Lemmings are small mammals that reproduce quickly. A lemming population often grows so quickly that there is not enough food for all of the lemmings to eat. This results in a decline of the lemming population. This example best supports the ideas of which scientist?

Charles Darwin

Explanation:

Malthus

Explanation:

Thomas Robert Malthus was the originator of the theory known as Malthusian Theory. This theory states that the availability of food for a given population, gets smaller and smaller as the population increases. Thus, the more the population becomes, the less food is available to them, which can lead to cases of hunger and misery.

An example of this can be seen in the question above where a population of Lemmings has grown to the point of causing a limitation in available food, causing some members of the population to have no access to food.

•there must be variation for the particular trait within a population.

•the variation must be inheritable (that is, it must be capable of being passed on from the parents to their offspring).

•individuals with one version of the trait must produce more offspring than those with a different version of the trait.good

explanation:

as in mitosis, dna replication occurs during interphase.   in meiosis, it occurs specifically in s phase of interphase 1.
