A plant species lives in an area with limited sunlight. Which physiological adaptation would be most useful to the plant?

The bottleneck effect occurs when a population's size is reduced for at least one generation. This will result in a very reduced genetic variation, which can lead to further adaptation problems.

The Founder effect has its similarities (in terms of the resulting reduced genetic pool) with the bottleneck effect, BUT it occurs when a new colony is started by a few members of the original population.

The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is a principle in population genetics that states that the genetic variation in a population will remain constant from one generation to the next IF certain conditions are present (no migration, aleatory mating, among others), so this is not the answer.

Genetic drift (refers to the change in the frequency of an existing gene variant in a population due to random sampling of organisms, so it is not the answer.

Main features of Solar System, Main facts of solar system

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

The main features of the solar system:

The Sun is our nearest star.

The planets orbit the Sun.

The time taken to orbit the Sun increases with distance from the Sun.

Gravity keeps the planets in orbit around the Sun and the moons in orbit around their planets.

From the Sun, the order of the planets is Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. You might need to be able to recall this in the exam.

The planets go around the Sun in slightly squashed circular elliptical orbits.

Pluto is classified as a dwarf planet or planetoid. It has a highly elliptical or eccentric orbit.

Main facts

The definition of a planet and a moon is fuzzy. ...

Comets and asteroids are leftovers. ...

The planets are all on the same “plane” and orbit in the same direction. ...

We're nowhere near the center of the galaxy. ...

But the Solar System is bigger than you think. ...

The Sun is hugely massive. ...
