Which do you think would adapt and survive overtime to a mass extinction? A starfish or an eel?

Answer:

Starfish

Explanation:

This is an opinion questions, so there really isn't a right or wrong answer.  You could just as easily choose Eel.  Your task is to pick one and defend your reasoning.

I chose starfish because starfish have a long history of demonstrated adaptability to a wide variety of conditions.  Their armored skin protects them from a variety of predators, as does the poison that many of them contain.  They have the ability to regrow limbs, and even regrow entire starfish from certain body parts.  When it comes time to breed, starfish meet together in groups.  Each female releases a few million eggs from the gonads in each of her arms.  Each male then releases billions of sperm from each gonad in each of his arms, thus covering the eggs with sperm to fertilize them.

How can a change in genotype affect the phenotype
uranmaximum [27]

Roughly, the definition of 'genotype' is a description of genetic characteristics or makeup. Phenotype can be described as the resulting physical characteristics subsequent to genotype. This means that differences in genetic makeup could greatly influence how something, such as an embryo, develops.

Comment: I use a memory aid for this ind of thing, as I easily get them mixed up. Simply use the two letters of each word. Genotype --> genetic, and phenotype--> physical. Hope I answered your question.

You are on standby at a sporting event when an infant nearby suddenly begins to cough and is unable to make any noise shortly af
8_murik_8 [283]

In the given situation the appropriate step would be to give sets of 5 back slaps and 5 chest thrusts.

If one finds an infant choking, and he or she is not responding, then first kneel or sit with the infant in the lap. Hold the infant with the face down and resting on the forearm, with the head slightly lower in comparison to the chest. After that, there is a need to apply 5 sets of back slaps and 5 sets of chest thrust.

Clearing a substance from a responsive infant's airway needs a combination of chest thrusts and back slaps. However, abdominal thrusts would not be appropriate.

Which wound usually involves ears, fingers, and hands, and results in tearing or pulling off of a flap of skin
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Avulsion.

Explanation:

Human bite wounds are blunt wounds, sometimes with partial or total avulsion (ear, lips, nose, hands) and with intense contamination. An avulsion is a complete tear of the skin and subcutaneous tissue. It does not allow the approximation of edges. It presents moderate to abundant hemorrhage and is accompanied by the exposure of underlying tissues (bone, tendon). The tear can be complete or partial; in the latter case, a connection or bridge is preserved between the torn tissue and the rest of the body.
