Answer:

B. differential reproductive success caused by genetic variation is necessary for the process of natural selection.

Explanation:

Natural selection is the process wherein individuals with adaptive genetic variations are favored. Genetic variations are present among the individuals of a population. Individuals with adaptive genetic variations survive more and reproduce to leave more progeny. Their progeny also carries the selected adaptive genetic variations.

Over the generations, the population evolves into a population with more number of individuals carrying those beneficial genetic variations.

Since natural selection favors the individuals with the genetic traits that make them better adapted to prevailing surroundings, it leads to the evolution of populations.

monitta
The best approach for Tyler is a controlled experiment if he wants to directly observe the outcome. 

A controlled experiment is designed to minimize the effects of the variables other than the independent variable. A controlled experiment allows reliable results because he can do the experiment specific to the problem and variables involved.

Q1.2. Suppose you decide to design an experiment
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is :

Independent variable: study music.

Dependent  variable: test performance.

Explanation:

Independent variable in a experiment is a variable or a factor that is manipulated or changed in a particular experiment to see its the effect on dependent variable of this change. In this case classical music is variable as it is manipulated to see if it has any effect on studying.

Dependent variable is a variable which is measured in experiment to find the result and affected by the independent variable. In this case testing the performance of subject is dependent variable as it is being measured and affected by classical music.

Thus, the correct answer is: Independent variable: study music.

Dependent  variable: test performance.

(Q002) Review the vertebral column and individual vertebrae from Exercise 3 (p. 166 of your lab manual). What similarities and d
Alexandra [31]

Answer and Explanation:

1. The biggest similarity between the main types of vertebrae is the location where they are found since they are all established on the body's back, precisely on the midline of the back. The main differences, on the other hand, are related to the size and weight of each of them.

2. The similarities exist because all the vertebrae have to promote the support of the body, the back being the most appropriate place for them to establish themselves.

3. The differences are related to the function and type of support that each vertebrae promotes, the higher the level of systemization, the larger and thicker the vertebrae must be.

4. The caudal vertebrae should be similar to the vertebrae of the coccix, since a tail would be a representation of elongation of the coccix. We can reach this conclusion through the analysis of images that promote the visualization of this area of the body.
