Select all that apply. How have fossils contributed to our understanding of evolution? Fossils can show the slow changes of macr

oevolution Some fossils are detailed and can show homologous structures Every living thing has left a fossil A collection of fossils from the same strata can give us a picture of the organisms that could survive during that time period.

All of the above points are valid for fossils' contributions in understanding the process of evolution. They allow us to study the ancestry, we can see the homologous organs or structures, if fossils are well-preserved; different fossils can lead us to follow the cycles of the changes that occurred during macroevolutions, and fossils can be used to study different populations which had different body structures for surviving in different environmental conditions.

Coat color in rabbits is under the control of a single gene with
Mashcka [7]

Answer: a) Cch x   Ccch

               b)  Ccch x  Cc

               c)   Cch  x   cchch

               d)  cchc x   chc

Explanation:

<u>Data</u>:

  • Coat color in rabbits is under the control of a single gene with

four alleles: C (full gray color); cch (chinchilla, light gray); ch

(Himalayan, white with black extremities); and c (albino, absence

of pigmentation).

  • The dominance hierarchy is represented as: C >cch > ch > c.

<u>Possible genotypes</u>:

  • <em>For full gray color</em>: CC (Gray), Ccch (Gray-2), Cch (Gray-1), Cc (Gray-3). The allele <em>"C" dominates over the other three alleles</em>, so in every combination where "C" is present, the animal will be fully grayed.
  • <em>For light gray color/Chinchilla</em>: cchcch (Chinchilla), cchch (Chinchilla-1), cchc (Chinchilla-2). The allele <em>"cch" dominates over "ch" and "c"</em>, <em>but not over "C"</em>. So if the allele "C" is combined with "cch", the animal will be fully grayed, but in any other combination with "cch", the animal will be light grayed.
  • <em>For white with black extremities/Himalayan</em>: chch (Hymalayan), chc (Hymalayan-1). The allele <em>"ch" that determines the Himalayan color is only dominant over the allele "c"</em>. But in combination with any other allele, "ch" behaves as a recessive one.
  • <em>For albino</em>: cc. In the presence of any of the other alleles, the allele <em>"c" always behaves as a recessive one.</em> The only possibility of getting an albino animal is if "c" combines with another "c".

It is often easier to determine if an object or organism possesses the characteristics of life rather than life itself.
Vladimir [108]
True.

It is easier since there are a lot of theories that could sum up and provide evidence to support that an object has life than life itself.

One popular theory is the cell theory which states that all organism is made up of cells, cell that came from those pre-existing cells, and reproduce by those cells themselves.
