(04.01 MC) Among a migrating species of fish, one individual migrates further than any other in its population. As a result, the fish develops stronger swimming muscles than any other individual in its population, allowing it to catch more prey. Will the fish’s offspring be favored by natural selection? Why or why not? (3 points)

A 70 kVp phоtоn strikes аn inner shell electrоn, аll of the photon energy is trаnsferred to the electron, and the electron is ejected from its orbit. This describes:
Describe the jоurney оf а N аtоm thаt travels through a cropping system. (7 pts) Starting as N2 gas, it first interacts with a crop that eventually dies and decomposes, resulting in a transformation to NH4+. Describe the two processes involved in the transformation and the two main groups of organisms involved in this part of the journey. (11 pts) As a NH4+ molecule, this N atom can now be affected by multiple processes. Describe the microbial process that convert it to NO3- and two controlling factors of that process. Describe two other important products (or byproducts) of that reaction - one is a gas, the other is not. Alternatively, NH4+ may be affected by three other processes (excluding crop uptake) – describe these three processes and one controlling factor for each. (7 pts) As a NO3- molecule, the N atom now faces two main opposite paths (excluding crop uptake), both of which result in N loss from the system. Describe these two processes, including one controlling factor for each process, and a potential environmental impact for each process.
