Why was Lamarck’s theory quickly dismissed?

Biology
1 answer:
AfilCa [17]3 years ago
8 0
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Lamarck's theory is rejected because it does not explain how traits are inherited through the passing on of genes.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • According to Lamarck's theory the mechanism for evolution involved the inheritance of acquired traits.
  • Lamarck believed that traits changed or acquired over an individual's lifetime could be passed down to its offspring.
  • Howeve<em><u>r, this theory was dismissed based on two things; first through experimentation, such that changes that occur in organisms during life are not passed on to the their offspring.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Additionally, the study of genetics also proved the Lamarck's theory wrong, which explained that traits are passed on through genes, which are not affected by the outside world.</u></em>

gavmur [86]

rDNA is using genetic cloning to form DNA molecules from different species. in this example you can make the hormone insulin by getting some of the components from one organism and getting the remainder from another organism. Specifically, Insulin has 2 amine chains, so you can get 1 amine chain from one organism, and the other from a different one. Then you can combine them and you'll get insulin.

Which of these is a way climate change positively affects organisms?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Climate change positively affects organisms by </em><em><u>providing them new habitat. </u></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Climate change induces <em>changes in various parameters of an ecosystem </em>like temperature, precipitation, soil properties etc. habitats may undergo changes that make it unsuitable for native organisms to live in.

But this <em>new conditions</em> may be favourable for some other kind of organisms to thrive and flourish.

<em>For example, </em>when temperature of a lake increases due to climate change warm water aquatic organisms find a new habitat in the lake. But this threatens the life of <em>native cold water organisms of the lake. </em>

Thus climate change doesn’t bring any benefits to living world without harming one or the other <em>group of organisms. </em>

TRUE OR FALSE<br> Oxygen is absorbed into the bloodstream in the trachea?
Arte-miy333 [17]

False. Oxygen is absorbed in the alveoli sacs of the lungs.

Upon inhalation Air must first pass through the larynx and down to the trachea, which then splits off into two separate bronchial tubes, the bronchial tubes divide into smaller air passages known as the bronchi and those into even smaller bronchioles. The bronchioles end in tiny sacs called the alveoli which transfer the oxygen from the inhaled air to the bloodstream.
