Answer:
a) Las raíces superficiales y extensas
c) El cuerpo carnoso de las plantas
d) Las hojas modificadas en forma de espina
Explanation:
En biología, una adaptación refiere al proceso de cambio evolutivo mediante el cual los organismos de una especie/taxón hacen frente a determinadas condiciones ambientales. Las plantas han desarrollado diferentes adaptaciones en ambientes desérticos a fin de evitar al máximo la pérdida de agua, el factor más limitante en este tipo de ambientes. Las plantas capaces de soportar largos periodos de sequías se denominan xerófitas. En primer lugar, además de servir como una buena defensa contra herbívoros, las hojas en forma de espina le permiten a una planta almacenar agua durante los períodos de precipitaciones. En segundo lugar, las raíces de plantas desérticas pueden disponerse superficialmente con el objetivo de absorber la mayor cantidad de agua posible. En tercer lugar, las plantas suculentas o crasas son aquellas que tienen tejidos carnosos los cuales pueden almacenar agua en sus hojas, tallos o raíces. Durante los periodos de lluvia leve, las suculentas almacenan grandes cantidades de agua para sobrevivir durante la temporada seca (incluso existen especies vegetales que sobreviven solamente durante la temporada húmeda y producen semillas que toleran la temporada seca).
We know that Hardy-Weinberg conditions include the following equations:
where 
And where p = dominant, and q = recessive; this means that 
is equal to the homozygous dominant, 
is the heterozygous, and 
is the homozygous recessive .
So we have 100 total cats, with 4 having the recessive white coat color. That means we have a ratio of 
or 0.04. Let that equal our 
value.
So when we solve for q, we get:
Now that we have our q value, we can use the other equation to find p:
So then we can solve for our heterozygous population:
This is the ratio of the population. So we then multiply this number by 100 to get the number of cats that are heterozygous:
So now we know that there are 32 heterozygous cats in the population.
The answer is choice C 50%
Answer:
d. Monosomy X is the only viable monosomy known to occur in humans.
Explanation:
Human have 22 pair of homologous chromosomoses and an extra pair of sex chromosomes. While in males the sex chromosomes are X and Y , females have two chromosomes X . Anyway, in normal conditions the total number of chromosomomes that humans have in their cells is 46 (23 pair of chromosomes).
Aneuploidy is a biological condition where an individual have an abnormal number of chromosomes in their cells. In humans for examples, this would be a human having more or less than 46 chromosomes.
The Turner syndrome also called monosomy X is an aneuploidy where one of the X chromosomes is missing in a female. Although under constant supervision, people with Turner syndrome have viable healthy lives. However this is the only monosomy that occur in humans that is compatible with life.
The complementary sequence of nucleotides found on the other strand of DNA is <u>ACGAAT</u> when one strand in a segment of a gene has the base sequence TGCTTA.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Deoxyribonucleic acid is the one which carries the genetic information from the parent to the offspring. During DNA replication one strand of DNA replicates to produce another strand.
The DNA molecule have a anti-parallel structure and the two strands run in opposite direction. If in one strand in a segment of a gene has the base sequence TGCTTA the complementary sequence of nucleotides found on the other strand of DNA will be ACGAAT.
