QUESTION:

WRITE ABOUT A THEME: Interactions Write a short essay (about 100150 words) evaluating whether changes to an organisms physical environment are likely to result in evolutionary change. Use an example to support your reasoning.

ANSWER:


In discussing the question of whether changes to an organism's physical environment are likely to result in evolutionary change, it is important to first consider the overview that the process of evolution consists of, which is adaptation and natural selection. Adaptation consists of an organism's ability to change to the environmental pressures arising from its environment, while natural selection is the process of these changes leading to gene variations that are advantageous for the organism's survival. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that changes to an organ
