What is the importance of DNA copying during reproduction?
What is the importance of DNA copying during reproduction?
- It ensures the survival of the organism in a changing niche
- It is responsible for the adaptation of organisms to new niches
- It helps in the maintenance of body design features suited to the niche (correct)
- It increases the genetic variability within the population
In what way are niches linked to the stability of populations?
In what way are niches linked to the stability of populations?
- Changes in niches result in the extinction of populations
- Niches determine the mating patterns within a population
- Niche suitability affects the survival and growth of populations (correct)
- Niches provide resources needed for population growth
Why can variation be useful for the survival of species over time?
Why can variation be useful for the survival of species over time?
- Variation reduces competition within populations
- Variation leads to better adaptation to new niches (correct)
- Variation ensures rapid reproduction in species
- Variation provides resistance to environmental changes
