Description
Evidence from Species Studied
Variation
Individuals in a population differ in some trait.
Variations can be physical features, behavior, bodily functions, or resistance to disease.
Inheritance
The trait is inherited (passed from parents to offspring).
The variation comes from random
mutations and recombination of genes during sexual reproduction.
Differential Survival and Reproduction
More offspring are born than can survive.
Some individuals with a trait are more likely to survive and reproduce than those without the trait.
Selection depends on the environment. Traits that are beneficial in one environment may not be beneficial in another.
Adaptation
The frequency of the trait that helps individuals survive or leave more offspring will increase in the population over time, as will the alleles that affect the trait.
This process can take many generations and extend over very long periods of time.

The pharynx is the structure in the body that serves as a pathway of both air and food. how does the body make sure that food does not get into the lungs? the salivary glands secrete enzymes that pull food out of the air pathway. the small intestine pushes the air out of the digestive system. the pancreas breaks down food in the air pathway. the epiglottis closes the air pathway so that food will not enter it.

Be in this im starting a with you so if you want you can get a partner for this. but basically im going to assign you guys a biome and you have to have a big sheet paper and you will turn it into 4 squares. the top right square is will be a drawing square for a drawing you will make of your biome. the top left square is about the biomes plants and drawings of them. the bottom left square is about the biomes animals. the bottem rights square is about the description of the biome. leave a comment or an answer and i will assign biomes. if your request one thats the one you get. send me a link to the project and i will grade ! im not a teacher btw.

In a hypothetical breed of dogs, coat color is controlled by two genes. there are six different coat colors in this breed: black, brown, cream, gray, silver, and tan. consider the following crosses. cross 1: black females from a lineage of all black dogs are crossed with brown males from a lineage of all brown dogs. f1 males and females are all black. when f1 are intercrossed, f2 males and females are black or brown. cross 2: black females from a lineage of all black dogs are crossed with tan males from a lineage where all males are tan and all females are cream. f1 males are black, f1 females are gray. when f1 are intercrossed, f2 males and females are black, brown, gray, or tan. cross 3: silver females from a lineage where all females are silver and all males are gray are crossed with brown males from a lineage of all brown dogs. f1 males and females are all gray. when f1 are intercrossed, f2 males are black, brown, gray, or tan, f2 females are cream, gray, silver, or tan. select the correct statements regarding the mode of inheritance of the coat color genes. a) both genes are x-linked. b) both genes are autosomal. c) one of the genes modifies the expression of the other gene. d) each gene has an additive effect on the intensity of coat color. e) each gene independently specifies three colors. f) one of the genes is autosomal, and the other is x-linked.
