The specialized setae on the sides of the cockroach are an example of a structural adaptation. These setae enable the cockroach to sense air currents where it would not be able to normally see, helping it to avoid predators.

What is the evolutionary concept that those with adaptive genetic traits will live and reproduce?

This concept is known as natural selection. It is a key mechanism of evolution proposed by Charles Darwin, which states that individuals with advantageous genetic traits for survival and reproduction are more likely to pass those traits on to the next generation. Over time, this leads to the accumulation of adaptive traits in a population.


Who developed the idea that the accumulation of minor adaptive traits over time leads to new species?

Charles Darwin.


What is adaptive as used in evolution?

Adaptive in evolution refers to traits or characteristics that increase an organism's chances of survival and reproduction in a specific environment. These adaptations are shaped by natural selection, where individuals with advantageous traits are more likely to pass on their genes to the next generation.

What are some similarities in divergent and convergent evolution?

The adaptive traits that arise through convergent evolution are called analogous. These are the same adaptive solutions that arise in different organisms facing very similar environmental challenges and having analogous mutations to come to similar traits through natural selection. Wings in birds, bats and insects are examples of this.


Natural selection is the only mechanism of evolution that will lead to?
