How did Pangea breakup contribute to evolution

Biology

<span>If a geological barrier (like a continent splitting apart) separates a population of primates, then each population will evolve separately to fit the different conditions of their environments.

As a hypothetical example, if one part of Pangea went north, the primates on that part would adapt to cold temperatures. If the other part went toward the equator, those primates would adapt to heat and direct sunlight. Eventually they would evolve into different species over many generations.</span>

A variety of opium poppy (Papaver somniferum L.) having lacerated leaves was crossed with a variety that has normal leaves. All
Ainat [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is-

F1 -  AaBb (lacerate)

F2 - A_B_; A_bb; and aaB_ (lacerate)

     - aabb (normal)

2. Two genes, with a dominant allele at either or both loci.

Explanation:

The given information gives THE following data:

Dominant: Lancerate leaves - AABB

Recessive: normal leaves - aabb

F1 has - all Lacerated leaves - AaBb

F2 by selfing F1:

         AB               Ab         aB         ab

AB    AABB        AABb      AaBB    AaBb

Ab     AABb       AAbb      AaBb     Aabb

aB     AaBB       AaBb       aaBB     aaBb

ab     AaBb       Aabb       aaBb      aabb

Here, 15/16 = lacerate which is 0.94 which is equal to the value of lacerate given in the question - 249/265 = 0.94

And normal 1/16 = 0.062 is almost same as 16/265 = 0.060

Thus, the genotypes of -

F1 -  AaBb (lacerate)

F2 - A_B_; A_bb; and aaB_ (lacerate)

     - aabb (normal)

Discuss how the human immune system responds to an initial pathogenic exposure and how this initial exposure can lead to a quick
Serga [27]

Answer:

Immediately, the pathogen has been recognized:

Macrophages acts as the first line of defence by engulfing pathogens identified by antigens which will now present the antibody shape to a helper T cell.

The Helper T cells produce a signal to plasma and Memory B cells to yield antibodies that attach to the antigens. The cytotoxic cells that leads to cell death are activated by the helper T cells.

Antibodies helps to immobilize pathogen for macrophage to feed on.

if the pathogen comes back a 2nd time the memory cells helps in quick and efficient recovery by producing the specific B and T cells for the antigen.

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

When looking at a pedigree remember that:

  • squares are males
  • circles are females
  • the solid colored figure represents an individual affected by a disease
  • the empty figure represents a healthy individual

Let us assign the symbol X⁺ to represent the dominant allele linked to the X-chromosome and expressing healthiness, and X⁻ to represent the recessive allele expressing the dissease.

According to this pedigree

  • I1 is a man affected by the disease, YX⁻
  • I2 is a healthy woman X⁺X⁻
  • we can see that among the progeny (generation II) there are two individuals affected (a boy and a girl) and one healthy girl. This means that the mother I2 is heterozygous for the trait.

So, having their genotypes we can know what are the probabilities of getting a son with DMD

Parentals)    YX⁻     x     X⁺X⁻  

Gametes)   Y     X⁻      X⁺     X⁻

Punnett square)

                        X⁺             X⁻

            X⁻      X⁺X⁻         X⁻X⁻    

            Y        X⁺Y           X⁻Y

F1)

  • The probabilities of getting a healthy daughter X⁺X⁻ are 25%
  • The probabilities of getting a healthy son X⁺Y are 25%
  • The probabilities of getting a daughter with DMD X⁻X⁻ are 25%
  • The probabilities of getting a son with DMD X⁻Y are 25%

ValentinkaMS [17]

 The right option is Courtship

Courtship is a behavior in which different species interact and select their partners for mating which leads to reproduction. Most times, the female specie chooses the desired male to mate with before copulation.  Various behaviours such as display of strength, dancing and vocal utterance are often used during courtship. For the question given above,<span>the type of behavior displayed by the species of balloon flies is an example of courtship.
