Vestigial traits are adaptations to environmental pressures which are no longer present.
homologous structures are similar structures found in different species that were present in a common ancestor.
analogous traits are similar traits found in different species that were developed independently (this process is known as convergent evolution)
Since ponds are typically shallower than lakes, this allows more sunlight to reach pond plants than lake plants. By getting my sunlight, these pond plants can photosynthesize more efficiently.
What goes in motion stays in motion, unless friction stops it
Answer:
the higher the diversity, the higher the populations of all the
photosynthetic organisms
Explanation:
Diversity in plant allows random mating also known as panmixia. It allows plant have equal chances of being mated too by any among them creating variations in the population. It leads to less fixed gene, reduce genetic drift leading to an increases population as some lethal gene may be lost due to recombination of gene among individual plant.
Where there is no diversity some gene becomes fixed leading to perpetuation of some traits that may be harmful in a population but diversity allows for the generation of new gene and allele frequency within a population.
Answer:
Ribose
Explanation:
DNA is a large molecule, a type of nucleic acid which store and act as a genetic material of the cell. DNA molecule is formed by the repeating monomer units called nucleotides.
Each nucleotide is made up of three subunits as:
1. 5-C sugar: De-oxyribose formed by the removal of oxygen group from 2' OH group of ribose. Ribose is the sugar molecule present in RNA nucleic acid.
2. Phosphate group (PO₄³⁻)
3. Nitrogenous bases: adenine, guanine, adenine and cytosine.
Thus, ribose is the correct answer.
