Heterotrophic organisms require nitrogen and carbon for nutrition.The reason is primarliy based on the theory primordial soup. It also have a lot to do with organic compounds.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

the trait with Mendelian inheritance shows segregation in the F2 generation.

Explanation:

Blending inheritance is the theory that the offspring inherits any characteristic that are intermediate between those of the parents.

However, Gregor Johann Mendel showed that this not true that hereditary substances from parents merge together in their offspring.

In the given question,

the offspring of true-breeding parents show an intermediate phenotype, although a trait such as flower color in snapdragons is determined by two alleles with incomplete dominance.

The difference is that the trait with Mendelian inheritance shows segregation in the F2 generation.

PLEASE HELP!!! (ANSWER APPROPRIATELY)
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Complete immersion in water is not essential for life for the yabby. If its gills are kept moist (humid air is sufficient), it can absorb oxygen from the air and survive for many days out of water. To breed, however, it must be in water.

The yabby has evolved an ingenious mechanism for surviving drought. As the ground dries up it burrows down following the falling water table, and seals the burrow entrance with an earthen plug. In a small, moist chamber at the bottom, the yabby enters a state resembling suspended animation, its bodily functions (respiration, pulse and digestion) practically ceasing. This mechanism is called aestivation (not hibernation, which is a winter adaptation of warm-blooded animals). The yabby can remain like this for years on end. Burrows well over 5 metres deep have been found.

The yabby is rarely found in clear water. Its natural habitat is usually muddy water, which (although probably not essential to life) may give some protection from predators. Some predators, such as fish, do not depend upon sight alone but can sense pressure changes, tracking their prey even in muddy water; cormorants too can find their prey in muddy waters.

Substrate type is not critically important, although the yabby is commonly found on muddy or silted bottoms with the occasional rock or fallen branch (in contrast to the leaf-littered, rocky or pebbly streams of the spiny crayfishes). Experiments have shown that growth is faster on a natural substrate such as mud or stones, than on an artificial one such as plastic tanks.

Explanation:

Hope that my answer helped. If my answer did help you then would you be kind to give me brainliest because I've been trying to rank up. If not then it's totally fine. Thanks :)

What are the three main categories of organelles within the cytoplasm?
Arturiano [62]
Planarias are flat worms that live freely in freshwater and sometimes in teh logs, soil, plants, or other dump or humid areas. They are from the class of Turbellarians. They have a very good ability in regeneration. They are acoelomerate which means that their body is very solid without any hollows. 

They excrete unwanted objects from their body using their excretory system which is consists of series of tubes with length similar to their body length. The flame cells remove excess water through the use of the cilia and pass them to the ducts. At the end of the duct, there exist pores called the nephridiapores.
