Your teacher describes a population of fish that live in a coral reef. some fish are dark orange (the same color as the coral); other fish are nearly white. human activity has led to the bleaching of the coral reefs, making them very pale in color. over time, the population of fish will be affected. which graph represents the type of selection that you expect to occur?

whats the selection

The graph showing the decrease in the population size of the orange fish and the corresponding increase in the population size of the white fish is the correct option. This is natural selection in action, albeit resulting from a anthropogenic causal factor i.e. the bleaching of the coral. The orange fish are more poorly camouflaged against the white rock, so more of them are eaten, and less survive to reproduce. This means more white fish reproduce and have white offspring, and over several generations this results in more white fish than orange.

Cell division is important to single celled organisms because it allows the cells to reproduce. through cell division, cells make exact copies of themselves. when single celled organisms go through cell division, they make exact copies of themselves which is how they reproduce.
