The term that can be used to describe evolution by natural selection is SCIENTIFIC THEORY.

Theory means "the best explanation so far."

Scientific theory is a work in progress. It is <span>a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that is acquired through the scientific method, and repeatedly confirmed through observation and experimentation.

Why is the son who recieves the allele for colorblindness from his mother always colorblind?
Tanya [424]
Beacuse men only have one X chromosome so beacuse colourblindness is found on the X chromosome then if the X inherited from his mother contains the allele for colourblind then he will be colourblind. women have two X chromosomes so even if they inherit one colourblind allele then if the other X contains a normal vision allele then they will be able to see normally.

Insect wings may have begun to evolve as lateral extensions of the body that were used as heat dissipaters for thermoregulation.
jeyben [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b, that is, an exaptation.

Explanation:

The co-option or the associated term exaptation illustrates a shift in the activity of a trait at the time of evolution. For example, a trait can evolve as it performed one specific activity, however, afterwards, it may start to perform another function. It is common in both behavior and anatomy.  

A classic illustration of exaptation is feathers of birds, at the start they were evolved for monitoring temperature, however, afterwards they were amended for flight. Thus, if the given hypothesis is accurate than the modern wings of insects are an example of exaptation.  

Adaptive radiation refers to the diversification of an array of organisms to hold a distinct ecological niche. The origination of mutation takes place because of the errors in the replication of DNA. The hox genes in the insects assist them to specify that what appendages will get produced in a segment.

<u>The equation that shows the decomposition of silver carbonate are;</u>

2Ag2CO3 ---------> 4Ag + 2CO2 + O2

<u>From the periodic table:</u>

Mass of silver = 107.8682 grams

Mass of carbon = 12 grams

Mass of oxygen = 16 grams

Molar mass of Ag2CO3 = 2(107.8682) + 12 + 3(16) = 275.7364 grams

<u>From the balanced equation above:</u>

2(275.7362) = 551.4728 grams<em> of</em> Ag2CO3 <em>produces</em> 4(107.8682) = 431.4728 <em>grams of Ag</em>

<u>Thus, in order to know the mass of Ag produced from 2.76 grams of Ag2CO3, we'll use the cross multiplication method; </u>

Mass of Ag produced = (2.76 × 431.4728) / (551.4728) = <em>2.16 grams</em>

Based on the calculations demonstrated above, the law of conservation of mass is applied.
