This chapter discusses the meaning of adaptedness, and examines its relation both to natural selection and to the conditions for existence. Adaptedness means a certain appropriateness or fit between the various aspects of an organism's morphology, physiology, lifestyle, and environment. The chapter ...
Some loss of genetic diversity is expected under natural conditions as a result of natural selection and processes 在自然条件下,由于自然选择和自然进程的结果,预期遗传多样性也会有一些丧失。 MultiUn Natural conditions of plain areas are favourable for sustained agricultural production and contemporary ...
In the context of the choice of a single agent, the transitivity of strict preferences ensures that the best response correspondence is increasing in the sense of a natural preorder; if the preferences are represented by an interval order, there is an increasing selection from the best response...
It's the first condition for making money. One Management A good shop, if you choose the wrong store, will affect the business, but it may also lead to "closing down". Therefore, the site selection is very important. Whether this step is right or not determines the future. ...
Despite the importance of small‐bodied, short‐lived animals as laboratory models for life‐history and aging studies, very little is known about sex differences in life‐history patterns under natural conditions. Here, we tested for sex‐specific patterns of reproductive and actuarial aging in ...
Legumes are known to be either sensitive or moderately resistant to salinity. The salt sensitivity can be attributed to toxic ion accumulations in different plant tissues, which disturb some enzyme activities. Among the basic selection criteria for salt-tolerant legumes and rhizobia are genetic variabi...
Some of the confusions in deriving boundary conditions for unit cells result from the use of finite elements which is usually based on a variational principle of some kind in which some boundary conditions, called natural boundary conditions, are satisfied automatically as a part of the variation ...
Natural selection is expected to select for and maintain maternal behaviors associated with choosing a nest site that promotes successful hatching of offspring, especially in animals that do not exhibit parental care such as reptiles. In contrast to temperature effects, we know little about how soil...
There was no support for the influence of any of the other covariates assessed on lifespan or breeding lifespan. There was no evidence for differences in lifespan or breeding lifespan between sexes (Table S7). The initial steps of model selection also suggested a correlation between lifespan ...
