The answer is D) denser plates slide under lighter plates
Explanation:
Two characteristics are used to define the mammal class. They are mammary glands and body hair (or fur). Female mammals have mammary glands.
Answer:
<h2>Ear has three main parts; outer most part is called outer ear, middle one is as middle ear and innermost as inner ear.
</h2>
Explanation:
1. Outer Ear: Pinna (the outer, funnel-like part), Ear Canal (Conducts sound vibrations from the pinna to the tympanic membrane), and Tympanic Membrane.
2. Middle Ear: Ossicles (Tiny bones that amplify sound waves), Malleus, Tensor Tympani, Incus (Connects the Malleus to the Stapes; receives vibrations from the Malleus and looks like an anvil), Stapes, Stapedius, Oval Window (Receives vibrations from the Stapes and is the flexible opening to the cochlea).
3. Inner Ear: Cochlea (The main structure in the inner ear; tiny coiled structure); Tympanic Canal, Vestibular Canal, Basilar Membrane, Cochlear Partition , Round Window Organ of Corti.
.
Route of Sounds: External environment → Collected by the pinna → Through the ear canal → Vibrates the Tympanic Membrane → Vibrates the ossicles → Vibrates the Oval Window → Sends “Traveling Waves” through the Vestibular Canal → Pressure released by Round Window if necessary → Inner and Outer hair cells transduce the vibrations.
Answer:
a. Her mother has zig-zag antennae.
b. Her brother has zig-zag antennae.
Explanation:
<u>Available data</u>:
- Antennae development ⇒ controlled by maternal effect
- Zig-zag coils are dominant
- Curly coils are recessive
- A female develops zig-zag coils
Maternal effect: Refers to the influence of the “environment provided by the mother” on the progeny phenotype. The mother´s genotype directly determines the progeny phenotype. Even though the progeny has a different genotype, it is irrelevant, as well as the father´s genotype or phenotype. This means that no matter what is the genotype of the offspring, all of them will express the same phenotype as their mother. The maternal effect is commonly seen in insects and might be seen in some mammals and plants.
So, if a female has zig-zag coils, this means that the mother also has zig-zag antennae and that all the brothers and sisters of this female ant have zig-zag antennae, independently of their genotype.
a. Her mother has zig-zag antennae ⇒ True. The trait is inherited from the mother.
b. Her brother has zig-zag antennae ⇒ True. The whole progeny will express sig-zag antennae.
c. This female carries the zig-zag allele ⇒ Not necessarily.
d. This female's offspring will have zig-zag antennae ⇒ Depends on it´s genotype
Answer:
The change of fur color within the population over time became black as a result of the lava flow and allowed the mice to survive.
Explanation:
Because the mice that have brown fur would stand out and get picked of by predators so over time the mice with the darker fur could hide more easy and spread there genetics more easily.
