Why protonephridia are termed as flame cells?

Biology
1 answer:
madam [21]3 years ago

<span>A protonephridia is known as a flame cell because it is a specialized excretory cell. This simply means that these cells have the ability to remove waste materials within an organ of a particular living organisms. Some freshwater invertebrates, flatworms, and rotifers have these specialized cells within their systems.<span>

natulia [17]

Options: A. contralateral

B. ipsilateral

C. both

Answer:B. ipsilateral

Explanation:The ciliospinal reflex which is also known bas pupillary-skin reflex is usually made uo of the dilation of the ipsilateral pupil this dilation is in response to pain applied to the neck, face, and upper trunk.

If you stimulate the left side of the subject, the response will be only in the ipsilateral which means the stimulation will be felt in the same side of the subject which in this case is the Left side if the subject.

Now assume that the population of butterflies sampled in question above is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Also assume that the s
horsena [70]

Complete question:

A sample of butterflies contained 50% yellow-winged individuals and 50% black-winged individuals. In this species, wing color is determined by a single gene with two alleles, and the allele for black is dominant. Which of the following statements about the allele frequencies in the sample would most likely be true?  Do not assume that this sample was obtained from a population in genetic equilibrium.

a)The frequency of the yellow allele is greater than that of the black allele.

b)The allele frequency of yellow is 3 times the allele frequency of black.

c)The allele frequency of yellow is twice the allele frequency of black.

d)The allele frequencies of black and yellow are equal.

e) The allele frequency of black is greater than the allele frequency of yellow.

2.Now assume that the population of butterflies sampled in question above is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Also assume that the sample is random and large enough that the allele frequencies in the sample equal the allele frequencies in the population.  What is the frequency of the allele for a) yellow wings in the population? Assuming Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in question 1, what would the correct answer be and why?

Answer:

  • a)The frequency of the yellow allele is greater than that of the black allele.
  • f(b) = q = 0.71

Due to technical problems, you will find the complete explanation in the attached files
