3 0

Answer:

Fossil fuels create many harmful gases that contribute to global climate change in the form of global warming.

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are primarily used for vehicles as fuel, and is converted into power for the vehicles through a method called combustion. This method burns the fuel. The burned fuel releases many different harmful gases, primarily Carbon-Dioxide, which is a greenhouse gas. Greenhouse Gases keep heat trapped in the troposphere, preventing it from dispersing into space. This heats up the earth as more and more heat becomes trapped.

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.
