<h2>C) option is correct </h2>
Explanation:
Natural selection as proposed by Darwin is a selection pressure which operates in a population and allow the best fitted genotype to survive in changing environmental conditions and eliminate the other genotype which are not fit
Causes of natural selection include: Genetic drift, mutation(changes allelic frequency) and sexual selection
In the given example, condition necessary for natural selection to occur on the mouse population is traits that affect the survival of the mice vary among individual mice, in this condition superior genotype will get the opportunity to reproduce and inferior genotype does not get opportunity to reproduce thus their genotype in population does not increase rapidly and hence they become eliminated leading to genetic drift
Answer:
D. By blocking fish migration.
Explanation:
The pictured waterfalls are artificial.
The construction of the wall to raise water level for the falls to be created cuts the contact between marine organisms.
The fish on the other end of the fall cannot freely migrate to the other side.
This is because the falls are too dangerous for them and can lead to their death.
This means that the pictured method of power generation is not environmental friendly.
Answer:
The given statement is false.
A neuron is the basic structural and functional unit of the nervous system. It helps in transmitting information from one neuron to another neuron, gland, or muscle cell.
The conduction of nerve impulse is electrochemical in nature. It transmits the impulse electrically through the axon the nerve cells and chemically through synapses (gap between two nerves cells).
The axon terminals of pre-synaptic nerve cell release chemical messengers (also called neurotransmitters) in the synaptic cleft. These messengers then bind to the receptors present on the post-synaptic nerve cell and regenerate the nerve impulse.
