Answer:
Iodine
Explanation:
Iodine is needed by animals because the body's metabolic rate is controlled by the action of an iodine hormone, called thyroxine, which is secreted by the thyroid gland in the neck.
If the animal fails to supply enough iodine through food to be able to make a normal amount of this compound, then the thyroid gland enlarges or expands trying to create enough, resulting in a common type of goiter.
I think it may be this but not quite sure
Lipids are primarily hydrophobic in nature, but there are a large variety of lipids such as fatty acids, mono-, di-, and triglycerides, for example (check wikipedia for more examples).
<span>Proteins are polymers of amino acids. </span>
<span>Nucleic acids are polymers of nucleotides.</span>
The order from what I remember is
Interphase
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
Cytokinesis- also known as daughter cells
Answer:
Option C
Explanation:
Option A is incorrect as mutations may be detrimental to the organism and are not always beneficial. Option B is incorrect as there are instances where mutations may enable organisms to be better adapted to the environment. Option D is incorrect as genotypes are not selected for or selected against by environmental pressures, it is only the phenotype (exhibitable/ visible traits) that can be selected for or against, hence option C is the answer.
Answer:
Stabilizing selection
Explanation:
The process of natural selection selects a species in one of the three ways: stabilizing selection, directional selection and disruptive selection.
During the process of stabilizing selection, nature does not favour the extreme phenotypes of the population but the intermediate phenotype with the maximum number of population.
In the given question, the Robin laid four eggs, neither more than four nor less than four which could have more disadvantages than the advantages. Since the intermediate number of eggs is favoured by nature therefore the stabilizing pattern is observed.
Thus, Stabilizing selection is correct.
