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.

This reduction in starch content occurred because starch was changed into simple sugars

<h3>Explanation: </h3>

Starch is a polymeric carbohydrate consist of many glucose units linked by glycosidic bonds. The iodine test is used to test for the presence of starch. Starch will change color to an intense "blue-black" colour after the addition of aqueous solutions of the triiodide anion. To do it we can add Iodine-KI reagent to a solution or directly on a potato or other materials such as bread, crackers, or flour The reaction between amylose that present in lesser amounts and iodine is said to account for the intense color change seen.

An iodine test of a tomato plant leaf revealed that starch was present at 5:00 p.m. on a sunny afternoon in July. When a similar leaf from the same tomato plant was tested with iodine at 6:00 am the next morning, the test indicates that less starch was present in this leaf than in the leaf tested the day before. This reduction in starch content occurred because starch was

  • 1. changed directly into proteins
  • 2. transported out of the leaves through the guard cells
  • 3. transported downward toward the roots through tubes
  • 4. changed into simple sugars

juin [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Statistical Hypothesis".

Explanation:

Given the example, the breeder wants to find the relationship between the two variables which are the effects of bredding and the face length of the boxer breed. He/She is using the statistics of the face length from the years 1915 and 2015 so the type of hypothesis that should be used is "Statistical Hypothesis" which is used when the hypothesis can be verified statistically. I hope this answer helps.

This seems to be the best answer: C. The data does not take into account underground growth and the actual area of fungus spread may be larger, so the original conclusion of the experiment is not accurate.
