Reclassification of fungi

Explanation:

Fungi were classified under kingdom plantae by the earlier taxonomists due to their similarities. Both of them were grown on the ground and fixed to the ground, they do not move, fungi like plants also produced fruiting bodies.

However, there were many physiological, morphological, genetic, and biochemical features which were unique and different from other kingdoms.

Although, the fungi contain similar features like vacuoles, secondary metabolites, myecelial root-like structures; fungi like plants do not have a complete vascular system.

Hence, the previous classification under plants was reconsidered and fungi were reclassified as a separate kingdom next to the protists and before the plantae kingdoms.

g Indium has two naturally occurring isotopes: 113In with an atomic weight of 112.904 amu, and 115In with an atomic weight of 11

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Fraction-of-occurrences of 115In isotope $= 0.957$

Explanation:

As we know weight of 113 In isotope is equal to the sum of product of fraction-of-occurrences of two constituents isotopes and their atomic weight

$^{115}In_w = f_{113}*A_{113} + f_{115}*A_{115}$ ------(1)

As we know sum of fraction-of-occurrences of two constituents isotopes is equal to one.

$f_{113} + f_{115} = 1\\f_{113} = 1- f_{115}$ ---------(2)

Substituting the given values in equation 1, we get

$^{115}In_w = f_{113}*A_{113} + f_{115}*A_{115}\\114.818 = (1 - f_{115}) * 112.904 + f_{115} * 114.904\\f_{115} = 0.957$

Substituting this value in equation 2 we get -

$f_{113} = 1- f_{115}\\f_{113} = 1- 0.957 \\f_{113} = 0.043$

Need help ASAP:( What is the relationship among evolutionary mechanisms and genetic diversity?

marishachu [46]

Answer:Evolution and diversity result from the interactions between organisms and their environments and the consequences of these interactions over long periods of time. Organisms continually adapt to their environments, and the diversity of environments that exists promotes a diversity of organisms adapted to them.

The biological levels of organization range from a single cell all the way up to the biosphere in a highly structured hierarchy.

ELEN [110]

Answer:

B) Tissue is made of different types of cells.

D) Organs are made of different types of tissue.

Explanation:

The tissues are made of different types of cells. The organs are also made of different types of tissue. There is no need of same types of tissues to make organs. Thus, option (B) and (D) is correct answer.
