Optimal Foraging All animals face the problem of finding resources for growth, maintenance and reproduction. It is assumed that natural selection should tend to produce animals that are very efficient at propagating their genes, and hence at doing everything else, including finding food and mates. At some point in an animal’s life it may experience starvation, and prolonged starvation can lead to death. By natural selection, the animals that survive are able to pass their genes to the next generation

Over the years it has been evident that physical activity increase the amount of mitochondria in the in order to compensate for the energy expenditure during exercise. However the molecular mechanisms of this process is becoming clear only very recently. Mitochondrial biogenesis is also considered as a mjor tool that is repnsible for maintaining the mitochondrial number within the cell. And it is not only a change in number of the mitochondria but it is also responsible for maintainignthe mitochondrial
