Answer: Adaptation
species adapt to their environment
Answer:
Descent with modification
Explanation:
We define evolution as descent with modification from a common ancestor.
Evolution only occurs when there is a change in gene frequency within a population over time. These genetic differences are hereditary and can be passed on to the next generation - which is what really matters in evolution: long-term change. In this process, the new generations are better suited to their environment than the first generation because of descent with genetic modification.
Answer:
b. to amplify the signal
Explanation:
A multi-enzyme phosphorylation cascade is a series of signaling events where one enzyme phosphorylates to another, then this last enzyme acts to phosphorylate another protein and so successively, thereby triggering a chain reaction that leads to the phosphorylation of hundreds or even thousands of proteins. A multi-enzyme phosphorylation cascade is known to increase the number of activated (phosphorylated) proteins at each step of the signaling cascade. Phosphorylation is a posttranslational modification capable of activating proteins during long periods, thereby a phosphorylation cascade also enables the activation of multiple proteins before these proteins become inactive again.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Without crossing over, each chromosome would be either maternal or paternal, greatly reducing the number of possible genetic combinations, which would greatly reduce the amount of genetic variation between related individuals and within a species.
There are several ways selection can affect population variation:
stabilizing selection
directional selection
diversifying selection
frequency-dependent selection
sexual selection
As natural selection influences the allele frequencies in a population, individuals can either become more or less genetically similar and the phenotypes displayed can become more similar or more disparate. In the end, natural selection cannot produce perfect organisms from scratch, it can only generate populations that are better adapted to survive and successfully reproduce in their environments through the aforementioned selections.
