The experiments conducted on the tephritid fly and jumping spider by Greene and colleagues is to get an understanding of the relationship existing between predator and prey.

In the experiment, they tested whether the display of the tephritid fly got disturbed and mimicked the jumping spiders' appearance as a way to deter the attack. It is found that, with the exposure of the tephritid fly to the jumping spider, the wings of the fly were kept in a perpendicular position to its body, and waving in an up and down direction is observed. Moreover, the dark bandings also appeared in the wings.

Hence, these are the changes that happened with the fly enable them to mimic the appearance of jumping spiders and help them to survive.

Explanation:

Sugars tend to dissolve, while lipids aggregate out because sugar has hydrophilic (water loving) interaction with water and on the other hand lipids have hydrophobic (fear of water) interaction with water. Water is a polar solvent and only polar solute dissolve in it due to phenomenon of like dissolve like, while lipids does not dissolve in it because lipid is non-polar in nature. In this case, sugar is hydrophilic while lipids is hydrophobic.

aalyn [17]

Answer:

In the 1960s, Lynn Magulis came up with the theory of endosymbiosis. Different evidence supports this theory that the cell organelles like chloroplasts and mitochondria were once utilized by the independent living species. Both of these organelles exhibit their own genetic material. The mitochondria cannot differentiate to produce chloroplasts and vice versa.  

However, the fact that the mitochondria are found in all the cells of eukaryotes, while the chloroplast is witnessed only in certain specific cells, shows that the evolution of mitochondria took place much earlier than the chloroplasts.

How do both similarity and differences among amino acids allow them to form macromolecules with a wide variety of properties
ioda
The R group is what allows amino acids to form macromolecules with different properties. every amino acid has the same basic structure, the only difference is what the R group is made up of. The similarities allow the amino acids to form a chain while the differences allows them to have different functions. Hope this helped!
