Which statement describes natural selection

Answers

Where is the statement?

Answer: You didn't put any statements lol

Explanation:

But basically natural selection is when organisms with the most favorable traits will survive and reproduce. (ex. there are 2 strains of bacteria - one that resists antibiotics and one that doesn't. The one that resists the antibiotics will strive and reproduce because that will be the more favorable trait that will be able to be inherited by future generations.)

In humans, the "A" allele codes for Type A blood, the "B" allele codes for Type B blood, and the "o" allele codes for Type O blood. "A" and "B" are both dominant to "o." A and B are codominant to each other.

What is the genotypic ratio of a cross between a mother who is heterozygous Type A and a father who is heterozygous Type B?

A. 1 AB : 1 A0:1 Bo : 1oo

B. All AB

C. 2 AA: 2 BB

D. 1 Ao: 2 00:1 Bo​

Answers

Heterozygous means having two different alleles.
The A allele and B allele are dominant. This means that they will be the main allele to express itself. If someone has an A and an o allele, which is recessive, the A allele would express itself over the o allele. A and B are codominant - meaning that if someone had both A and B alleles they’d have type AB blood, as they’d both express.

The mother is heterozygous type A - that means she has one A allele and one o allele
The father is heterozygous type B - meaning he has one B allele and one o allele. I know that it is Bo because if it was BA then he’d have type AB blood because the A and B alleles are codominant.

The genotype ratio is a ratio saying what the chances are of having one type of something (ex blood type, eye color) given the alleles of parents. To find this out make a punnet square with A o on top and B o on the side. Fill it in. I’ve attached a pic of what it will look like.

As you can see 1/4 is AB, 1/4 is Ao, 1/4 is Bo and 1/4 is oo. So the ratio will be letter A: AB:Ao:Bo:oo

Explanation:

All of the following can take material into cells except
O active transport
O exocytosis
O endocytosis
O passive transport

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - exocytosis.

Explanation:

All of the given options of the transport mechanism are the transport of the substances either into the cell or out of the cell or both. Active transport is the transport mechanism that involves the transports of substances from the lower concentration region to the higher concentration region and utilize energy.

Endocytosis and exocytosis are the forms of active transport, however, endocytosis involves taking material into the cell and exocytosis out of the cell. Exocytosis is the form of active transport as it requires energy to moving materials from within a cell to the exterior of the cell.

Define the following :
-self-concept
-self motivation
-volunteer
-self-image
-Adolescents​

Answers

Answer:

Self-concept is the set of ideas that make up the image that each person has about himself, that is, it is the opinion that an individual forges about himself. That sentence carries a certain value judgment. Self-concept: set of elements that a person uses to describe himself. Self-motivation is giving the reasons, the drive, the enthusiasm and the interest that provoke a specific action or a certain behavior. Volunteer is the person who, by his own choice, dedicates part of a part of his time to solidary, altruistic action, without receiving remuneration in return. The stage that comes after childhood and that ranges from puberty to the full development of the body is known as adolescence. Self-image is the value we have in relation to ourselves.

Explanation:

Self-concept: set of elements that a person uses to describe himself. The ability to motivate yourself is what is known as self-motivation. This is an important skill, as it encourages people to continue progressing even in the face of setbacks, to seize opportunities and to show commitment to what they want to achieve. Volunteer is that person who joins an organization in a free way to help altruistically in various social activities. When we speak of self-image we refer to the image that our subconscious has of ourselves. Adolescence is understood as the period of human development after childhood and before adulthood, in which the biological, sexual, social and psychological changes necessary to form a socially mature individual and physically prepared for reproduction take place.

Imagine customers moving into and out of a coffee shop. Which situation
resembles how a reaction in dynamic equilibrium acts?
A. There are the same number of people inside the coffee shop as
outside it.
B. People enter the coffee shop at the same rate as others leave.
C. No people are moving either into or out of the coffee shop.
D. Some people sit down and drink their coffee slowly, while others
drink theirs quickly while standing up.
No

Answers

Answer:

B. People enter the coffee shop at the same rate as others leave.

Explanation:

did the test !!

The answer is B. People enter the coffee shop at the same rate as others leave.

In a reaction in dynamic equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions occur at the same rate, meaning that the concentrations of reactants and products remain constant over time.

Similarly, in the coffee shop scenario, if people are entering and leaving at the same rate, the number of customers inside the shop will remain constant, just like the concentrations of reactants and products in equilibrium.

Option A, C, D are not a good analogy for dynamic equilibrium.

Injecting an antigen from a pathogen would help our immune system memorize the infection and protect our body from causing of the disease because our immune system produces antibodies against that antigen so when the pathogen enters our body these antibodies attack on that and prevent them of causing infection in the body so that's why injecting an  antigen has to be done from the childhood to prevent diseases.

How can evolutionary change in one species lead to evolutionary change in another species that it is associated with? Include an example to support your answer.

Answers

No species exists in a vacuum; every form of life on Earth interacts over time with other organisms, as well as with its physical environment. For that reason, the evolution of one species influences the evolution of species with which it coexists by changing the natural selection pressures those species face.

Evolutionary change in one species lead to evolutionary change in another species that it is associated with by adaptive mechanisms.

What is evolution?

Evolution is a process of gradual cumulative changes which occurs in organisms over a long period of time resulting in the formation of new species.

Evolution in one species results in evolution in a closely related species. For example, the evolution of resistance by trees to insect pests results in similar evolution in insect pest for development of mouth parts that enables them to feed on the plants.

Therefore, evolutionary change in one species lead to evolutionary change in another species that it is associated with.
