    ^asks for exampleS - more than one is needed/ Also try to be more specific; rather than simply saying study DNA, it is better to say the different methods used (what are they comparing between organisms) E.g. through dna seuqencing it has been determined that the regulatory genes in insects and...

    Changes in an environment's chemical composition acts as a selective pressure to favour the survival of organisms with certain variations over others, thus leading to a population's change in the frequency of alleles (evolution) by natural selection. E.g. Insecticide resistance: DDT was used to...

    Re: HSC 2013 2U Marathon Although your final answer is correct, your working out suggests that the answer is -ln(root2). When you square root the cot^2 x it becomes abs (cotx). Now the integral is defined over the interval x = -pi/4 to x = 0. In this region cotx is negative, so abs(Cotx) =...

    An imbalance of microflora can be caused by bodily stress, infections and the use of drugs which may reduce the populations of certain micro-organisms. This reduces the competition for resources for other micro-organisms allowing them to reproduce uncontrollably (i.e. above the natural levels)...
