Answer:

1. Adaptive radiation: A pattern of evolution in which slightly different species evolve from one common ancestor.

2.  Coevolution: A  pattern of evolution in which two species evolve in relation to each other.

3. Convergent evolution:  A pattern of evolution in which similar characteristics evolve between two unrelated species.

4. Divergent evolution: A pattern of evolution in which very different species evolve from one common ancestor.

5. Gradualism:  A theory of evolution that states that a species evolves by consistent, small, steps.

6. Punctuated equilibrium: A theory of evolution that states that a species evolves in spurts of rapid change and then no change.

• Adaptive radiation - a pattern of evolution in which slightly different species evolve from one common ancestor  

For example -  Evolution of mammals after the extinction of dinosaurs.

• Co evolution - a pattern of evolution in which two species evolve in relation to each other  

For example – Development of flowering plant and associated insects or pollinators  

• Convergent evolution - a pattern of evolution in which similar characteristics evolve between two unrelated species  

For example – similar function of  flight or wings of insects, birds and bats

• Divergent evolution - a pattern of evolution in which very different species evolve from one common ancestor  

For example – different types of beaks of finches

• Gradualism - a theory of evolution that states that a species evolves by consistent, small, steps  

For example – evolution of tigers to develop better line marks on their body

• Punctuated equilibrium - a theory of evolution that states that a species evolves in spurts of rapid change and then no change

__________ is/are defined as a group of potentially breeding organisms within a species in a given space and time.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

Population.

Explanation:

Population may be defined as the smallest unit of ecology and the evolution might occur at the population level.

Population is the group of the organisms that belong to the particular species and lives in a specific particular habitat. The individual of the population breeds among themselves. Sometimes the individual of two different population can also breed among themselves in extreme cases.

Thus, the answer is population.

8-3 Mechanisms of Transport. For each of the following statements, answer with a D if the statement is true of simple diffusion,
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

(a) Requires the presence of an integral membrane protein -F

(b) Solutes move down their free energy gradient in the direction of thermodynamic equilibrium - N

(c) Is not subject to saturation - N

(d) Requires the hydrolysis of

ATP - A except secondary active transport

(e) Is a way of establishing a difference in the concentration gradient of solutes across a membrane - D

(f) Applies only to small, nonpolar solutes - D

(g) Applies only to ions - A

(h) Transport can occur in either direction across the membrane, depending on the prevailing concentration gradient - D

(i) Has a positive G(Gradient) - D

(j) Usually has intrinsic directionality

Explanation:

Simple Diffusion is the movement of solutes from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane.

When then is through a transmenbrane integral protein, it is a facilitated diffusion

Active transport uses chemicals (e.g ATP) to move ions against the concentration gradient (Lower to Higher concentration).

They are two types(Primary and Secondary Active transport). Secondary active transport do not require ATP

Which statement is true regarding DNA?
Katarina [22]
<span>The true statement regarding DNA is A) contains deoxyribose sugar. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) consists of two strands of nucleotides joined by hydrogen bonds. Each nucleotide contains nucleobase (adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine), a sugar deoxyribose, and a phosphate group. The fact that it contains the deoxyribose sugar was the reason the molecule is called deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA.</span>
