Which of these scientists is best known for his idea that characteristics an individual gains in its lifetime could be passed on
Anna [14]
This was Lamarck's idea. Here's an example: Suppose giraffes originally had short necks that they stretched to reach high-up leaves in the trees. This continuous stretching of the neck was passed onto offspring, who as a result had slightly longer necks. This continued for multiple generations until we get today's long-necked giraffe. Lamarck was on to something (that something being evolution by natural selection, which Darwin discovered), but his theory wasn't completely correct since organisms can only pass on genes (segments of DNA that code for a characteristic or function) to their offspring. Since "stretching" would not code into DNA, it wouldn't be passed onto offspring, proving Lamarck's theory incorrect.

Ugo [173]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- red blood cells (RBC)

Explanation:

Malaria has proved endemic to the human species as it has killed the humans in large numbers and it has acted as one of the strongest selective force.

The malaria disease has caused the mutation in the genes in the red blood cells which carries the oxygen to different organs of the body. The mutation in the genes causes the circular shape of red blood cell to sickle-shaped cells which carry less oxygen to the organs.

The change in the shape of red blood cell provides resistance against malaria disease but it becomes a problem where malaria is not a problem.

Thus, red blood cells (RBC) is the correct answer.
