Answer:
C. Traits present in the last common ancestor of a certain group of species under consideration.
Explanation:
Ancestral character traits are the one that is present in the last common ancestor and all of its descendant groups. For example, the presence of the vertebral column is an ancestral trait for all the vertebrate groups such as birds and mammals as it was present in their last common ancestor and is also shared by them.
Answer:
lose more heat to the environment in cold environments
Explanation:
This is because as an animal have large surface area, it is exposed largely and prone to loss of heat. The larger the size of an animal, the larger the surface area and volume. It's surface area expose the tendency for the animal to sweat alot , through sweating heat is loss to the environment. In cold environment, the animal try to maintain internal homeostasis and through this heat is generated and loss to the environment.
When we talk about meiosis I and II we talk about gametes formation.
The objective is to create cells with half DNA charge, called haploids.
At the meiosis I, in prophase I, crossing over happens and anaphase separated homologous chromosomes.
In the end, you still have cells with all DNA charges (2n).
To start meiosis II cells does not duplicate its DNA. When anaphase II happens sister chromatids split, and you end with half DNA charge cells. Haploids or (n).
Answer:
Option (A).
Explanation:
Mendel is known as the father of genetics. He explains the concept of dominance and introduces the law of segregation and law of independent assortment.
The law of independent assortment explains that the segregation of one pair of character is independent on the other character. The law of independent assortment is valid because the trait used by the Mendel are located on different chromosome and does not show the linkage.
Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
