Some organisms, such as fish and mosquitoes, produce very large numbers of offspring. Why is producing a large number of offspring important for natural
selection?
O It increases the chance that enough individuals will survive to become adults and reproduce.
O It provides the offspring protection from predators because predators never attack a large
group of offspring.
O It helps to reduce the population sizes of other species by increasing competition for limited
resources within an environment.
O It minimizes genetic variation by increasing the number of individuals that are genetically
identical.

The dna in a cell’s nucleus encodes proteins that are eventually targeted to every membrane and compartment in the cell, as well as proteins that are targeted for secretion from the cell. for example, consider these two proteins: phosphofructokinase (pfk) is an enzyme that functions in the cytoplasm during glycolysis. insulin, a protein that regulates blood sugar levels, is secreted from specialized pancreatic cells. assume that you can track the cellular locations of these two proteins from the time that translation is complete until the proteins reach their final destinations. for each protein, identify its targeting pathway: the sequence of cellular locations in which the protein is found from when translation is complete until it reaches its final (functional) destination. (note that if an organelle is listed in a pathway, the location implied is inside the organelle, not in the membrane that surrounds the organelle.)
