A projection of bones in the back of the cranium where neck muscles attach is called a(n): nuchal torus.

<h3>what does cranium do?</h3>

One of the most important part of skull anatomy is the cranium.

The skull is made up of 22 bone where 8 bones are cranial bones which are attached to facial bone form a face and the complete structure of skull.

The major function of  cranium include to provide protection to the brain parts like cerebellum, cerebrum, and brain stem.

It also provide a surface for the facial muscles. The cranial nerve in cranium are essential for smelling, seeing, and chewing.

Which description of synapses is not correct? which description of synapses is not correct? second messengers can activate gene
LiRa [457]
The incorrect among the choices is "<span>direct signaling involves the activation of g proteins"

This is incorrect because direct signaling does not involve the activation of g proteins rather it involves the activation of ion channels resulting to either an excitation reaction (depolarization of the membrane) or an inhibition reaction (hyperpolarization of the membrane); and this will ultimately affect the action of the organ the nerve is innervating.</span>

Because of genetic variation, a species of beetle has two different body colors, red and green. This species exists in a grassy
pshichka [43]

Answer:

1. Green beetles and red beetles exist in the environment.

2. Birds that eat the beetles move into the environment.

3. Red beetles are eaten by birds, but green beetles aren’t eaten.

4. Green beetles pass on their color trait to future offspring.

5. The entire population of beetles eventually becomes green in color.

Explanation:

According to the theory of natural selection, only those species survives which fits closely with their environment. According to the conditions given, there are two genetic variations of the same species based on the color, i.e. green and red. Initially, both red and green are living together in a grassland (green in color). Then, birds enter the same environment because they have food there (beetles). Now, green beetles will take a competitive advantage because of the color and avoid getting eaten by the birds. However, red beetles would be prominent and eaten fast. The green beetles will pass on their genetic variation causing the color to be green in their future offspring and a time will come when there will be on green beetles in the area.
