The pulmonary veins transport oxygenated blood back to the heart from the lungs, while the pulmonary arteries move deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs.)
Answer:
An organism which has two different alleles of the gene is called heterozygous. Phenotypes (the expressed characteristics) associated with a certain allele can sometimes be dominant or recessive, but often they are neither.
Answer:
It is possible to compare the expression of homologous genes in the brain of <em>D. melanoganster</em> and humans, because the expression levels of conserved genes may be associated with the evolution of cognitive features such as complex learning and memory.
Explanation:
Model organisms can be used to understand the patterns and processes that affect human evolution. <em>Drosophila melanogaster </em>is a model organism that has been used to study expression patterns of conserved genes in the course of evolution. This model organism has also been used to develop genetic mutant lines in order to examine the role of genes evolutionarily conserved in animals, including those involved in neurocognitive development.
In genetic research, an experiment as the above described is framed in a research field named 'Behavioral Genetics', which is a discipline that studies how evolutionarily conserved gene networks may be associated with neurocognitive tasks during brain evolution.
Correct answer: C). Cells are the basic building blocks of life but do not constitute life itself
Cell theory in a biology is a scientific theory, which is universally accepted and it states that all living organism are made up of one or more cells, cell is the building block of living thing, it also states that all cell arise from ore existing cells.
The cell theory is collection of ideas and conclusion, which were given after many years of continuous research and experiment of many scientist, which tells about the cell and how it operates.
An ectotherm gets its heat from external sources
(Remember "ecto" means outer, "endo" means inner)
