EXPLAIN PLEASE The male pom-pom monkey of the island of Hoi Polloi has evolved to have long bright puffs of turquoise fur all ar

ound his neck. The female pom-pom monkey has no pom-poms and, in fact, no turquoise fur at all. Using the pom-pom monkeys as your example, describe how natural selection has affected the male pop-pom monkey population over thousands of generations.

Answer:

Through natural selection, organisms carrying better traits to survive in an ecosystem are able to survive and pass on their characteristics to their offspring. Through evolution, the allelic frequency of the population changes in abundance of the traits which are favoured by natural selection. As the male pom-pom monkeys carrying  long bright puffs of turquoise fur all around his neck had a better adaptation to survive on the island hence, they were favoured by natural selection and through evolution all long bright puffs of turquoise fur all around his neck evolved.

Damm [24]

Answer:

B

Explanation: The specific heat of any particular substance is usually defined as the amount of heat energy that is required to raise a unit mass of the material by 1°C. The water has this high heat capacity as a result of which the water bodies such as oceans, seas, and lakes tend to become hot and cold at a much slower rate.

Which allele for human blood type is recessive?
sergij07 [2.7K]

Blood type doesn't fall into the category of dominant/recessive genes exactly; rather it combines this with the properties of incomplete dominance. Ignoring the Rh factor, there are 3 alleles for blood type, I^a,I^b, and i. You will be type A if you have I^a I^a or I^a i and type B if you have I^b I^b or I^b i. You can also get type AB by having the combination I^a I^b or be type O if you have i i. If you need to use dominant/recessive, you can say the A and B allele are dominant over the O allele and codominant with one another.

What is true of matter in ecosystems?
Sidana [21]
D.Elements continuously cycle between the physical environment and living organisms.

Ecosystem is encompassing all the life on earth in the physical environment that supports it. An ecosystem involves both the biological (plants, animals, human beings) and non-biological (land, water, soil, and atmosphere) community which interacts as a system. More importantly, the living things are very dependent on the abiotic community since it cannot survive by itself. Every animal, plant and human needs the primary physiological needs of water, food and shelter provided by the abiotic system.  <span> </span>

Reil [10]
If a woman takes HIV medicines during pregnancy and childbirth and her baby receives HIV medicines for 4 to 6 weeks after birth, the risk of transmitting HIV can be lowered to 2% or less. Most HIV medicines are safe to use during pregnancy, and don't increase the risk of birth defects.

In general, the infected mother should simply stay healthy and intake HIV medicines while she is pregnant.

Do some cows some (acquire/inherit) traits that make them have more muscles compared to other cows.
just olya [345]

Answer:

Explanation:

Molecular biology has enabled the identification of the mechanisms whereby inactive myostatin increases skeletal muscle growth in double-muscled (DM) animals. Myostatin is a secreted growth differentiation factor belonging to the transforming growth factor-β superfamily. Mutations make the myostatin gene inactive, resulting in muscle hypertrophy. The relationship between the different characteristics of DM cattle are defined with possible consequences for livestock husbandry. The extremely high carcass yield of DM animals coincides with a reduction in the size of most vital organs. As a consequence, DM animals may be more susceptible to respiratory disease, urolithiasis, lameness, nutritional stress, heat stress and dystocia, resulting in a lower robustness. Their feed intake capacity is reduced, necessitating a diet with a greater nutrient density. The modified myofiber type is responsible for a lower capillary density, and it induces a more glycolytic metabolism. There are associated changes for the living animal and post-mortem metabolism alterations, requiring appropriate slaughter conditions to maintain a high meat quality. Intramuscular fat content is low, and it is characterized by more unsaturated fatty acids, providing healthier meat for the consumer. It may not always be easy to find a balance between the different disciplines underlying the livestock husbandry of DM animals to realize a good performance and health and meat quality.
