Molodets [167]3 years ago
5 0
The evolution of the peppered moth evolutionary  instance of directional colour change in the moth population as a consequence of air pollution during the Industrial revolution .The frequency of dark-coloured moths increased at that time, an example of industrial mellaniam. Later, when pollution was reduced, the light-coloured form again predominated. Industrial melanism in the peppered moth  was an early test of Charles Darwin natural selection  in action, and remains as a classic example in the teaching of evolution.

Starchy grain is dominant over sugary corn. If, in a cross between these types, 58 of the progeny are sugary, how many of the pr
DaniilM [7]

Let us solve first the phenotype of this problem.

Starchy grain = AA (dominant)

Sugary Corn = aa (recessive)

AA x aa = AaAa ; AaAa

<span>     A    A</span>

<span>a  Aa   Aa</span>

<span>a  Aa   Aa</span>

The result of the cross is that the progeny will become heterozygous.

<span>If there is 58 progeny sugary, there will also be 58 starchy. It is 50%.</span>

What do studies show about temperature tolerance of intertidal animals
Rom4ik [11]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The intertidal zone is a region of extreme conditions and the organisms should have special mechanisms to cope up with the extreme conditions. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Low tides expose an intertidal zone to air while high tides cover the intertidal zone with ocean water. When exposed to air the intertidal region is <em>directly exposed to the sun and there will be high temperature. </em>

Thus the animals have to cope up with the extreme heat and also have to face colder environment when under the sea.  <em>Since there is change in salinity the organisms have to handle this as well.</em>

Some animals with shells close their shell tightly to seal moisture. Animals like <em>snails and crabs have thick outer covering to prevent water loss by evaporation. </em>

Organisms like leaf barnacles cluster together to avoid individual exposure. <em>Animals like sea stars cling to the rocks to avoid being washed away by the waves. </em>

Eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus, whereas prokaryotic cells do not. In eukaryotes, the nucleus is just one of numerous membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotes, on the other hand, lack organelles that are attached to the membrane.
