Which things need to be present for natural selection to take place? (select all that apply)

Biology
1 answer:
Sati [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A & C

Explanation:

Four conditions are needed for natural selection to occur: reproduction, heredity, variation in fitness or organisms, variation in individual characters among members of the population. If they are met, natural selection automatically results.

YES - A) You must have variation in the population, typically in the terms of "fitness" or having admirable/sucessful traits that make them more likely to reproduce and ensure their own offspring are fit too.

NO - B) It is sexual (not asexual) reproduction that uses natural selection for their offspring. Although some asexual organisms use natural selection, it is ALWAYS used if possible with natural selection to ensure the fitness of characteristics is passed down.

YES - C) Competition is necessary for natural selection to occur. When those who are more physically fit compete, they are more likely to live against their opponent and therefore pass on the trait of fitness.

NO - D) Although resources are necessary, large amounts are not as it does not lead to fighting over them (scarcity) bringing us back to the need for competition above.

Hope this helped!

What factor has the greatest effect on species diversity
umka2103 [35]
I believe the correct answer is natural selection.

Natural competition and the fight for “survival of the fittest” is what pushes diversity the most.

In the atom, which particles are in constant motion around the nucleus?
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Electrons

Explanation:

According to the modern atomic theory, atoms are made-up of smaller subatomic particles in the nucleus. The nucleus contains two types of subatomic particles, protons and neutrons. The protons have a positively electrical charge and the neutrons have no charge. The electrons have a negative electrical charge and are able to move around the nucleus. An atom usually contains an equal number of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons. This makes the atom itself electrically neutral. The electrons exist at different energy levels, called shells, around the nucleus where they revolve freely in a constant motion.
