3 0

Answer:

The type of fossil can show what the terrain was like.

Explanation:

Fossils can give information about past environmental conditions by showing the type of animal they belonged to. If a scientist found a whale fossil in a desert, he/she could assume that the desert was once an ocean as whales only live in oceans. If someone found a fossil of a lizard that inhabited trees,  in the middle of the ocean, then he/she could assume that the ocean didn't exist at one point and instead, there might have been a forest in it's place.

Hope this helps!

lara [203]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A. Merocrine gland

B. Apocrine gland

C. Salivary gland

D. Holocrine gland

Answer:

D. Holocrine gland

Explanation:

Exocrine glands are the organs or the subcellular structures which secrete a substance which is excreted out of the body.

The exocrine glands are different from the endocrine glands as their secreted products are released out of the body which is not in the case of endocrine glands.

The wax is secreted by the sebaceous glands by the production of cells that break along the base of the garland with substance into the ductal system by the exocrine glands called Holocrine glands.

Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.

Holocrine glands will release whole broken open cells into their ductal system. These cells contain the stores of substance to be released by the gland. This method of secretion requires frequent cell turnover and replacement.

When referring to cell division, oncogenes are most like ________ while tumor suppressor genes are most like ________. the brake
Inga [223]

Oncogenes are most like the gas pedal on a car, while tumor suppressor genes are most like the brakes on a car. Oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes are mutated in cancer cells.

Oncogenes are genes overexpressed in cells in which they should not be expressed, thereby leading to cancer.

Some examples of oncogenes are growth factors such as, for example, the  Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) or Epidermal growth factor (EGF).

Conversely, tumor suppressor genes are genes that act to regulate cell division and replication, thereby their inactivation also leads to cancer.

A well-known example of a tumor suppressor gene is the p53 gene that acts to control cell division and apoptosis (programmed cell death).

Determine the results from a cross of a mother who is heterozygous for tongue rolling with a father who is homozygous recessive
grandymaker [24]
In order to determine the results from a father who is homozygous recessive for the tongue rolling trait, T, and a mother who is heterozygous for the trait, a Punett square can be used to determine both the resulting genotype (allele combination) and phenotype (observable characteristics). The results are 50% Tt and 50% tt. Thus, the cross would result to 1:1 ratio of tongue rolling to non-tongue rolling offsprings.
