What is the difference between natural selection and artificial selection?

1 answer:

8 0

Natural selection is a process of adaptation by an organism to the changing environment by bringing selective changes to its genotype or genetic composition.

Artificial selection, also called selective breeding, is the process where humans identify desirable traits in animals and plants and use these traits to develop desirable phenotypic traits by breeding.

Some examples of natural selection include the selection of long-necked giraffes and the changes in the size and shape of beaks of birds according to their feeding habits.

Some examples of artificial selection include dog breeding to produce new breeds of dogs and cross-breeding in cash crops like wheat and rice.

Mammals store Extra glucose in the form of a compound called glycogen. What molecule supplies the energy needed to join glucose

bekas [8.4K]

ATP is the molecule that supplies the energy needed to join glucose molecules together to form a molecule of glycogen.

Explanation:

ATP is the energy currency of cells. It is used to power all non-spontaneous biochemical reactions in the body including the conversion of glucose to glycogen.

Glycogen has a higher Gibbs free energy than glucose (because it lowers entropy) meaning you need energy to convert glucose to glycogen. This reaction does not occur spontaneously because of it akin to ‘climbing a hill’. ATP is involved in the condensation reaction of joining glucose molecules together into glycogen via glycosidic bonds.
