<span>1. List five observations Darwin made about the Amblyrhynchus lizards.
a. They measure about 2-3 feet long.
b. They are cold-blooded.
c. They feed on crab and sea lion feces.
d. They are the only marine iguanas in the world.
e. Their nostrils are connected to salt glands that allow them to expel excess sea salt.
</span><span>2. Describe two examples of structural adaptations that Darwin observed.
a. </span><span>Darwin discovered that finches in the Galapagos have thirteen different kinds of beaks.
b. </span>Darwin observed two kinds of giant tortoises that are distinguished by the shapes of their carapaces (dome-shaped and saddle-shaped).
3. <span>Describe two behavioral adaptations that Darwin observed.
</span>
a. <span>The marine iguanas have developed several ways of coping with the cold. At night, they huddle together for warmth.
b. </span>In the face of famine, the marine iguanas have adapted by having the ability to shrink their body size. They are able to grow back to their original size once the food is supply increases.
4. <span>Explain how these observations influenced his theory of evolution?
</span>
These observations led Darwin to believe that if a certain trait is more advantageous in a specific environment, then the carriers of that trait are more likely to survive into adulthood and to generate offspring than those who do not have that trait. Eventually, the advantageous traits for a species will proliferate. Darwin later called this as "survival of the fittest".
Answer:
DNA replication is the process by which a double-stranded DNA molecule is copied to produce two identical DNA molecules. Replication is an essential process because, whenever a cell divides, the two new daughter cells must contain the same genetic information, or DNA, as the parent cell.
Thats one thing ;)
The abbreviations for a tetragram, a nanosecond and a kiloliter are as follows:
Tg ,ns and kl.
Nanosecond is *10-9.
One teragram is ten raised to the power of 9 and one kiloliter is equivalent to one thousand liters.
Explanation:
diffusion is movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration
2a)molecules will be moving out of the cell
b)molecules will be moving into the cell
3i)molecules will be moving into the cell
ii)molecules will be moving out of the cell
iii)there is no movement since concentration is equal inside and outside the cell
The environmental effects of harmful practices on private property are not essentially restricted to private property, it can also affect public property. Water polluted on private property might stream down into a local river or an aquifer used for public purposes like drinking water or for recreational parks (swimming pools). Landowners who slaughter travelling animals on their property are putting an end to creatures that are part of a bigger ecosystem; the loss of these animals will affect all the ecosystems along the migration route.
