Answer;
-Chitin is a structural carbohydrate that forms their exoskeleton
Explanation;
-Chitin is the main component in the exoskeletons of arthropods and crustaceans and is also in the cell walls of fungi.
-It is a linear long chain polymer consisting of repeated units of N-acetyl-glucosamine.
-The main function of the chitin-containing exoskeleton is to keep the inner soft tissue safe from any sort of injury and also prevents the delicate tissues from drying (acts as a water tight barrier against dehydration).
Answer:
Suffling of genetic material increases genetic variation in offspring which is important for evolution.
Explanation:
Genetic shuffling or genetic recombination helps in the formation of new trait combinations which increase the genetic variation in the population and this genetic variation is very much important for the evolution of species.
In sexual reproduction, the genetic shuffling occurs during the formation of gametes when the two homologous chromosomes exchange their genetic material with each other. This increase variation in gametes.
Fusion of two different gametes in sexual reproduction also helps in increasing the genetic variation in the offspring.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Scientific notation is the use of x x 10^x to write very large numbers in a shorter form.
Answer:
Prezygotic barriers:
1. Habitat isolation
2. Behavioral isolation
Explanation:
Pre-zygotic barriers are the barriers which do not allow the formation of the zygote in the organisms.
The two mechanisms of the pre-zygotic barriers are the:
1. Habitat isolation: the Flycatchers do not share the same habitat which is also mentioned in the question that they live on different islands.
2. The behavioural isolation: the Flycatchers could have evolved the different mating rituals as a result of which the could not interbreed.
Thus, Habitat isolation and Behavioral isolation are correct.
