Answer:

The correct answer is "A fish population in which the average skin brightness decreases over several generations in the presence of predators"

Explanation:

In biology, an adaptation is defined as an evolutionary response at which a group of organism develop new traits or behaviors as result of new environmental conditions. In this case, a fish population which skin brightness decreases over several generations in the presence of predators is an example of an adaptation. The fish decreasing its bright skin is the new trait developed as a result of the presence of predators, and as stated, adaptation occurs over several generations not within one generation.

The evolution of populations due to chance is
Nataly [62]

Answer:

D). genetic drift

Explanation:

Genetic drift is the change in an allele frequency over a period of time. This event has to be random and a chance event.

For example: In a population of a flowering plant there are two types of flowers, blue and yellow. Due to a fire many yellow flowers are destroyed by chance. Now the resultant population will have more blue flowers and when they reproduce the population will eventually evolve to have more blue flowers. Effect of genetic variation is more pronounced in a small population since its easy to disturb the allele frequency.

■Here,The corn syrup is hypertonic to the carrot, so will take water from the adjoining cells, causing those cells to shrink, become hypertonic to their neighboring cells and to take water from them.

■Conversely the water is hypotonic, and will enter the cells in the outer of the carrot.

■Because of this water will pass from the outside of the carrot to the inside, and cause liquid in the tube to rise

Ronch [10]

Answer;

-A motor protein called dynein

Cilia and flagella bend because of a motor protein called dynein.

Explanation;

-Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells contain structures known as cilia and flagella. These extensions from the cell surface aid in cell movement. They also help to move substances around cells and direct the flow of substances along tracts.

-Cilia and flagella are formed from specialized groupings of microtubules called basal bodies. If the protrusions are short and numerous they are termed cilia. If they are longer and less numerous they are termed flagella.
