Answer:

The correct answer is "Both secrete mucus".

Explanation:

Goblet cells are specialized cells found mainly in the epithelial lining of intestinal and respiratory tracts, which main function is to secrete mucus by secreting gel-forming mucins. On the other hand, cilia is a protuberance found in cells that serves as a sensory organelle, which can have motility. One characteristic that cilia and goblet cells have in common is that both secrete mucus. Cilia is found in airway cells and helps to move mucus up and out of the lungs.

True or false: Theoretically, it is possible (but very difficult) for a population to not evolve for a while.
Debora [2.8K]

It is true that it is possible for a population to not evolve for a while.

There is something called the Hardy-Weinberg theorem, which characterizes the distributions of genotype frequencies in populations that are not evolving.

There are 5 Hardy-Weinberg assumptions:

  • no mutation
  • random mating
  • no gene flow
  • infinite population size
  • and no selection (natural nor forced).

You can see that some of these are kinda extreme and really hard to get, but with approximations, we can work.

For example, instead of an "infinite population size" we have enough with a really large population, such that genetic drift is negligible.

Concluding, yes, it is possible (but really difficult) for a population to not evolve for a while (at least, in nature), as long as the 5 assumptions above are met.
