Answer:
A :an atom seeks to fill its outer shell of electrons
Explanation:
Reactions between atoms occur due the desire of an atom to fill their outer shell electrons.
The driving force for many interatomic bonding is the tendency to have completely filled outer energy levels like those of the noble gases.
- The various interatomic interaction which leads to chemical reaction is in a bid for the atoms to be isoelectronic in the outer energy level with the noble gases.
- This is achieved by gaining, losing or sharing of electrons.
An organism adapting to its environment leads it to be more ‘equipped’ for survival.
Competition is when other species fight for the same resources that another species needs. Also, it would produce offspring with these adaptations.
An example (to help you better understand);
A blue jay has great eyesight, strong wings, and sharp beak. (Better adapted organism) Another blue jay has great eyesight, weak wings, and dull beak. (The competitor/unadapted)
Both birds find the same food source and are now competing for it. The first bird has sharp beams, which is better for breaking, and ‘chomping’ the seeds/food. The second bird would struggle to consume its food (seed) unless it’s worms.
So which one is better adapted? The first blue jay.
And i hope this helped show how competition can be reduced.
Answer:
According to the theory of evolution by natural selection wolves with mutations will outgrow the wolves without mutation.
Explanation:
Nature always poses challenges to the living organisms in various forms like climate change, food scarcity, natural disasters, etc. If an organism has a characteristic to survive better than the other, then they will be selected by the nature. We can also use the term fitness for this. Darwin also referred about this as reproductive fitness which means only those organisms which are fit in their environment produce more progeny and increase in number. s we can see that the introduction of mutation has added the advantage of being faster and stronger, so when it comes to competition for food the wolves with mutation can easily catch the predator than wolves without mutation. Since mutation has resulted in better adaptation to their environment they will outgrow in number.
A cell membrane protects a cell from it's surroundings. The cell membrane controls the movement of substances from the outside and inside of cells and organelles.
For him they were just discrete physical units of inheritance. Johanson coined the term "gene" and people started calling them genes. Today for us these factors are parts of DNA, the base sequences that carry the biological information to determine a trait. Mendel factors are alleles of genes.
