What is Natural Selection? Give an example for Natural Selection for Survival.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

is the process in nature by which organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and reproduce more than those less adapted to their environment. For example, treefrogs are sometimes eaten by snakes and birds

Explanation:

It's sorta like adapting with extra steps.

Answer 2

Answer: Natural Selection

Explanation: Individuals in a species have variation or mutations.

These differences may either be helpful, such as a giraffe with a long neck, or unhelpful, such as a colour variance in a moth that makes them stand out to predators.

The individuals that are more suited to their environment will survive and breed, passing on their genes.

Those that are not suited will die and their genes will not be in the  ‘gene pool’.

This is the survival of the fittest!

X-rays carry a small risk of damaging DNA which can lead to cancer. Why are they still used by doctors?

Answers

Answer:

Despite the risk of DNA damage and cancer production, X-rays are still used by doctors because the benefit of this diagnostic study outweighs the risk, which in most cases is very low.

Explanation:

Diagnostic radiology studies, such as X-rays and CT scans, are procedures that use ionizing radiation to obtain images of the inside of the body. Prolonged or constant exposure to this type of radiation is harmful because there is a risk of producing damage to DNA and can lead to the development of cancer.

However, the use of X-rays and CT scans are non-invasive diagnostic methods whose information provides an accurate diagnosis of a disease and, when well used, has a very low risk of organ damage.

Ionizing radiation is measured in milisieverts (mSv) and exposure from radiologic studies is in the range of 0.1 to 10 mSv per study. The amount of ionizing radiation a person is expected to receive per year from exposure to their environment is in the order of 3 to 5 mSv per year, so diagnostic imaging studies involve a low risk of organ damage.

Doctors continue to use X-rays as a diagnostic study, despite the risk of cancer and DNA damage, because the benefit —accessible, noninvasive, and cost-effective— far outweighs the risk.

Describe how a carbon atom is released from a fossil fuel like coal and travels into the atmosphere as a gas. How does it then end up in living things like plants and animals? Explain how carbon ends up back in the ground. Use the following terms in your typed response: CO2, C6H12O6, atmosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, carbon sink, carbon source.

Answers

Explanation:

Animals and plants need to get rid of carbon dioxide (c02), this process is called respiration. Respiration happens when the plant/animal breaths in air and releases it as carbon, carbon then moves from fossil fuels to the atmosphere where they are burned. When humans burn fossil fuels to power cities, power plants, cars, and trucks, most of the carbon quickly enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide gas.

Answers

A.
Commuters drive personal vehicles to their places of work: offices, manufacturing plants etc.

Some may use car pooling or mass transit like buses. But too many want the luxury and convenience of coming and going on their own terms.

IMHO car pooling and mass transit needs to be used more to reduce environmental harm.
