: Directional selection

One extreme trait is favored: Directional selection

Diversity decreases: Stabilizing selection

Diversity increases: Disruptive selection

Explanation:

Directional selection which is also known as positive selection is known to be a mode of natural selection. In this type of selection, an extreme phenotype is favored over other phenotypes. This makes the allele frequency to move in the direction of that phenotype and this takes place over time.

Disruptive selection (known to be diversifying selection) talks about the certain changes in the population genetics whereby extreme values of a particular trait are favored over intermediate values. This results in new species.

While Stabilizing selection is a natural selection whereby there is a stabilization of the population mean on the particular value of a non-extreme trait. Here the diversity is decreases.
