Answer:

The correct answer would be "The female cone releases its seeds and new sporophytes grow".  

Conifers are sporophytes with two types of cones; pollen cones and ovulate cone.

The pollen cones are smaller in size and produce microspores which would develop into the pollen grains.

The ovulate cones are larger in size which produce megaspores which would develop into ovule.

The two gametes fertilized to produce a diploid zygote which develops into the embryo.

The fertilization takes place in the ovule and thus, embryo or seed is developed in the female cone.

The female cone then releases its seed which grows into a new sporophyte.

The gene that causes sickle-cell disease is present in a higher percentage of residents of sub-Saharan Africa than among those o
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Ans.

Sickle-cell disorder shows defected red blood cells, due to mutation in gene that code for hemoglobin. The mutated genes for sickle-cell disease are found in higher percentage of sub-Saharan African population as it provides protection against malaria as compared to population of United States.

Malaria is common in sub-Saharan Africa region and there, natural selection favored gene for sickle cells, because it might be beneficial to people having sickle cell disease that makes them able to survive in such condition and transmit their genes to offspring.

On the other hand, in those Africans, who moved to United States, where malaria is uncommon or absent, natural selection favored normal, wild type genes, resulting in fewer people with defected sickle cell.

Thus, the evolutionary process behind this is 'natural selection.'

Part 3- Discussion You must answer this in a minimum of 8 complete sentences.
Kruka [31]

I think most of the environmental pressure will come from pollution, and a lack of space. With so many people around, there''s going to be a lot of vehicle use, and things such as littering. We're going to have to change and start cleaning up after ourselves and limit the use of gas.

The pressure in the past will be: raising temperature and flooding, more Co2 in the atmosphere.

We might for example evolve to better extract the oxygen from the atmosphere and be better resistant to heat.

Answer: I believe that the environmental pressures that exist now and that may be shaping the human species are the use of land, the extraction of resources, greenhouse emissions and water use. This are being used by use more and more as we start overpopulating the earth.
