Yes! A recent example could be babies that do not survive child birth for a certain reason, are obviously unable to pass on whatever caused them to die in the first place.
Also, once humans started to domesticate cows and drink their milk (I'm not sure why humans drink a cow's milk) their bodies evolved to continue making the enzyme to digest milk even after they were weaned off their mothers milk. Many people of Asian descend do not have this enzyme, since their culture did/does not raise as much dairy product.
Answer:
The correct answer is "strengths: inexpensive, easy to culture, short life cycle, large number of offspring; weaknesses: invertebrate model, some diseases such as immunological cannot be modelled, anatomical features are very different from humans"
Explanation:
The fruit fly <em>Drosophila melanogaster</em> is one of the most used animal model for genetic and biomedical studies. There are many advantages of using Drosophila as model, including that it is very inexpensive to handle, it is easy to culture, it has a short life cycle allowing to observe the changes in phenotype very quickly and its large number of offspring allows to include several repetitions per trait in a study. However, there are some weaknesses of using Drosophila to study human biology. First, obviously the fruit fly is very different from humans, it is an invertebrate and its anatomical features are very different, which makes impossible to model some disorders such as immunological diseases.
Answer:
B)the energy required
Explanation:
The difference between active and passive transport is in the amount of energy they both require.
- Active transport requires energy to move molecules such as ATP and ions against a concentration gradient.
- Passive transport moves molecules from higher concentration region to one with lower concentration without requiring energy.
Energy is the ability to do work. In passive transport, energy is not used. But in active transport, energy is required.
