Because Darwin did not know about the work of Gregor Mendel, he could not explain how organisms pass heritable traits to their o
anastassius [24]

Explanation:

Both Darwin and Mendel proposed their theory at the same time but they never communicated with each other. They both explained the population and studied the variation between them and in them.

The variation within a population could be of two types: the discontinuous traits and the quantitative trait.

A discrete trait refers to a trait that is usually controlled by only one gene that is only two alleles or two variants are observed in the population whereas the quantitative trait is a trait that can be determined by more than one gene like the variation in height.

Help please I will give brainliest if it is a right and valid answer with atleast 2 sentences. Thanks so much
Olegator [25]

Explanation:

Lucille's cells need oxygen. In order for cells to properly function, they need to be oxidized. If Lucille's respiratory system is not working then her body cannot receive the oxygen that it needs in order to send to her blood cells. The circulatory system pumps Lucilles's blood around her body but if there is no oxygen, Lucille's cells/heart cannot properly function, this making it difficult for her to play soccer.

How do simple and complex sugars compare in their effect on your glycemic index?
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The glycemic index allows you to compare the ability of foods to increase blood sugar (glucose) levels. In general, simple carbohydrates have a medium to high glycemic index. In the case of complex carbohydrates, this varies.

Explanation:

The Glycemic Index (GI) is a measure that provides information on how quickly blood sugar levels rise after eating a certain food. Low glycemic index foods are those that have a low content of sugars or simple carbohydrates and that help regulate blood glucose levels, the consumption of foods with a low glycemic index has been proposed as a prevention and / or management factor of obesity, cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes mellitus and some types of cancer. Complex carbohydrates are made up of larger, more complex molecules and are found primarily in the form of starch and fiber. Foods high in fat or fiber are digested more slowly, so they also cause a slower rise in blood sugar. A food with a high GI raises blood sugar faster than foods with a medium or low GI. The GI is higher when foods do not contain fiber and they are easily digested, since they reach the bloodstream quickly, it is also higher if there is sugar or if cooking destroys part of the fiber and favors the digestion of food.
