<h2>Postulates of natural selection</h2>
Explanation:
- Early in development, all vertebrate embryos are remarkably similar. The similarities among the embryos imply that the development of all vertebrates (having a backbone) evolved as new genetic instructions were placed on Top of older ones.
- The chick embryo is on the right. It is easier to compare a newly hatched chick and a newborn baby. After birth, a backbone or vertebrae are clearly visible, as are legs, a mouth, a pair of eyes, etc. The chick’s Skeletal system, in general, has multiple similarities to ours, including having one bone in the upper leg and upper wing and two bones in the lower leg and lower wing. This mimics our arm and leg skeletal structures.
- Mammals, birds, reptiles, and fish, look very similar at the earliest stages of growth inside the womb of the mother animal.Vertebrate embryos begin developing similar features due to related ancestors. As the embryo grows, it may drop some of these ancestral traits as the genetic code becomes more specific for that species.
Answer:
1. 1/2
2. 1/2
3. 1/4
Explanation:
Let the allele for freckles be A or a while that of dimples be B or b.
A person without freckles but heterozygous for dimples = aaBb
A person who has freckles (whose mother has no freckles) but no dimples = Aabb
aaBb x Aabb
Offspring
4 AaBb - freckled and dimpled
4 Aabb - freckled and non dimpled
4 aaBb - non freckled and dimpled
4 aabb - non freckled and non dimpled
1. <em>Probability that the parents will have a dimpled child</em> = 8/16 or 1/2
2. <em>Probability that they will have a child with freckles</em> = 8/16 or 1/2
3. <em>Probability that they will have a child with freckles and dimples</em> = 4/16 or 1/4

<span>Geologists generally know the age of a rock by determining the age of the group of rocks, or formation, that it is found in. The age of formations is marked on a geologic calendar known as the geologic time scale. Development of the geologic time scale and dating of formations and rocks relies upon two fundamentally different ways of telling time: relative and absolute.</span>
Answer:
The correct answer is option b. gonadotropin-releasing hormone.
Explanation:
The GnRH or the gonadotropin-releasing hormone is a releasing hormone that releases from the neurons of the hypothalamus. This releasing hormone is responsible for the secretion of the luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone.
GnRH regulates both gonadotropin hormones, in which, LH (luteinizing hormone) responsible for the regulation of the male reproductive system and FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) responsible for the female reproductive system and sperm production in testes in males.
Thus, the correct answer is option B. gonadotropin-releasing hormone.
