Is the way an orgamism looks and behaves a result of its genotype?
The way an organism looks and behaves is a combination of its genotype and also of the environment. For example, identical twins have the same genome but slightly different environments, which cause differences in each twin's behavior.
Do the internal environments of males and females differ?
Males and females do have differences. Their brains differ in size and in basic functioning. The male is controlled by what is called a "hunter's instinct", and the femaleis controlled by what is called a "nurturer's instinct".
Which of the following are responsible for the differences between species and for differences between individuals in the same population?
Genetic differences
What are the differences between male and female urethras?
There are several physiological differences between male and female urethras. One of the major differences is that a males urethra is longer than that of a female.
What are the similarities and differences in evolutionary theory?

What is an explanation for these differences in organ structure?
adaptation of organisms to their environments

What is the causes of personality differences?
Personality differences can be influenced by a combination of genetic factors, upbringing, environment, and life experiences. Genetics play a significant role in shaping personality traits, while environmental factors such as family upbringing, cultural influences, and social interactions also contribute to individual differences in personality. Life experiences, such as trauma or successes, can further shape and mold one's personality over time.
How do differences between individuals and environments affect natural selection?
Differences between individuals may affect differences in their average reproductive success, causing the variant traits of individuals that have greater reproductive success (fitness) to become more prevalent in a given environment than rival traits. As environments change, so may the traits that have a reproductive advantage change. This is natural selection.
What is differential medium?
A single substrate that discriminates between group[s of microorganisms on the basic of differences in their appearance due to different chemical reactions.

complex, man made terrian, concentrated infrastructure, and dense population
What is the type of evolution by which organisms evolve differences when they are isolated in different environments?
Allopatric speciation.Allopactric speciation. Geographic isolation. Adaptive radiation can also result from geographic isolation.
What in multiprogramming and time sharing?
Time-sharing and multiprogramming have various differences. However, these two environments share the feature whereby several users can use the system at the same time.
Describe the similarities and differences of antibiotics and disinfectants?
One similarity is that both antibiotics and disinfectants help keep people healthy. The difference is antibiotics inhibit or kill microorganisms while disinfectants only kill them.
What is the difference saltwater fish and freshwater fish?
The difference is saltwater fish tend to live in environments where there is salt available in the water (oceans) and freshwater fish live in environments that lack in salt(rivers, ponds, streams). There are also a number of biological and physiological differences relating to water and salt retention and excretion.
Why do many scientists believe there are differences in living things?
Because species adapt to different environments and habitats.
