Some similarities include:
1) Both animals and plants are involved
2) involves at least 1 parent

Some differences include:

Finch species living on the Galapagos Islands exhibit a variety of beak types that favor different foods. Finches that eat seeds

Setler [38]

Explanation:

<u>B) There is an abundance of seeds and nuts.</u>

The finches have developed adaptations to their environment. Their specialized beaks allow them to adequately exploit the available resources, by utilizing the more abundant food source.

Further Explanation:

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. To produce daughter cells during cell division, the chromosomes (total number of chromosomes (2n)) are copied before the cell splits into two daughter cells. This process is known as mitosis, and occurs in cell division and growth processes. Two new nuclei are formed, along with identical cells. These are the same as the parent cell and the chromosome number (2n) is maintained.

Conversely in meiosis, the number of chromosomes (2n) is halved through meiotic divisions, producing 4 (n) germ cells (sperm or eggs), each containing half the number of chromosomes as its parent cell. Crossing over, independent assortment, and random fertilization ensure genetic variation.

This variation refers to the genetic characteristics present within a species; they form new traits called alleles, which may confer adaptations that increase the fitness of a species, along with ensuring survival by conferring an advantage.

In the amoeba, water input and output are controlled by the _____. nucleus food vacuole vacuole pseudopodia

jarptica [38.1K]

The correct answer is vacuole. Vacuole controls the water input and water output of an amoeba. It is found within endoplasm. The vacuole is an essential part of an amoeba because it maintains the life of an amoeba. Malfunction can cause the amoeba to burst.
