Answer:
A. maintenance of axons is not a cellular activity associated with microtubules.
Explanation:
Microtubules are hollow, bead-like, tiny tubular structure that helps cells maintain its shapes. Together with microfilaments and intermediate filaments, they form part of the cell's cytoskeleton. Microtubules also contributes to the cell movement or cytokinesis that includes muscle contractions in muscle cells. Microtubules also replicated chromosomes to opposite ends of a cell during cell division. Microtubules also contribute to the parts of the cell that help it move and are structural elements of cilia, centrioles and flagella. A bundle of microtubules makes up an axonemal structure of cilia and flagella.
3. any trait that confers even a small increase in the probability that its possessor will survive and reproduce will be strongly favored and will spread through the population.
Explanation:
- Natural selection is a nonrandom process by which biological traits become more or less common in a population as a function of the differential reproduction of their bearers of differences in the rate of survival.
- Natural selection can act on any heritable phenotypic trait and operate among any entities that reproduce, show inheritance of their characteristics from one generation to the next, and vary in fitness.
- Natural selection is the machine that drives evolution. It also explains adaptation.
