The guppies evolved at a rate between 3700 and 45,000 Darwin's. For comparison, artificial-selection experiments on mice show rates of up to 200,000 Darwin's while most rates measured in the fossil record are only 0.1 to 1.0 Darwin.
Guppies introduced to a low-predation environment adapted to their new environment by producing larger and fewer offspring with each reproductive cycle. No such adaptation was seen in guppies that colonized a high-predation
With each generation, more guppies passed on the gene for small spots to their offspring. The rocks became smaller. More guppies with small spots survived long enough to pass on the gene for small spots to their offspring the rocks became smaller.

The right answer is <span>A) semi-permeable membrane
<span>A semi-permeable membrane is a membrane permeable to a liquid (solvent) and impermeable (or poorly permeable) to substances dissolved in the liquid (solute).
</span>The tubule of a kidney consists of a semi-permeable membrane and has also specific transporters which allow absorption and reabsorption. These "tools" allows some substances like ions to be absorbed/reabsorbed (by the transporters), without any changes in the concentration of the other substances (because both the membrane and the transporters stopped them).</span>
Answer:
The correct option is <u>C. The nervous system when the brain regulates the body's breathing and heart rate.</u>
Explanation:
The main function of the respiratory system is to exchange oxygen for carbon dioxide in the body.
The brain controls the rate at which the heart pumps blood. The pumping of the heart supplies oxygenated blood to other parts of the body. Hence, the rate at which heart pumps blood is very important to maintain homeostasis of the respiratory system.
The brain regulates the rate at which a person breathes. This rate is very important to breathe in the right amount of oxygen and to breathe out the right amount of carbon dioxide.
