Ans.
Sickle-cell disorder shows defected red blood cells, due to mutation in gene that code for hemoglobin. The mutated genes for sickle-cell disease are found in higher percentage of sub-Saharan African population as it provides protection against malaria as compared to population of United States.
Malaria is common in sub-Saharan Africa region and there, natural selection favored gene for sickle cells, because it might be beneficial to people having sickle cell disease that makes them able to survive in such condition and transmit their genes to offspring.
On the other hand, in those Africans, who moved to United States, where malaria is uncommon or absent, natural selection favored normal, wild type genes, resulting in fewer people with defected sickle cell.
Thus, the evolutionary process behind this is 'natural selection.'
Fossils can show structural similarities and differences in organisms over time revealing the vast diversity of life forms that have and continue to exist on Earth.
Comparisons between living organisms and fossils also allow scientists to make inferences about the lines of descent.
120N because F =ma. You just multiply the mass and the acceleration.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Consumers (animals) get their energy by eating the producers and/or other consumers. Scavengers and decomposers get their energy by eating dead plants or animals. Living organisms require these nutrients to create cells, tissues and to provide energy for life processes. Thus, all living things need energy to survive.
