Cells of various types have different functions because cell structure and function are closely related. It is apparent that a cell that is very thin is not well suited for a protective function.
An example of a population in which evolution could take place in a relatively short period of time could be pathogenic bacteria exposed to antibiotics.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
Evolution if takes place within a short period of time say the next generation that is called as micro evolution. This is caused when a specific organism exposed in a different environment at once modifies its genes to suit the new environment. This phenomenon can be very well seen in the pathogenic bacteria which are exposed to antibiotics.
When an antibiotic is prescribed to bacteria initially it nullifies its effect by destroying it. When continuously exposed to a certain antibiotic some bacteria dies but there are few which becomes resistant to it and survives. This on the other hand multiplies producing a generation that can’t be touched by the antibiotic.
The right answer is D.
The density of a given population is calculated by dividing the number of inhabitants by the area expressed in km² (or in hectares).
Number of inhabitants ÷ area (in km²) = number of inhabitants / km²
A = 125000 organism/ 2.5 m2 = 50,000 organisms / m2
B = 13000 organisms / m2
C = 37500 organisms / m2
D = 200000 organisms / m2
Answer:
C. phylum
Explanation:
According to the Carolus LInnaeus (1707-1778), He identified the system of classification of organisms into seven taxa which includes: Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, species.
Kingdom:
The highest category into which organisms are classified and in which the whole of nature could fit.
Phylum:
A category used in the classification that consists of one or several similar or closely related classes. It is known as PHYLUM in classification of animal species and DIVISION in plant species.
Class:
One or several similar or closely related orders. Similar classes are said to be grouped into PHYLUM.
Order:
One or several similar or closely related families. Similar orders form a
CLASS.
Family:
One or several similar or closely related genera. Similar families are grouped into an ORDER.
Genus (pl. genera):
A number of similar or closely related species. Similar genera are grouped into a FAMILY.
Species:
A group of similar individuals that can breed and produce fertile offspring.
Similar and related species are grouped into a GENUS.
