Ans.

In some organisms, such as crocodiles, lizards, and turtles, gender determination is affected by temperature. In turtles, the eggs become female when the temperature is higher, while eggs become male when temperature is less than that of required by female development.

Thus, to hypothesizes that the gender determination in turtles is affected by temperature, 'the scientist should expose different groups of turtles to different sets of temperatures in a laboratory.'

EleoNora [17]

Should be prophase because chromatin coils up, becoming shorter and thicker, thick enough to become visible when stained.

It is mistakenly believed that the rapid evolutionary changes of punctuated equilibrium are the result of some mechanism of evol

Answer: Natural selection can be defined as the differential survival and reproduction of members of the population of a species that have suitable traits to survive in a population of species.

Explanation:

The punctuated changes in the population of species have been found inordinately faster in the geological time scale, but changes per-generation have been relatively slow. Also, the rate of evolution in such a population is also slow. The punctuated changes in the population are because of evolution but the per-generation changes are the outcomes of the natural selection, in which only the beneficial traits are passed from one generation to another.

Which is the best hypothesis for the scientific question How does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthes 57

LuckyWell [14K]

Explanation:

A hypothesis mustn't be too detailed since you are about to take the experiment and not sure of the outcome so we have to stick with Light intensity has an impact on the rate of photosynthesis.

Directional selection acts against:

Directional selection acts against b<span>oth extremes simultaneously in the variation of the trait. This is the most "aggressive" form of selection and only happens in extreme areas.
