When we look at islands across the planet (think the islands of the galápagos and hawaii) we see that there are a remarkable num

ber of island endemic species, species that are found nowhere else. what is a possible explanation for this observation? island isolation promotes allopatric speciation. vicariance events are more common on islands than in mainland environments. extinction rates are lower in islands so species that have gone extinct elsewhere persist on islands. sympatric speciation on islands is easier than in mainland environments because rates of chromosomal evolution are higher on islands. sympatric speciation on islands is easier than in mainland environments because levels of disruptive selection are higher on islands?

There are number of endemic species, because island isolation promotes allopatric speciation and the latter occurs when species become separated from each other to the level that prevents genetic recombination.

Imagine a population of rabbits with fur color that ranges from black to white. If this population were put in an area that has
Molodets [167]

The correct answer is option (C) Gray rabbits would be eliminated by predators.

Camouflage is an adaptation by organisms allowing them to blend with the environment. This helps them in surviving or escaping from their predators. It can be throught coloration or developing a particular pattern or mimicry.

The example given above is a type of camouflage through concealing coloration. Concealing coloration includes having a fixed camouflage and changing the camouflage depending on the environment. Grey rabbits cannot exhibit camouflage as the backgroud is dark rocks and light stones. As a result, these rabbits are clearly visible to the predators and get elimiated by them.

Which of the following is true of retroviruses? (3 points)
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

A retrovirus is an RNA virus that is duplicated in a host cell using the reverse transcriptase enzyme to produce DNA from its RNA genome. The DNA is then incorporated into the host’s genome by an integrase enzyme. The virus thereafter replicates as part of the host cell’s DNA. Retroviruses are enveloped viruses that belong to the viral family Retroviridae. A special variant of retroviruses are endogenous retroviruses, which are integrated into the genome of the host and inherited across generations. Endogenous retroviruses are a type of transposon.

Frozen red blood cells that have been thawed, deglycerolized and reconstituted in an open system must be used within _______.
horsena [70]

Frozen red blood cells that have been thawed, deglycerolized and reconstituted in an open system must be used within 24 hours.

Cryopreservation of Red blood cells (RBCs) can be done with a long time span of usability of 10 years. Glycerol safeguards RBCs during freezing and defrosting, yet it can cause hemolysis if it is not washed off or eliminated before transfusion. When a unit has been deglycerolized, the shelf life of RBCs in an open system is only 24 hours, bringing about sporadic utilization of Frozen RBCs from the outset of the procedure or in close system cases it is up to 14 days.
