Which best describes the concept of natural selection?

Biology
1 answer:
Reika [66]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Natural selection is the way that organisms adapt through adaptations to better survive and pass on the special genes which enable the offspring to survive. Saying an organism will always mutate to survive is wrong, as natural selection implies that not all organisms survive. With natural selection, nothing is "selected", so B and C are not correct. However, mutations DO make organisms "more fit" to survive their environments, so D is the answer.

According to the principle of faunal succession, what must be true of the fossils on a layer below?
sesenic [268]
The answer to this is older, but it's not a proven fact even though schools teach it as if it were. It is still just a theory if you think about it with how much the earth moves, areas of rock could be complete upside down and no one would know, it would be like history in reverse.

Which of the following is NOT a method of hormone action? a) control of ion or molecule transport across cell membranes b) contr
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

e) all of the above are methods of hormone action

Explanation:

Hormones are the chemicals that are secreted by endocrine glands mostly. They serve to regulate physiological processes. Most of the lipid-soluble hormones such as steroid hormones enter the target cell to bind to their cytosolic or nuclear receptors and alter the expression of genes. These hormones stimulate the expression of some genes and inhibit that of others.

Binding of hormones to the cell surface receptors associated with ion channels regulates their opening and closing and thereby affects the membrane permeability. Likewise, the active hormone receptor complexes regulate the electrical signaling pathways of muscles and neurons.
