Answer:
Option C
Explanation:
Options for the question are
a. It demonstrated that nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution.
b. It demonstrated that species arise from other species.
c. It provided a quantifiable mechanism to explain gradual evolutionary change.
d. It was the first time that change in biological organisms was observed.
e. It was not very important to evolutionary biology.
Solution -
The term modern synthesis by coined by Julian Huxley and the goal of this synthesis was to understand and determine how genetics bring evolutionary changes in a population and with this objective it combined the Darwin’s theory of evolution and Mendel’s work on heredity. Later on scientist Dobzhansky under this synthesis found that genetic mutation causes variation through the process of natural selection and hence lead to evolutionary changes in a population even if they are isolated for a long time.
Hence, option C is correct
Answer:
The labeled drawing is attached; I just grabbed an image off of the internet. You can do this by hand by just copying what's in your textbook or other reference materials. Let me define five main parts:
- <u>Retina.</u> This is a thin layer of tissue on the back of the eye that receives the signals of light and transfers them to the brain so you can understand them as color and sight.
- <u>Cornea.</u> This is the front part, a reflective layer that "refracts" light. What this means is that light doesn't go directly through it, but its path is almost deflected a little.
- <u>Sclera.</u> This is the part that looks white from the front. It's a protein covering to your eye, and it's very close to the cornea.
- <u>Iris.</u> This is the actually colored part of your eye. If you have hazel or blue eyes, the iris is that portion of the eye. It allows differing amounts of light in.
- <u>Pupil.</u> This is the black part of the eye. It's a hole that looks black because of all the light coming through and being absorbed.
Answer:
Dissimilatory- oxygen absent
Assimilatory- high concentration of nitrite
Explanation:
In assimilatory nitrate reduction, ammonium is produced and subsequently incorporated into biomass to build up e.g., proteins and nucleic acids. Dissimilatory nitrate reduction is a process for energy conservation, in which nitrate is used as an electron acceptor in the (near) absence of oxygen . Dissimilatory nitrate reduction and nitrate storage in particular are physiological life traits that provide microbes with environmental flexibility (i.e., metabolic activity under both oxic and anoxic conditions) and resource independence (i.e., anaerobic metabolism without immediate nitrate supply), respectively. Such life traits are especially important in environments that are temporarily anoxic and/or nitrate-free and they may have developed as a “life strategy” in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes
Genetics will change in each generation depends on who the mother/father has offsprings with, they kids will get genetics from both parents and that creates a new set of genetics for their offspring
Answer:
In addition to dinitrogen, other inorganic and organic forms exist in the soil as well. It makes up 78 percent of the atmosphere but <u>cannot be used by plants. </u>It is taken into the soil by bacteria, some algae, lightning, and other means.
