Information is not passed on through DNA but through molecules having an influence on the DNA of the new generation.
This is one argument against Lamarck's ideas.

He thought they changed from simple organisms to more complex organisms because they had an innate drive to become more complex and "perfect."  Lamarck thought that when organisms changed their behaviors in response to a changing environment, their bodies changed. When they used a part of their bodies more, it changed accordingly. When they used a part of their bodies less, it shrank.

The key to the evolution of altruism is that a. recipients have to be more likely to carry the altruistic allele than nonrecipie
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. actors have to be more likely to carry the altruistic allele than non actors.

Explanation:

Altruism is the behavior by an organism that benefits other organisms by costing its own fitness. The actor is the individual who is doing altruism and the recipient is the individual who is getting benefited by the actor's altruism.

An example of altruistic behavior can be seen in animal kingdom easily. Vampire bats give blood to those members of the community who were not able to go for search for blood show altruistic behavior.

Actors have altruistic genes that suggest them to behave altruistically. Non-actors may not contain alleles of altruism but the recipient might have altruistic alleles.

Hamilton's rule says that natural selection will favor the altruistic allele when rb > c.

where r = coefficient of relatedness between donor and recipient

          b = benefit received by recipient and

          c = cost paid by altruist.

Therefore, the correct answer is b.

Answer:

Competition for food happens when there is a limited amount of food resources available. The members of a species that eat that food who are best adapted to access the food are more likely to reproduce and pass on their genes to the next generation.

For example, we have a bird feeder with a narrow opening for food. The small-headed birds can reach the food, the bigger-headed birds cannot. If this was the only food source for this area, then over time, there would be more smaller-headed birds than large-headed birds, due to the competition for food and success/lack of success.

Write a paragraph on what is biology​
schepotkina [342]
Biology is the study of living organisms, divided into many specialized fields that cover their morphology, physiology, anatomy, behavior, origin, and distribution.


This is basically the definition of biology, so you may need to add a little more detail. This is a great way to get it started though!!!

Hope this helps!!

6. (50 points) EXPLAIN all of the tree trimming steps in order as if you were discussing a job with a
stiks02 [169]

Step one: Travel approximately 18 inches up the underside of the branch you are removing. Cut up about halfway through the branch.

Step two: Move to the top side of the branch. Choose a location an inch further out from your first cut. Carefully cut down until the branch breaks free.

Step three: Find the branch collar on your trunk. This is stem tissue around the base of the branch. . Make a complete cut with a 45-degree angle kicking out from the base of the tree.

Oxygenated blood flows from the __________ to the __________ before being pumped into the systemic circulation.
jeka94

Answer: from the pulmonary veins into the left atrium.

Explanation:

After oxygenation of blood in the lungs, the right and left pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood and empties it into the left atrium. The left atrium then empties the blood into the left ventricle through the left atrioventricular valve.

With contraction, the ventricle pumps the blood to the systemic circulation through the aorta. The blood flow into the aorta is guarded by the aortic valve.
