Insect wings may have begun to evolve as lateral extensions of the body that were used as heat dissipaters for thermoregulation.

When they had become sufficiently large, these extensions became useful for gliding through the air. Additional selection refined them as flight-producing wines. If this hypothesis is correct, modern insect wings would be an example of _ .58) A) an adaptive radiation B) mutations C) the loss of Hox genes in the evolution of new form D) an exaptation

Answer:

Exaptation.

Explanation:

Evolution is the process of the the change in the characteristics of the species with respect to time. Natural selection, mutation and genetic drift is important for the evolution.

Exaptation may be defined as the biological phenomena that describe the development of the trait that has been co opted or co evolved other than the trait that has been selected for the natural selection. The flight producing wines is the extra trait that has been developed in the insects.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Explanation:

Electroplating involves the coating of one metal on another metal. It is an electrochemical process. The positive electrode is the coating metal while the negative electrode is the metal on which the coating is to be performed.

Since copper is to be coated on an iron nail. A copper plate is made the positive electrode while the iron nail should be the negative electrode.

The electrolyte used in the process should be a copper salt e.g CuSO4 solution.

As electrolysis progresses, the copper electrode(positive electrode or anode) gradually wears away due to the fact that the copper ions are going into the solution and are being deposited on the iron nail.
