Answer:

Due to DDT ban

Explanation:

DDT is an pesticide or insecticide which got banned because of its harmful effect in environment.

According  to the graph the eggshell of both the bird species A and B are thick in 1930 but begin to thin after 1940 as DDT (Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) introduced in the ecosystem.

Eggshell return to their original thickness by 1980 because DDT got banned after 1970. DDT is a harmful pesticide which alter the bird's calcium metabolism which leads to thin eggshells.

Hence, due to banning of DDT after 1970,egg shell of either species return to their original thickness by 1980.

A woman who is a carrier for colour blindness (X-linked recessive) has children with a man who has normal colour vision. A. What
viva [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Genotype of the  woman is XCbXN

The man XNY

Since the allele for the color blindness is carried on one of the X -chromosomes of the  carrier mother, then  the male children will be color blind or carrier deopending on the defective gene they inherited. Since they will receive the defective or normal  allele from the  mothers,but the female will carriers or normal because they will inherit either defective allele or normal allele from the mother,but normal  X allele from the father.

Assuming the colorbind gene was inherited by One of the boys, and the girls take the defective genes

1. XNY vs XCbXN.Then the one of the  boys will be colorblind  and the one of  girls will be carriers. XNXCb, XNXN, XCbY,XNY  50 %

2.If the two boys take the effective genes from the mothers. and none of the girls take the defective alelle

Then the two boys will be colorblind and the girls will be carrries XcbY,XcbY and XNXN XNXN.(normal girls).

The proportions that will be  the females  since the girls can only take the defective allele from one of the normal and defective allele from the mother. Assuming the girls  take the defective allele from the mothers and take normal from the father,they will all  be carriers,since the X of the father is normal.

They can not have a color blind girl.Since the father is normal It takes two colorblind X-chromosome to give a girl.

To trace our maternal lineage, we observe mutations that have accumulated in our mitochondrial dna (mtdna). in the dna isolation
Sergio [31]
In the coding region, natural selection tends to eliminate all of the mutations because of the high importance these regions have. The coding region contains genes that synthesize proteins and the changes in the DNA sequence can have devastating effects on the cell. Therefore, there are very few differences in the sequences of coding regions that can help us trace the lineage.
On the other hand, in the non-coding regions, the mutations often accumulate because they have little effect on the cell and the adaptive value of the organism. This enables us to trace up the lineage by comparing the sequences and seeing the differences in the sequences.

The bones in a bird are hollow, reducing its weight for flight. This is an example of which characteristic of life?
dimulka [17.4K]

The bones in a bird are hollow, reducing its weight for flight, this is an example of ADAPTATION. The adaptive responses emerge as a consequence of different environmental pressures.

<h3>Adapatation and environment</h3>

Adaptation is an evolutionary process by which organisms adjust to the environment in which they live.

For example, the bones in a bird are hollow because this adaptive feature enables them to fly.

Adaptations are a consequence of the process of natural selection, i.e., the differential survival and reproduction of the fittest organisms.
