Answer:
A. maintenance of axons is not a cellular activity associated with microtubules.
Explanation:
Microtubules are hollow, bead-like, tiny tubular structure that helps cells maintain its shapes. Together with microfilaments and intermediate filaments, they form part of the cell's cytoskeleton. Microtubules also contributes to the cell movement or cytokinesis that includes muscle contractions in muscle cells. Microtubules also replicated chromosomes to opposite ends of a cell during cell division. Microtubules also contribute to the parts of the cell that help it move and are structural elements of cilia, centrioles and flagella. A bundle of microtubules makes up an axonemal structure of cilia and flagella.
Answer:
Earth's continents were once connected in a single supercontinent.

Answer:
1. Protect biodiversity
2. An indicator species
3. Biomagnification
4. Cutting down all the trees for lumber
5. Bioaccumulation
Explanation:
1. Conserving areas such as rain forests protect biodiversity because rain forests hold one of the highest biodiversity. They carry different types of resources that support different forms of life and at the same time, the organisms that live there support each other as well.
2. An indicator species is an organism that scientists can observe to see if there are changes in the environment it lives in. They judge the change or the implications based on the absence of the species in the environment (in which they used to be present), the presence of the species, and markers of adaptation due to the change in the ecosystem.
3. Biomagnification is a term used when contaminants that were consumed by the organisms in the lower trophic level are passed on to the next trophic level in higher concentrations. This is why those in the highest trophic levels are affected the most because they get the higher concentration of contaminants. DDT was banned when this phenomena was observed.
4. The greatest decrease in rain forest stability would be due to the cutting of trees. We can disrupt stability by gathering resources like nuts from some trees or when you remove one species of plant for medicine. However, the trees are an essential part of the rain forest because each part or area of the tree support different organisms. By cutting the whole trees off and several of them, you doom the organisms that rely on them as well.
5. As mentioned above, bioaccumulation is often interchanged with biomagnification but they differ in the usage of the terms. Like biomagnification, it talks about the accumulation of contaminants in organisms that ingest or absorb them. But bioaccumulation is a term used in a smaller scale, where it talks about the accumulation of the contimants in the tissues of the organism and not how they are passed on.
I’m not sure but I think it’s the sebaceous glands
Answer:
predation
Explanation:
If the first coat color is black for example, the mice will be able to hide away in a dark area or corner, they will also be able to move around at night almost undetected. Changes in environment, such as development and introduction of street lighting may cause these mice to be easily seen by predators. These mice will quickly be eaten by predators now that they are accessible. On the other hand mice that have a different color such as white or grey will be able to blend in better with the new surroundings. These mice will pass along this trait to their progeny and the new coat color will proliferate.
