Yes, beetles can adapt to almost any environment. they are usually found where they eat, and some species help get rid of garbage, dead plants and even help pollenate flowers. however red beetles feed off of lily’s(i think?), so they feed off of those flowers and if you see them your lilies may be at risk.
Answer:
1. genetics
2. constant
3. genetic drift
4. Modern synthesis combines the ideas surrounding evolution and natural selection with those of genetics.
5. A genotype is the genetic makeup of an organism. It describes the DNA that underlies a trait. There are dominant and recessive alleles and heterozygous and homozygous genotypes. A phenotype is the physical manifestation of that genotype.
6. The most common type of mutation is a deleterious mutation. Natural selection acts to remove this allele from the population.
7. The most common type of observed mutation is a neutral mutation. This mutation doesn't impact natural selection in any noticeable way since it doesn't impact the fit of that organism. Since neutral mutations convey no advantage, they generally must spread in a population through drift. Many also will disappear through drift.
8. During sexual reproduction, each organism is provided a copy of chromosomes from each parent, and this allows for new combinations of DNA.
9. This isn't an example of genetic drift because there's a genetic component to the ability to withstand severe temperatures. Therefore, this is an example of natural selection, related to surviving extreme environmental conditions
