Answer:

Natural selection.

Explanation:

Imagine in the beginning there was a single species of bird. Naturally, this bird had to expand to the rest of the world, and was distanced as the continents drifted off. But this bird had to cope with various climates and environments. So the bird would gradually mutate over time. The bird in the jungles of central america would develop different colors and a shaped beak, and would better help it survive. This led to being the new normal for birds of this area. It would evolve to cover all the surviving birds in the region, until it is so drastically changed then it is a new species. There are so many different environments, each with its own challenges to overcome, so so many different bird evolve to survive them.

When you eat salmon for dinner, your digestive system will break down that food

zimovet [89]

Answer: c. Amino Acids

Explanation:

Food is chemically and mechanically broken down into smaller particles like building blocks, the smallest of these are a basic unit called monomers. In the <em>stomach</em>, the enzyme pepsin breaks proteins, like those found in salmon, into smaller peptides by splitting the peptide bonds holding the proteins together. The <em>duodenum</em> processes these newly-formed peptide chains or polypeptides, into smaller ones, through the enzyme action of elastase, trypsin and chymotrypsin; these are produced in the pancreas. Peptidases convert these fragments into amino acid monomers for absorption into the bloodstream via the small intestines.

What type of organisms was most likely feeding on this sample ?

jek_recluse [69]

I think Number C is right because Since the organism eukaryotic we can safely assume that it is neither an archaea nor a bacteria since they are both prokaryotes. Secondly, since it can not photosynthesize, it can't be a plant because all plants can photosynthesize. The presence of a cell wall tells us that it can't be an animal cell since they lack cell walls. Therefore, the organism found is a fungus-like protist. Fungi are prokaryotic cells that are unable to photosynthesize and they have cell walls.
