Imagine a population of moths. White moths are easier for birds to see and eat. Black moths blend into their surroundings, so th

ey are less visible to birds than white moths. As a result, black moths are more likely to survive and reproduce, enabling the gene for black coloration to be passed on to the next generation. This increases the frequency of genes for black coloration in the population. Which evolutionary process does this scenario describe

Answer:

The correct answer is - natural selection.

Explanation:

Natural selection is a process of adapting according to the environmental change in order to survive and reproduce and increase their number. It is represented by Darwin for the first time. Natural selection leads to evolution.

In this case, White moths adapt according to the environment by increasing the population of black moths in order to blend with the surrounding and as the result, black moths are more likely to produce and survive and passed this trait to the next generation.

When writing an organism’s name using binomial nomenclature, what is the proper forum? (what is capitalized, what is lowercase,
weeeeeb [17]
The binomial name will include the genus and species in that order. Both are italicized with the first letter of the genus being capitalized and the species being all lower case. For example:
Emperor Penguin = Aptenodytes forsteri (can’t italicize on this app but the scientific name would be)

Did the Florida Panther become endangered because of natural selection, genetic drift, or gene flow?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

ALL OF THE ABOVE

Explanation:

Genetic Drift are the changes in allele frequency of a population that result from RANDOM survival or reproduction of individuals with certain characteristics.  Survival or reproduction of those individuals in the face of some environmental change is a matter of LUCK or CHANCE, not because of their phenotype or genotype.

While in Natural selection, the environmental events that affect a population are likely random, but the survival or reproduction of the individuals depends on their phenotypes and genotypes.

Meanwhile, Gene flow is the movement of genes into or out of a population. Low gen flow can lead to low genetic diversity.

Low population which can cause low genetic diversity, poor habitat conditions and habitat loss, road deaths, and commercial development in panther range are constant threats to the Florida Panther's survival.

All these causes are related and therefore affects the Florida Panther.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

<em>As scientists learned more about genetics and biochemistry , some organisms were moved out of existing kingdoms and into new ones.</em>

Explanation:

As the researches in the scientific world continued, scientists realized that there were, in fact, many genetic diversities present in organisms which were placed in the same groups. Hence, they realized that due to these differences these organisms should not be kept in the same group. As a result, the groups in the classification system increased.

Carolus Linnaeus just grouped organisms based on their features. But today, scientists classify organisms based on various perspectives such as the evolutionary history, genetic similarities etc.
