Exaptation
Explanation:
In this example, the lateral extensions that developed were meant for thermoregulation.
But these became sufficiently large to support gliding through the air and later on were used for flight.
Thus the structure assumed a function for which it was not meant and its original function shifted to a completely different dimension giving rise to modern insect wings. So we can say that this is an example of Exaptation.
Theories basic to all of the life sciences include the cell theory because all living things are made up of cells.
Answer: 0.18
Explanation:
For the alleles, the percentage distribution of each is 'A' (90% = 0.9)
While 'a' (10% = 0.1)
Hence, 0.9 and 0.1 are the respective frequencies of each allele
Now, apply Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium equation, where heterozygotes are represented by the 2pq term.
Therefore, the number of heterozygous individuals (Aa) is equal to 2pq which equals
2 × 0.9 × 0.1 = 0.18
Thus, the frequency of heterozygote is 0.18, while the percentage distribution in the population is 18%
I think the answer would be 1,or 2
