Galapogos tortoises have a number of shell variations, shown right. What are the advantages of choosing a system examining the b

eaks of finches instead of the shells of tortoises? Check all that apply.
Birds have shorter lifespans, making generations shorter.

The bird population is likely much greater, allowing for more data.

Tortoises move too slowly for natural selection to influence shell phenotype.

Birds are easier to track and monitor.

Answer:

First, second, and last are correct statements.

For accuracy and reliability of any experiment, a number of observations must be as large as possible. It reduces the effect of any observation or any event which might have happened by chance or error.

Thus, finches were better to record observations as they were available in large number as compared to the tortoise.

In addition, the life cycle of birds is smaller as compared to the tortoise which enabled the scientists to observe more generations.

Lastly, the birds were easy to capture and track as compared to the tortoise. Tortoise being an amphibian could live on land as well as in water which made it difficult to track them.

What are the four biological compounds in living things?
sergejj [24]
There are more than simply 4 biological compounds in the human body. I suppose to categorise, the question is hinting towards the molecules like Carbohydrates ( Poly and mono saccharides ) Proteins ( Polypeptides Made of amino acids) and Fats. There is also water, but I'm hesitant to class that as a biological compound, as it's not organic.

2.01 Properties of Water Lab Report
IrinaK [193]

Answer: The main properties of water are its polarity, cohesion, adhesion, surface tension, high specific heat, and evaporative cooling.

Water has the unique ability to dissolve many polar and ionic substances. This is important to all living things because, as water travels through the water cycle, it takes many valuable nutrients along with it! Water has high heat capacity.

The Objective of the experiment, the hypothesis, the variables Like Independent Variable, Dependent, Variable, Controlled Variable

<span>The trick here is to understand the definition of each of the cellular transport or function mechanisms listed. These are some interesting (and strange) analogies!

Facilitated Diffusion
This is when a mechanism assists in diffusing (spreading) some material into an environment. The dog on the wagon going through a spring loaded door would shoot it out into the environment. This is an odd analogy but Point 3 would be the one.

Active Transport 
Is when energy is expended to transport molecules somewhere against a concentration gradient or some other barrier. Examples include transporting molecules across a cell wall. The best analogy is the dog being dragged into a bathtub (Point 1).

Phagocytosis 
This is when a larger cell consumes a molecule often like eating. This matches to point 2 - the child eating the doughnut.

Passive Diffusion
Is when a concentration of molecules naturally diffuse into an environment. This suits point 5 - the crowded room full of people.

Pinocytosis
Is the budding of cell membranes to consume liquid in the surrounding environment. I guess a woman drinking tea is the closest analogy listed (Point 4).</span>

mr_godi [17]

Character displacement differs from resource partitioning because character displacement  is directly linked to the evolution of genotypes that have allowed alternate resource use

<h3>What is genotypes ?</h3>

An organism's genotype is made up of all of its genetic components. The alleles or variations that an individual carries in a specific gene or genetic region are also referred to as the genotype. The number of copies of each chromosome found in that species, also known as ploidy, determines how many alleles a person can have for a certain gene.

In diploid organisms like humans, there are two complete sets of chromosomes, which means that each person has two alleles for each gene. Homozygous refers to a genotype when both alleles are the same. Heterozygous refers to a genotype when there are two distinct alleles.

Phenotype, the observable qualities and attributes of an individual or creature, is influenced by genotype.

To learn more about genotypes  from the given link:
