Non-vascular plants have adapted for survival in a lot of ways. These plants live in water for example to hold them sturdy.

Why must there be variations in the population in order for natural selection to occur?

Natural selection works via a simple mechanism: certain organisms, though mutation, will be better-equipped for survival than others of their species. Over time, the better-adapted organisms will have a higher survival rate and, through interbreeding and simply outliving the competition, will eventually replace them. If there was no variation (mutation) in the population, there would be no better-adapted individuals, and no change. This has been the case with some species. Alligators, for example, have been around virtually unchanged (except for size) for nearly 100 million years. They are well-adapted adapted for survival in their environment as it is, and thus there is really no need for improvements that would lead to major evolutionary change.


Why is mitosis essential to an organism's survival?

Mitosis is essential for an organism's survival because it is the process by which cells divide and multiply to repair tissues, help with growth, and replace old or damaged cells. Without mitosis, organisms would not be able to generate new cells necessary for their survival and development.


All of these terms EXCEPT contribute to natural selection?

Genetic drift, as it is a random process that does not necessarily contribute to the differential survival and reproduction of individuals. Variation, heritability, and differential reproductive success are essential components of natural selection.


Are organelles independent life forms in humans?

No, organelles are not independent life forms in humans. They are specialized structures within cells that carry out specific functions necessary for cell survival. Each organelle works together to maintain the cell's overall function and is dependent on the cell for survival.
