Why are vacuum cleaners not living organisms?

Vacuum cleaners do not meet the minimum requirements for biological life, so they are not living organisms. They do not grow, reproduce or adapt to the environment by changing.


What enables organisms to survive in a changing environment?

Adaptaion


The highest rate of natural selection would probably occur when?

This would occur when organisms showing many genetic differences caused by mutations and genetic recombination reproduce in a changing environment.


What are the three key points of Natural Selection?

That more organisms are born than the available resources can support leading to a struggle for existence. That all these organisms are variants and that some variants are better adapted to the immediate environment and will survive and reproduce better that the other organisms in that environment. That these beneficial traits that organisms posses are heritable, passed on to progeny and change the allele frequency in populations of organisms over time leading to evolution.

Which of the following best explains why species that reproduce sexually have an advantage in a rapidly changing environment as compared to species that reproduce asexually?

Organisms that reproduce asexually pass on a duplicate of their genetic material, and don't have to worry about the random outcome of allele frequencies from crossing over. Asexual reproduction occurs more quickly because the organism doesn't have to find a mate to reproduce. So asexual organisms don't have to worry about impressing anybody. All of these qualities that asexual reproducers possess are great if the environment they live in is unchanging. But what happens if the environment decides to change like it inevitably does. Well if the asexual reproducers aren't fit for the environment they die and so will the rest of their offspring because they inherited the exact same disabilities that the parent organism had. If the parent of seven offspring dies because they was not adapt for the changes that occurred in the environment then the offspring still have a chance for survival if they inherited a trait from the other parent that would help them survive in the changing environment. Another reason why sexual reproduction is so beneficial is that it is better at combating disease.

How do successful adaptations improve an organism's fitness?

An organisms fitness is it's ability to survive and reproduce. Adaptations help an organism do so. According to Darwin, natural selection plays a big part in the adaptations that help an animal survive. Natural selection is basically "the best qualities win and reproduce". Over time, the qualities that survived become adaptations, shaping themselves to the changing environment. Because the best qualities lead to successful adaptations, the "favorable" organism will survive and reproduce, increasing its fitness.


What must organisms do in a changing environment if they are to survive?

Organisms can cause changes in their environment to ensure survival in various ways. This happens through the various processes that cause organisms in different trophic levels to interact from producers to consumers and to decomposers.


How does natural selection affect the kinds of spieces that will live in an environment that is changing?

A organism with traits that are suited to a certain environment have a better chance of surviving than organisms who's traits are not suited for the environment.
