The statement which correctly describes natural selection is (1) it favors the survival of certain members of the species and results in a change in the proportion of individuals with highly <span>adaptive traits.
Natural selection, by definition talks about the successful passing down of genes from older generations to younger generations. These then are better adapted to their environment. This is exactly what the first answer is about. </span>
The right answer is They compare quantities for particular categories.
The bar graph is composed of horizontal bands. The categories are presented on the ordinate (Y axis - vertical). The length of each bar is measured by the values arranged on the abscissa (X axis - horizontal).
It draws attention to the comparison of values rather than a period followed by time (as in the case of the bar chart).
EPDs are computed using production data that registered seedstock members have provided to the breed organizations. Based on ancestral data, individual performance data, and progeny data as they become available, this information is entered into statistical matrices to generate the estimated Page 2 breeding values of animals.
