Well first off, Mendel’s law of segregation states that individuals possess two alleles and a parent passes only one allele to his/her offspring. Mendel’s law of independent assortment states the inheritance of one pair of factors (genes) is independent of the inheritance of the other pair. Now Mendel discovered this through his little experiment with the pea plants that showed certain traits through a particular pattern, subsequently becoming the foundation of modern genetics and heredity.

Answer:

Evolution provides evidence as to how animals such as birds are related to much older animals. Over time, species evolve and adapt to their surroundings to suit their habitat. Thus many different species pop up. This all doesn't happen in the blink of an eye, though.

dexar [7]

Answer:

D. It is a process of change during which species in a community are established or replaced

Explanation:

Ecological succession is a process that occurs when a community is being established or replaced.

It shows the change in community over time, focusing on the types of plants and the maturity of plants that are in the community.

Primary and secondary succession are the two types of succession. Primary succession shows the process of change in the establishment of a community. Secondary succession shows the change when a community is being replaced.

So, the correct answer is D. It is a process of change during which species in a community are established or replaced

Westkost [7]

Answer:

Lignin.

Explanation:

The structural integrity of plant spores is lignin that is present in many parts of the plant. This lignin provides hardness to the plant body which help them to stand the plant erect. If this lignin is not present in the plant body the plant will not stand erected. This lignin is present in large amount in the stem of plant body so that's why the lignin provides structural integrity to plant spores
