Aspecies of birds exists in stasis for many thousands of years. suddenly, their environment changes, causing their primary tree of sheltering choice to die. to adapt to their new environment, the birds must nest in trees that are much higher, requiring more wing strength. some birds die. the remaining birds have the wing strength necessary for the new habitat and thus, return to a state of stasis. this is an example of

Match the descriptions / definitions with the term they best describe 1. three dimensional relationship of the different polypeptide chains in a multisubunit protein or protein complex 2. common folding pattern in proteins in which a linear sequence of amino acids folds into a right-handed coil stabilized by internal hydrogen-bonding between polypeptide backbone atoms. 3. the amino acid sequence of a protein 4. a region on the surface of a protein that can interact with another molecule through noncovalent bonding. 5. three-dimensional arrangement of alpha-helices and beta-sheets within a single polypeptide, typically stabilized by a variety of noncovalent bonds, including ionic and hydrogen bonds, and nonpolar interactions / hydrophobic force. 6. the chain of repeating carbon and nitrogen atoms, linked by peptide bonds, in a protein. 7. common structural motif in proteins in which different sections of the polypeptide chain run alongside each other and are joined together by hydrogen bonding between atoms of the polypeptide backbone. 8. portion of a polypeptide chain that has a discrete tertiary structure of its own and can often fold independently of the rest of the chain 9. regular local folding patterns in a protein, including alpha-helix and beta-sheet a. primary structure b. beta-sheet c. protein d. coiled-coil e. polypeptide backbone f. secondary structure g. side chain h. tertiary structure i. binding site j. alpha-helix k. quaternary structure l. protein domain

Adrought killed all the plants in an agricultural farmland. gradually, due to wind and some birds for. nearby areas, new plants started sprouting l. what stage of succession was taking place in the farmland? a) competition b) nudation c) ecesis d) reaction e) migration

Natural selection changes allele frequencies because some survive and reproduce more successfully than others.
