The correct answer is letter A.

The number of long-finned fish will increase overtime. This is because they have the adaptive behavior to escape from their predators. As a result, they will be able to reproduce more and produce offsprings in great numbers therefore increasing their population through time.

Explain how chromosome behavior during meiosis ensures transfer of parental traits to offspring
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Explanation:

During meiosis, sister chromosomes of a homologous pair separate into different cells during gamete formation . This mainly occurs in Metaphase I of meiosis where the homologous chromosomes line up the metaphase plate in their sets. Each chromosomes of a pair are then pulled to different poles of the cells separating them. Each of these chromosomes carries a set of alleles of a gene. Each cell/gamete, therefore, carried half the set of alleles of all genes compared to autosomal cells. There many combinations of these sets that can occur depending on the number of chromosomes the organism has.

These cells when combined with that of another parent during fertilization, form a zygote that grows and develops into a mature organism. The offspring will bear the characteristics of both parents because it inherits half a set of chromosomes from both parents.

From which part of the pituitary are hypothalamic hormones such as antidiuretic hormone (adh) and oxytocin released?
tatyana61 [14]
<span>The correct answer is posterior pituitary.</span>

ADH (AntiDiuretic Hormone) or Vasopressin is a peptide hormone which is produced in the hypothalamus. ADH is released from vesicles inside the cells of posterior pituitary into the circulation. ADH is released as a response of hyperosmolality of extracellular fluid. It increases the reabsorption of water in kidneys and constricts the blood vessels.

Oxytocin is also peptide hormone produced by the hypothalamus and released by the posterior pituitary. It has a role in sexual reproduction.
