Which of the following statements about natural selection is true? A. Natural selection favors individuals that reproduce more than others. B. Natural selection occurs in opposition to evolution. C. Natural selection can be used by farmers to generate organisms with desirable traits.
Answer:
4cm because the wavelength is the measure of a distance between two identical peaks or Crest
<h2>B) option is correct </h2>
Explanation:
Natural selection is a selection pressure which operates in a population and allow the best fitted genotype to survive in changing environmental conditions and eliminate the other genotype which are not fit
In artificial selection, breeders select superior breed for the breeding purpose so that this type of selection favors the superior genotype and eliminates inferior genotype, thus leading to genetic drift
Stabilizing selection is a type of natural selection in which intermediate genotype is favored but extreme genotypes (inferior and superior) are eliminated
In the given example of pigmentation in pigeons, breeding is selectively done with intermediate pigmentation hence intermediate genotypes will be favored
Answer:
The correct answer is keystone predator.
Explanation:
In sustaining the composition of an ecological community, a keystone species plays an essential function. In the absence of keystone species, the ecosystem would fail to exist and would become drastically different. A predator is a classic illustration of a predator, which inhibits a specific herbivorous species from eradicating the dominant species of plants. In the non-existence of predators, the herbivorous prey would increase enormously and would clean the entire essential plant species, and thus, drastically change the significance of the ecosystem.
