Question:
I failed to find the options, but I will post the way by which you can construct Punnett squares.
Answer and Explanation:
First, you need to know both parental individuals´ genotypes. From these genotypes, you will get all the possible gametes for each parent, following the principle of simple segregation.
Then, by using a simple square, you will make the crosses. This is:
- You will locate all the possible gametes of one parent on the top of the square
- You will place all the possible gametes of the other parent on the left edge of the square.
- Once you have done that, you will perform the crosses. You will look for the intersection between each parent´s gametes and place all the involved alleles in the intersection-box. These are the possible genotypes, and they will be written within the square.
In the attached files, you will find an example of the cross between two pure-breeding plants.
Answer:
D) The porcupine is showing a physical characteristic adaptation and the opossum is showing a behavioral adaptation.
Explanation:
Adaptation, which refers to the ability of an organism to adjust to changes in their external environment in order to survive, is of different types namely: physical/structural, behavioral etc.
- A physical or structural adaptation is a possessed physical characteristics/traits of an organism that enables it adapt.
- A behavioral adaptation is an organisms change in behavioral pattern or responses made to changes in the environment.
According to this question;
- A porcupine is said to have quills on its back which helps protect it from predators. This shows an example of STRUCTURAL or PHYSICAL ADAPTATION, which is the QUILLS it possesses.
- An opossum is said to pretend to be dead and become stiff when threatened. This is an example of BEHAVIORAL ADAPTATION because the opossum responds behaviorally to being threatened.
The answer is D) all of the above
Qualitative data is when you can see the ecosystems. the importance of biodiversity for all sustainable ecosystems is biodiversity boosts ecosystem productivity whether each species, no matter how small, all have an important role to play.
Topiramate
Topiramate is the drug which might be responsible for this malformation.
Topiramate is an anticonvulsant drug which is taken alone or with other drugs to prevent and control epilepsy. Topiramate is produced in four forms and are all taken by mouth. Topiramate has many side effects which include birth defects if is taken during pregnancy, osteoporosis, vision loss, nervousness and upper respiratory tract infection.
