OK so basically the ice age had occurred during the Pleistocene it was about 2.6 billion years ago
Answer:
In the lab, I discovered the air pressure, air temperature, and relative humidity conditions that create snow, rain, thunderstorms, fog, and clear skies. I learned that low-pressure areas usually experience snowy, rainy, and stormy weather, and that high-pressure areas usually experience either foggy or sunny weather. Knowing how these atmospheric conditions influence weather help weather forecasters predict weather patterns through maps and other information.
The answer is (3) an increase in the proportion of offspring <span>that have favorable characteristics.
</span>In natural selection, genotype variations that will increase the chance of survival and reproduction of some organism are preserved and will be inherited. Peppered moth color variation is a good example of natural selection.<span>During the Industrial revolution, due to pollution, trees become darker in the urban area. Light-colored moths were, thus, easy prey. The dark-colored moths were able to camouflage on dark trees and avoid predators. The phenomenon is known as industrial melanism. So, in polluted urban areas, the number of dark-colored peppered moths increased. In the clean environment, were much effective in hiding from predators and they outnumbered the dark-colored moths.
Therefore, the </span>proportion of offspring <span>that have favorable characteristics in such environment will increase.</span>
Answer:
C) production of sperm and eggs
Explanation:
Sperms and eggs are the male and female gametes respectively. Formation of sperms and egg cells require meiotic cell division. Meiosis in sperm mother cells and egg mother cells reduces the chromosome number of half in the sperms and eggs. Meiosis also adds new gene combinations in these gametes by the process of crossing over.
Mitosis cannot reduce the chromosome number to half in the sperms and eggs. Absence of crossing over in mitosis leads to the formation of genetically identical progeny cells from mitosis.
Hence, mitosis can not form sperms and egg cells. If it does, the sperms and egg cells would not have genetic variations and there would be doubling of chromosome number with each round of sexual reproduction.
