Answer:

The correct option is B) Their offspring cannot breed.

Explanation:

Organisms belonging to the same species require the ability to breed and produce fertile offsprings. If two organisms breed to produce infertile offsprings, then they are not considered to belong in the same species. Infertile offsprings do not have the capability to reproduce. The breeding between a horse and a zebra produces zorse, which is sterile. This depicts that both the zebra and horse belong to different species as they cannot produce a fertile offspring.

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

fixed action pattern, key stimulus; key stimulus, fixed action pattern

Explanation:

  • An innate behavior which specific to a species and is highly stereotyped is termed as a fixed action pattern.
  • This behavior occurs due to a neuronal network that is hard-wired in the species and the response is said to be generated following a key stimulus.
  • A key stimulus is the one that generates a fixed action pattern and this is also called a releaser.
  • A key stimulus can be in the form of shape, sound, color, or a combination of these.
  • In this case, the red spot is a stimulus for the chicks which causes them to peck at their parent's bill, and hence, the red spot is a key stimulus, and pecking of the chicks is a fixed action pattern.
  • The parents regurgitate the food only when the chicks peck at their bills, so pecking is a key stimulus for the parents which causes them to regurgitate the food which is a fixed action pattern.

1. What element has 81 protons in the nuclei of its atoms?
lakkis [162]
A little trick i learnt: The atomic number reflects how many electrons there are, and there must be an equal charge. therefore, there are the same amount of protons as there are electrons. so if it has 81 protons, we look for number 81 in the periodic table, Thallium
