Answer:

Phosphorus moves through both the abiotic and biotic factors through the phosphorus cycle. The accumulation of phosphorus takes place in the rocks and sediments, which are abiotic. Phosphorus in the form of phosphate may be mediated via wind and water, which both are also abiotic.

Phosphorus gets absorbed by the plants, which are living and these plants further may get eaten up by other living species or may get die or decompose by the action of decomposers, which are also living. The phosphorus cycle comprises both abiotic and biotic elements that associate with phosphorus in its different forms, captivating it, storing it, and so on.

Phosphorus is a basic supplement for plants and creatures as particles PO43-and HPO42-. It is a piece of DNA-particles, of atoms that store vitality (ATP and ADP) and of fats of cell films. Phosphorus is likewise a building piece of specific parts of the human and creature body, for example, the bones and teeth.

Supplements travel through the biological system in biogeochemical cycles. A biogeochemical cycle is a circuit/pathway by which a concoction component travels through the biotic and the abiotic elements of a biological community. It is comprehensive of the biotic factors, or living beings, rocks, air, water, and chemicals.

The gene that causes sickle-cell disease is present in a higher percentage of residents of sub-Saharan Africa than among those o

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Ans.

Sickle-cell disorder shows defected red blood cells, due to mutation in gene that code for hemoglobin. The mutated genes for sickle-cell disease are found in higher percentage of sub-Saharan African population as it provides protection against malaria as compared to population of United States.

Malaria is common in sub-Saharan Africa region and there, natural selection favored gene for sickle cells, because it might be beneficial to people having sickle cell disease that makes them able to survive in such condition and transmit their genes to offspring.

On the other hand, in those Africans, who moved to United States, where malaria is uncommon or absent, natural selection favored normal, wild type genes, resulting in fewer people with defected sickle cell.

Thus, the evolutionary process behind this is 'natural selection.'
