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:

A

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.

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

What does a scientist observe in a chemical's reaction rate? the speed at which the reactants change to products over a given ti
kvasek [131]

Answer:

The speed at which the reactants change to products over a given time.

Explanation:

A chemical's <u>reaction rate</u><u> is the change in the concentration of a reactant or a product with time (in moles per second)</u>.

Remember that during a chemical reaction, reactants are converted to products. Or what is the same, products are formed at the expense of reactants. This can be represented:

reactants → products

Therefore,<u> the progress of a reaction can be followed measuring the decrease in concentration of the reactants or the increase in concentration of the products.</u>

According to the temperature and other parameters, the reaction rate can increase or decrease.
