Natural selection act directly upon <u>Alleles</u>
Explanation:
Genes, such as that of fur color, have many variants called alleles. Natural selection act on the alleles and chooses the best fit for an environment and eliminates the disadvantageous ones from the population over generations. Mutations are a rare occurrence that increases the number of allelic variants of a genes on which natural selection can act upon.
Answer:
Lithospheric
Explanation:
Lithospheric plates are part of a planetary scale thermal convection system. The energy source for plate tectonics is Earth's internal heat while the forces moving the plates are the “ridge push” and “slab pull” gravity forces
Answer:
Hydrophillic head and a hydrophobic tail
Explanation:
Every fatty acid is composed of long chain of hydrocarbon tail. This hydrocarbon tail is nonpolar and insoluble in water. Hence this tail is labeled 'hydrophobic'.
However, the head of the fatty acid contains polar COOH group which is capable of interacting with water, hence the head is hydrophillic.
Hence, a fatty acid is composed of a hydrophillic head and a hydrophobic tail.
Answer:
Biodiversity
Explanation:
Biodiversity or also called biological diversity is the variation among life on Earth. It encompasses all life form on Earth including plants, animal, microbes etc.
According to the question, bodiversity is the ultimate source of renewable energy on Earth. It is renewable because life has the ability to reproduce, and the greater the reproduction, the higher the probability tibd
