Plasticity is most adaptive when the environment change <u>Slowly and predictably </u>throughout an organism's life.

The ability of individual genotypes to create various phenotypes when exposed to various environmental situations is known as phenotypic plasticity. Here, the emphasis is on the role of plasticity in evolution rather than the evolution of plasticity itself, i.e., the evolution of phenotypic traits and organismal variety through plasticity. Phenotypic plasticity is a crucial characteristic of developmental systems that enables the organism to deal with environmental variability and/or unpredictability, although its significance for adaptive evolution is still debated.

What part of the rotifer is responsible for crushing food?
frozen [14]

Answer:

Rotifers are specialists at living in habitats where water dries up regularly.

The Monogononta, which have males, produce fertilised 'resting eggs' which can resist desiccation (drought) for long periods.[11]

The Bdelloids, who have no males, contract into an inert form and lose almost all body water, a process known as cryptobiosis. Bdelloids can also survive the dry state for long periods: the longest well-documented dormancy is nine years. After they have dried, they may be revived by adding water. In this, and several other ways, they are a unique group of animals.[12]

Explanation:

The front has a ring of cilia circling the mouth. This gave the rotifers their old name of "wheel animalules". There is a protective lorica round its body, and a foot. Inside the lorica are the usual organs in miniturised form: a brain, an eye-spot, jaws, stomach, kidneys, urinary bladder.

Rotifers have a number of unusual features. Biologists suppose that these peculiarities are adaptations to their small size and the transient (fast changing) nature of its habitats.

Select the correct answer.
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

D.  A mutation causing uncontrolled cell division

Explanation:

Cell division is controlled by various mechanisms. Any mutations in the genes regulating the cell division lead to uncontrolled cell division. Loss of control over the process of cell division leads to the formation of tumors.  

These tumors may cause cancer if they are transformed into malignant tumors. Hence, a mutation that causes loss of control over cell division is harmful.
