Claim: Whales evolved from land mammals to water mammals.

Evidence: The first whales evolved over 50 million years. One of the first whales, such as Pakicetus, were land animals with long skulls and carnivorous teeth, much like many adaptable land mammals back then and today.

Although the Cell Theory is widely accepted and well supported, what might happen to cause it change?
Sliva [168]

Answer:

By doing more research.

Explanation:

The cell theory change with the passage of time by doing more research about the cell. The final modification of the cell theory done by Rudolf Virchow in 1855 on the basis of his new research and findings about the cells.    With the passage of time, modification occurs in microscope which enable the scientists to find different parts, organelles and features of cell on the basis of which scientists modify cell theory with the passage of time.

Which of the following statements best exemplifies the difference between a population and an individual?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

d. All of the above exemplify the difference between a population and an individual.

Explanation:

A population is a group of individuals of the same species that live in a particular geographical area and are able to interbreed. A population is described with respect to several features such as death and birth rates, age structure, density, dispersion, change in the population size due to density-dependent and density-independent factors and the survivorship curve.

These features are not exhibited by a particular individual. Natural selection also works at populations. The evolutionary forces act upon populations to change their allele and genotype frequencies. Therefore, populations are the unit of evolution and change genetically over time, not the individuals. Population ecology studies the size of a populations and the trends and causes of changes in the populations over time.

Drosophila melanogaster (select all that apply): Group of answer choices Have the significant disadvantage of a multiple-month l
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Contains large polytene chromosome that permit visual inspection of genomic events.

Were used to study the genetic effects of mutations.

Were used to establish the concept of chromosomal inheritance.

Explanation:

<em>Drosophila melanogaster </em>is a model organism that is used by scientists to study the genes and effect of a mutation on the genes. Drosophila is used as a model organism as it has a very short life cycle and the offspring can be produced in a short duration of time.

Because of these characteristics, Thomas Hunt Morgan wanted to study the factors of inheritance on the <em>Drosophila</em> and concluded in the form of the chromosomal theory of inheritance by the effect of mutation on genes that lead to linkage mapping.

Also, the salivary gland of fruit fly contains the polytene chromosome which allows us to look into the gene events.

Thus, the selected options are correct.
