Select the statement(s) that support bird beak adaptations as

supporting evidence for the theory of natural selection.

-The top bird with a beak adapted for

insect eating would not succeed on a

Galapagos Island with little insects but

plentiful seeds.

-The middle bird with a woodpecker

beak adapted for seed eating most

likely could dig deeper for larger,

harder covered insects more

successfully than the top bird with the

insect eating beak.

The bottom right bird with a beak

adapted for seed eating would succeed

on a Galapagos Island with plentiful

insects but little vegetation.

The bottom right bird with a beak

adapted for seed eating would succeed

on a Galapagos Island with plentiful

vegetation and few insects.

Answer 1

Answer:

-The top bird with a beak adapted for  insect eating would not succeed on a Galapagos Island with little insects but  plentiful seeds.

-The middle bird with a woodpecker  beak adapted for seed eating most  likely could dig deeper for larger,  harder covered insects more  successfully than the top bird with the  insect eating beak.

-The bottom right bird with a beak  adapted for seed eating would succeed  on a Galapagos Island with plentiful  vegetation and few insects.

Explanation:

The theory of natural selection explains that organisms undergo changes in their physical and genetic features that make it possible for them to adjust to their environments. There are different types of birds having different shapes of beaks adapted for life in several environments.

There are insectivorous birds whose beaks are adapted for eating insects, granivorous birds with short, conical beaks for cracking seeds, frugivorous birds adapted for eating fruits, nectivorous for sucking nectars, among others. The adaptations are unique to the birds and determine their survival and feeding habits in several environments.

Prokaryotes do not have a nucleus.

Answers

Explanation:

Prokaryotes do have their genomic DNA concentrated and localized to a small area within cell. so its not accurate to say that they do not have a nucleus.

Prokaryotes are single-celled organisms belonging to the domains Bacteria and Archaea. Prokaryotic cells are much smaller than eukaryotic cells, have no nucleus, and lack organelles. All prokaryotic cells are encased by a cell wall. Many also have a capsule or slime layer made of polysaccharide.

Is a reflex part of the central
nervous system, the peripheral
nervous system, or both? Explain.

Answers

Answer:Because the peripheral nervous system transmit reflex impulses from sense organs to central nervous system and then back to the sense organs. So both the Central nervous system and the peripheral systems are involved.

To understand a bit better.....

One of our body parts consists of a nervous system it is a complex network of neurons and cells that carry pieces of information to and from the brain and spinal cord to various parts of the body.

So in conclusion...

Yes! The Central nervous system and the peripheral systems are involved!So therefore your question is correct!

Answers

I think it's not because of the water we use it's the water we have.

Explanation:

Because our planet is made up of 75% water it is naturally the first thing to recognize.

Many people call Earth the “blue planet” because seen from far away, what really stands out of the planet, it’s the the ocean as the earth is most covered with water well salt water and most of the water is not available to humans because most of the water contains salt which is not fresh water, only a small percentage of the water is fresh and drinkable

Which statement best describes codominance and incomplete dominance?

Answers

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are;

A) In codominance and incomplete dominance, both of the alleles are dominant.

B) In codominance and incomplete dominance, neither of the alleles are dominant.

C) In codominance, both of the alleles are dominant; in incomplete dominance, neither of the alleles is dominant.

D) In codominance, neither of the alleles is dominant; in incomplete dominance, both of the alleles are dominant.

The answer is C

Explanation:

Codominance and incomplete dominance are both a type of non-mendelian inheritance pattern i.e. patterns of inheritance that do not follow mendelian principles.

- In codominance, the alleles of a gene are both dominant and hence, both express themselves simultaneously for that trait. An example is the alleles A and B of the blood group in humans where both A and B are dominant in the gene.

- In incomplete dominance, neither of the two alleles of gene is dominant and none is recessive either. This means that the two alleles blend together to form an intermediate phenotype in a heterozygous offspring. An example is the pink flower in four o'clock plants resulting from the blending of red and white alleles.

The correct answer is b

State the level of organization of euglena onion bulb and blood

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is -

Euglena - single-cell organism

Onion bulb - organ

Blood - tissue (connective tissue)

Explanation:

The level of organization of an organ, or organism could be cellular level, tissue level, the organ level, organ system, or a complete organism. These levels are formed by assembling the lower level of the organization.

Euglena is a single-cell eukaryotic organism found in freshwater. These organisms have a very simple level of an organism which is cellular level. The onion bulb is the organ of the onion plant composed of shortened, compressed, underground stems (tissue) that are an organ-level organization.

The blood is considered as connective tissue due to the blood cells present in the matrix called plasm thus, blood is connective tissue.

Need help. Will give brainliest. Answer all these questions.

Answers

Answer:

1. The daughter cells are genetically identical because they each contain the same diploid chromosome complement as the original parent cell. It can be seen in the stages shown above that mitosis maintains the chromosome number or complement of a cell.

2.  Much of the growth in an adult is attributed to the growth plate in the bones, which is line of cells at each end of the bone that divides rapidly during puberty. As the bones elongate, the muscles also elongate as they are stimulated to grow by stretching and hormonal changes. When puberty is completed, the growth plate calcifies into solid bone and can no longer grow. Muscles can continue to enlarge with athletic activities and can sometimes split with excessive force, but muscle cells typically do not continue to divide. Cells such as your skin, hair, and interior mucus surface cells continue to divide because they are in direct contact with things from the outside world. Bone marrow also continually divides to produce red and white blood cells. Many other cells in your body do not continue cell division.

3. The number of Chromosomes stay the same when the cell divides because before a cell divides it produces new copies of the Chromosomes in the nucleus so when division takes place two genetically identical 'daughter cells', containing the same genes, are formed.

4. – in cells capable of dividing, the period between cell divisions is called interphase – cells spend most of their time in interphase because this is the phase where they perform their functions (obtaining energy, synthesizing products, repair damage, fight disease, duplicate their genetic material and get ready for division)

5. Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that does not involve the fusion of gametes or change in the number of chromosomes. The offspring that arise by asexual reproduction from either unicellular or multicellular organisms inherit the full set of genes of their single parent. Asexual reproduction is the primary form of reproduction for single-celled organisms such as archaea and bacteria. Many eukaryotic organisms including plants, animals, and fungi can also reproduce asexually. In vertebrates, the most common form of asexual reproduction is parthenogenesis which is typically used as an alternative to sexual reproduction in times when reproductive opportunities are limited. While all prokaryotes reproduce without the formation and fusion of gametes, mechanisms for lateral gene transfer such as conjugation, transformation and transduction can be likened to sexual reproduction in the sense of genetic recombination in meiosis.

6. Since each of the parent cell’s chromosomes were replicated during interphase, there are two copies of each chromosome in the cell during prophase. Once the chromatin has condensed into individual chromosomes, the genetically-identical chromosomes come together to form an “X” shape, called sister chromatids .
