Answer: All fingers, toes, feet, and palms are covered in small ridges. These are raised portions of the skin, arranged in connected units called dermal, or friction, ridges. They help us with our grip on objects that we touch. When these ridges press against things, they leave a mark, an impression called a fingerprint.
Explanation:
Answer:
diffusion through a selectively permeable membrane
Explanation:
The cell membrane selectively allows certain substances to enter or leave a cell . This implies that cell membranes are selectively permeable; they allow some substances to pass through, but not others.
Direct transport of materials across the cell membrane is often passive. Passive transport does not require energy to occur. Passive transport is the movement of substances from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. A concentration gradient is always required.
The diffusion through a selectively permeable membrane is an example of passive transport.
The iodine moves into the dialysis tube across the semi permeable cell membrane from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration in response to a concentration gradient.
Answer:
A. A low birth to death ratio
Explanation:
If people are dying quicker than they are being born, eventually you would have a very small population size.
Answer: A. mitosis
Explanation: Mitosis is used to produce daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cells. The cell copies - or 'replicates' - its chromosomes, and then splits the copied chromosomes equally to make sure that each daughter cell has a full set.
Hi
It is true that on the Galapagos islands Darwin observed tortoises with a dome and saddle shaped shells, you can see both in attached image.
Darwin observed that Galapagos Tortoises had the shells with different shapes depending on the Island they live, For example: The tortoises with saddle shaped shells were able to reach up to eat leaves of plants while the tortoises with dome shaped shells would not reach up and they would eat food from on ground sources. This made him think that the differences in tortoise shell is also a strong evidence that indicates that how tortoises have adapted themselves to better get their food as per the available resources and how they have evolved from same ancestral specie into two different species. This point also helped him in proposing the theory of evolution by natural selection.
Hope it helps!
