Biology
1 answer:
JulijaS [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Genetic drift does not require the presence of variation.

Explanation:

Genetic drift is the random changes to the frequency of an allele in a given population.

Natural selection is the process whereby organisms that are well adapted to the conditions in an environment can survive and produce more offspring.

  • Genetic drift does not require variation to occur.
  • It usually occurs even when there is less to no variation.
  • Natural selection occurs when variation is very large.
  • A highly varied gene pool causes natural selection.

How do some producers and consumers each rely on light from the sun?
Nutka1998 [239]

Producers rely on light because that is what they use to "produce" food. Consumers, however, also rely on light, because first of all they need to see, and second of all, the light fuels growth of producers, which in turn, when consumers eat the producers, promote growth of other consumers.
