Answer: Natural selection is one of the forces of evolution and the enviroment where the species lives is the selection agent. For example, suppose a mosquitoes population in a environment free from insecticides, in this environment there's a high frequency of non-resistant mosquitoes because the environment is not  exerting any pressure on the resistence trait. But when the environment changes and we use a insecticide upon the mosquitoes population, the populations changes because the non-resistant ones die but those resistant survive and beggin to reproduce more effectively. That's natural selection, differences in survival and reproduction between individuals with different phenotypes (traits) and this differences depend of environmental changes.

Choose the structures that most directly provide nutrients and remove wastes from osteocytes in compact bone.
Ber [7]
I had to look for the missing options of this question and here is my answer:

Osteocyte is the term that describes the cells of the bone. These cells are formed in the mesenchyme. Once the bone matures, the processes then take place inside the Lacunae and the Canaliculi, respectively. Therefore, we can say that the structure that allows the provision of nutrients and removal of wastes from osteocytes would be the canaliculi.

Which best describes mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)?
kifflom [539]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is C) Mitochondrial DNA can be traced for generations.</em>

Explanation:

The mitochondria are the organelles of the animal cell which contain their own genome. This genome also has the ability to produce proteins. The mitochondrial DNA passes from the mother to the children and remains identical. We can say that the mother and the children will possess the same mitochondrial DNA. In this manner, the mitochondrial DNA can be traced for generations as it remains the same for generations.
