Answer 1: Difference b/w wet and dry earwax genes is due to switch of a single DNA unit i.e. single nucleotide polymorphism.
Answer 2: Earwax is important in many ways mainly it is a biological flypaper as it prevents dust and insects from entering the ear.
Answer 3: Genetics have proved that for those who sweat a lot and have armpit odor have wet earwax.
Answer 4: The wet type earwax is dominant one with honey brown or dark brown color while dry one is recessive.
Answer 5: As wet earwax is dominant trait, according to the given scenario the genotype of parent with wet earwax will be "WW" which when crossed with dry earwax parent will have all the offsprings with wet earwax.
Answer: Nitrogen-fixing Bacteria
Explanation:
In the Nitrogen cycle, nitrogen fixing bacteria are very important in ensuring that plants get nitrogen to enable them grow and as animals have to eat plants, these bacteria are essential for our survival as well.
Plants are unable to use atmospheric nitrogen but nitrogen-fixing bacteria are able to synthesize ammonia from atmospheric nitrogen. They can then convert this to Nitrites and Nitrates which are more useful to plants and animals by extension.
Answer:
Explanation:
When you are in the northern hemisphere, you are near the north pole. If you are in the Southern Hemisphere, you are closer to the South Pole. As you probably already know, the earth is tilted. When you are closer to the equator, your number of daylight hours increase. The farther you are from the equator, the less daylight you will receive.
convergent evolution - called analogy
a potential source of confusion in constructing a phylogeny is similarity between organisms that is due to convergent evolution - called analogy - rather than to shared ancestry. thus for mammals, the backbone is a shared ancestral character, a character that originated in an ancestor of the taxon
