Such traits listed may help them reproduce. For example, female peacocks tend to breed with males with certain types of tail feathers. While the feather themselves don’t guarantee survival, they certainly increase the chances of their genes being passed down. This can also be seen in humans. Certain characteristics in humans can be considered attractive. While these traits don’t necessarily increase the chances of survival, they do increase the chances of finding a mate and eventually having kids. This results in the dominant traits getting passed down.

DNA is made up of monomers called nucleotides. How many does mono- represent?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

It is often said that life is “carbon-based.” This means that carbon atoms, bonded to other carbon atoms or other elements, form the fundamental components of many, if not most, of the molecules found uniquely in living things. Other elements play important roles in biological molecules, but carbon certainly qualifies as the “foundation” element for molecules in living things. It is the bonding properties of carbon atoms that are responsible for its important role.
