What evolutionary feature will you expect to see in the tortoises on the island?
Answer: The most expectant evolutionary feature would be longer necks. This will enable the tortoises to reach the higher grass. This would occur through natural selection that would favor the extreme traits (alleles of long neck) of long necks in the population.
Explanation:hope it helps you
Answer:
The evolutionary feature you will expect you see in the tortoises on the island is longer necks.
Explanation:
Longer necks will be able to occur through natural selection. Tortoises would be able to reach for higher grass when grass isn't available from lower. This is a favorable trait.

is it more beneficial for humans to undergo sexual reproduction than asexual reproduction?
Answer:Advantages and disadvantages of sexual and asexual reproduction
Sexual reproduction involves two parents and the joining of male and female gametes during fertilisation. The offspring inherit a mixture of genes from both parents, so are different to each other and their parents.
The advantages of sexual reproduction:
produces genetic variation in the offspring
the species can adapt to new environments due to variation, which gives them a survival advantage
a disease is less likely to affect all the individuals in a population
In asexual reproduction there is only one parent. The offspring are clones of the parent and each other.
The advantages of asexual reproduction include:
the population can increase rapidly when the conditions are favourable
only one parent is needed
it is more time and energy efficient as you don't need a mate
it is faster than sexual reproduction
The disadvantages of sexual reproduction:
time and energy are needed to find a mate
it is not possible for an isolated individual to reproduce
The disadvantages of asexual reproduction include:
it does not lead to genetic variation in a population
the species may only be suited to one habitat
disease may affect all the individuals in a population
Examples in the natural world
Bacterial reproduction
Bacteria, such as E. coli, reproduce asexually. An advantage of this is that they can produce many bacteria very quickly. A disadvantage is that all of the bacteria are genetically identical. If an antibiotic was used on the bacteria, then all of them would die. The population would be wiped out. The only way for variation to be introduced into the population is by random mutation.
Rabbit reproduction
Most animals reproduce sexually, for example, rabbits. The process of sexual reproduction introduces variation into the species because the alleles that the mother and the father carry are mixed together in the offspring. A disadvantage is that sexual reproduction takes longer than asexual reproduction. A mate must be found, the egg must be fertilised by sperm, and then the offspring develop. The benefit of introducing genetic variation into the species, however, outweighs this disadvantage. If a disease were to hit the rabbit population, then perhaps not all of the rabbits would be affected because of the variation in the population. This means that some individuals would survive and be able to reproduce and generate more offspring.
Asexual and sexual reproduction in fungi
Some fungi are able to reproduce both sexually and asexually. Fungi reproduce using spores which they release into the environment. A new fungus will grow from the spore. The Coprinus cinereus fungus can produce spores by sexual reproduction to help create variation in the species. This method of reproduction is advantageous when the environment is changing because the variation introduced leads to an increase in the probability that a variant that can deal with the change. Coprinus cinereus also produces spores by asexual reproduction. These spores can be produced quickly and in large numbers to enable many individual fungi to develop. A disadvantage of these spores is that they generate offspring that are unlikely to be resistant to unfavourable conditions because they are all genetically identical.
Common inkcap mushrooms
Some mushrooms can carry out both asexual and sexual reproduction depending on their environment

Chlorofluorocarbon.
Explanation:
Chlorofluorocarbon is the chemical compound that is responsible for the thinning of ozone layer present in the stratosphere. This Chlorofluorocarbon is used in the refrigerators and aerosol sprays. The major environmental consequence of the depletion of stratospheric ozone is the melting of glaciers in the Antarctica. It also has adverse effect on humans because it is responsible for the skin cancer disease in humans. Breathing ground-level ozone can trigger a variety of health problems such as chest pain, coughing, throat irritation, and congestion.

Explanation:
You are an aquatic biologist studying a small lake. The stream that drains into this lake runs by croplands. You are detecting a pesticide called atrazine in the insects and worms that live in the lake. The predatory birds such as herons and egrets have very high concentrations of atrazine in their blood. The birds prey on the frogs and small fish. What condition best explains the high atrazine level in the birds?
The condition best explains the high atrazine level in the birds is biological magnification. The correct option is D.
What is biological magnification?Biological magnification is the occurrence of any chemical in the body of a living organism than in outer space or the environment. The chemicals can be toxins or pesticides. They are present within the tolerant level in the tissue.
Here, the atrazine level is high in frogs and small fish than in the surrounding water, which is going in birds.
Thus, option D. biological magnification is correct.

Which would NOT likely be used as evidence of evolution?
Answer:
what is there to pick from?
Explanation:
The option that does not provide evidence that living things have been evolving for millions of years is intelligence. The correct option is C.
What is evidence?In science, evidence refers to any observations, measurements, or facts that support or refute a hypothesis or theory.
Intelligence is not a factor that provides evidence for evolution. The process of evolution is driven by natural selection, genetic mutations, and other biological factors, not intelligence.
On the other hand, the other answer choices are all factors that provide evidence for evolution:
(A) Fossil record: provides evidence of changes in species over time.
(B) Natural variation within a species: provides the raw material for evolution to act upon.
(D) Homologous structures of living organisms: provide evidence of common ancestry and evolution over time.
(E) Similarities in embryological development: provide evidence of shared evolutionary history and common ancestry.
Thus, the correct option is C.

David was sitting in his hotel room reading a book, when he heard a knock at the door, and the sound of someone trying the door handle. He opened the door,
where he saw a man whom he had never seen before. The man said, "I'm terribly sorry... I thought this was my room. Wrong floor, I guess. He then walked
off down the hall toward the elevator. David went back into his room, thought about what had just happened, and then phoned the front desk, suggesting they
call the police, since the man at the door had obviously been a thief.
Why was David so sure the man had been a thief?
Answer:
if he thought that it was his own room, he wouldn't have knocked (because people don't knock on their own rooms)

If an egg is fertilized and the embryo implants itself in the uterus, the ovaries will stop producing new eggs. Explain how the ovaries are signaled to stop egg production.
Answer:
Six to 10 days after fertilization, the embryo attaches, or implants, itself into the lining of the uterus. During the next week or so, the embryo receives its nourishment and oxygen from the cells that make up the lining of the uterus. The two layers of cells become more pronounced.
An mRNA sequence reads: GAA/GCU/AUA/CUA/UGU. What would the effect on the amino acid be if the second codon read GCA instead, and the third codon read AAU ?
A) Silent mutation on both, no changes whatsoever.
B) Silent mutation on second codon, third amino acid changed from PHE to STOP
C) Silent mutation on AAU only. Third amino acid is now HIS
D) Silent mutation on second codon, third amino acid changed from ILE to ASN.
Answer:
D) Silent mutation on second codon, third amino acid changed from ILE to ASN.
Explanation:
Silent mutations are usually point mutation where you change one nucleotide. Since, the nucleotide changed is the third position, it does not affect the protein being manufactured (it will still put the amino acid Ala) [look up the codon redundancy on youtub.e to understand how awesome nature is!]
On the other hand, the other mutation introduced is Missense mutation where a different Amino acid is added due to change in codon (goes from ILE to ASN).
