Hey there!

We know that a desk is not really huge as to use a meter, or a yard. But, when speaking about both feet and centimeters, that's when you may what to think a little bit.

I would suppose that using feet would also be to much also. Desk's run in sizes to a couple feet, maybe like 3 to 4 feet, therefore, that would not be our option.

Your answer: centimeters

Reason: Using centimeters, which they are small, they would be a better use of using this, mainly because you could get into more detail, as they are more smaller.

Answer:

Living organisms are adapted to their environment. This means that the way they look, the way they behave, how they are built, or their way of life makes them suited to survive and reproduce in their habitats. For example, giraffes have very long necks so that they can eat tall vegetation, which other animals cannot reach. The eyes of cats are like slits. That makes it possible for the cat's eyes to adjust to both bright light, when the slits are narrow, and to very dim light, when the slits are wide open.

Behavior is also an important adaptation. Animals inherit many kinds of adaptive behavior. In southern Africa there are small animals called meerkats, which live in large colonies. The meerkats take turns standing on their hind legs, looking up at the sky to spot birds of prey. Meanwhile, the meerkats in the rest of the colony go about their lives. You can probably think of many other features of body or behavior that help animals to lead a successful life.

In biology, an ecological niche refers to the overall role of a species in its environment. Most environments have many niches. If a niche is "empty" (no organisms are occupying it), new species are likely to evolve to occupy it. This happens by the process of natural selection.

Many fossils of different kinds of horses have been discovered, and paleontologists think that the earliest ancestor of the modern horse lived in North America more than 50 million years ago. This animal was a small padded-foot forest animal about the size of a dog. If you saw one next to a modern horse, you might not even think the two were related! As time passed, the climate of North America became drier, and the vast forests started to shrink. Grasses were evolving, and the amount grassland was increasing. Horses adapted to fill this new grassland niche. They grew taller, and their legs and feet became better adapted to sprinting in the open grasslands. Their eyes also adapted to be further back on their heads to help them to see more of the area around them. Each of these adaptations helped the evolving grassland horses to avoid predators. Their teeth also changed to be better adapted to grinding tough grassland vegetation.

Hitchhiker's thumb (H) is dominant to no hitchhiker's thumb (h). A woman who does not have hitchhiker's thumb marries a man who
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

Genotypic ratio of offsprings will be: 1 (Hh) : 1 (hh)

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for the possession or not of Hitchhiker's thumb in humans. The allele that codes for Hitchhiker's thumb (H) is dominant over the allele for no hitchhiker's thumb (h).

Based on this question, if woman who does not have hitchhiker's thumb (hh) marries a man who is heterozygous for hitchhiker's thumb (Hh) i.e. hh × Hh, the following gametes will be produced by each parent:

hh - h and h

Hh - H and h

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the offsprings with the following genotypic ratio will be likely produced:

1 (Hh) : 1 (hh)

N.B:

- Two (2) of them were Hh i.e. with Hitchhiker's thumb

- The other two were hh i.e. no hitchhiker's thumb.
