Consider a flower population that produces different sizes of blooms and depends on bees for reproduction. Large blooms attract

larger bees; small blooms attract smaller bees. Describe how changes in the bee population might lead to disruptive, stabilizing, and directional selection in the flowers.

The parallel evolution of flowering plants and pollinators represents a case of coevolution. It may lead to different types of natural selection.

<h3>Disruptive, stabilizing, and directional selection</h3>

Disruptive selection is a type of natural selection that favors extreme phenotypes (in this case, flowers too small or too big).

Stabilizing selection is a type of selection that leads to decreased genetic variation  (in this case, all red flowers to attract pollinators)

Finally, directional selection is a type of natural selection where an extreme phenotype can be favored (in this case, taller plants to be noted by bees).

Minerals may be defined as the combination of two or more elements of a substance.

<u>Five criteria that exhibits a particle to be minerals; </u>

  • They are natural and not man-made.
  • Inorganic i.e. not made by any organism.
  • Minerals are solids, not liquid or gas.
  • They have a definite chemical structure.
  • The atoms in minerals are arranged systematically and are arranged in a repeated pattern.

Minerals are natural and we use it in our day to day life. Products like salt and even a pencil have minerals. Also, these minerals help the parts in the human body to grow faster and function properly.
