Can someone give a explanation on what is Natural Selection? 15 POINTS AWARDED!​

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Natural selection is the process by which species adapt to their environment. Natural selection leads to evolutionary change when individuals with certain characteristics have a greater survival or reproductive rate than other individuals in a population and pass on these inheritable genetic characteristics to their offspring. Simply put, natural selection is a consistent difference in survival and reproduction between different genotypes, or even different genes, in what we could call reproductive success. [A genotype is a group of organisms sharing a specific genetic makeup.]

A model of pluripotent vs differentiated cellular gene expression is shown. Pluipotency is found in stem cells that have the ability to become multiple types of cells. Differentiation is the process where a cell becomes specialized and cannot return to its pluripotent state. What explanation best supports the model of pluripotency and differentiation shown above?A) Differentiated cells have different DNA sequences that pluripotent cells and can produce different protein products.
Eliminate
B) Differentiated cells have fewer gene sequences that pluripotent cells and can only produce limited numbers of proteins.
C) Pluripotent cells recruit molecules from nearby cells to increase gene expression while differentiated cells use only internal transcription factors.
D) Differentiated cells and pluripotent cells have different types of activator or repressor proteins present that positively and negatively regulate gene expression in the cell.

The broad, slightly dome-shaped volcanoes of Hawaii are ____.1.cinder cone volcanoes

2.composite cone volcanoes

3.shield volcanoes

4.pyroclastic volcanoes

Answers

Answer:

Shield volcanoes.

Explanation:

Hawaiian volcanoes are the types of vulcanos known as shield vulcanos. Their shape is slightly dome, it is like an inverted shield. They are located in a big area and they don’t have explosive eruptions. This type of vulcanos is created when magma enters the fracture of the stone. One of the most famous volcanos of this type is Mauna Loa in Hawaii.
