How do environmental factors influence genetic traits?

Genes, via their influences on morphology and physiology, create a framework within which the environment acts to shape the behavior of an individual animal. The environment can affect morphological and physiological development; in turn behavior develops as a result of that animal's shape and internal workings.

Answer:

Explanation:

Environmental factors determine all genetic traits. Why? So the organism that is gaining the trait has a better chance of survival or to be more specific a better chance at adapting to their environment. Let me give you an example, the long necks on a giraffe. The diet of a giraffe consist of mostly acacia leaves which are leaves that are on the top of a tree. This environmental factor is why giraffes have long neck so they can get to the leaves of the tree. If they did not have long necks giraffes probably would´nt survive

Now let me give you an example that is related to evolution

Evolution is the change in the characteristics of a species over several generations

An example of this happening can be shown in mosquitoes

People were using DDT (which is an insecticide used to kill bugs) on mosquitoes to harm them. Many of the mosquitoes had died but the remaining were able to produce offspring that had mutations. These mutations caused the mosquitoes to be resistant to the insecticide. This shows another example of environmental factors having an influence on genetic traits. The DDT spray was the environmental factor and the mosquito being able to produce offspring that were resistant the the insecticide is the outcome from the influence.

Where is long-wavelength radiation created?

Ivahew [28]

On the earth surface

Explanation:

The long-wavelength radiation is created on the earth surface when electromagnetic radiation is re-emitted.

The sun releases radiation in form of short-wave.
They are usually more energetic and with short wavelength and a high frequency.
When they interact with materials on the earth, they are radiated back as long-wavelength radiation that usually causes heat.
Ultraviolet rays and other high energy waves are emitted from the sun because it is a very hot body.
When these radiations enters the earth, they are re-radiated back as long waves with lower energy.
Earth is cooler than the sun
When some of the short waves for example, the ultraviolet rays gets to the surface, it is absorbed and re-radiated back.
When the short waves are absorbed, they lose some of their their energy to the earth surface.
The remainder is radiated back as less energetic long waves.
The hotter a body is, the more energetic the radiation it releases.
