Organisms that originated in a certain geographic region and can only be found in that region are said to be endemic.
Explanation:
Endemic organisms are taxonomic species (plants and animals) which originates and distributed only in specific geographic regions. This state of evolution is called endemism.
They are said to be native or indigenous to that particular region which can be an ecological habitat, an entire nation, an island, a mountain range etc. Certain parts are known for majority of their species being endemic like St. Helen Island, New Caledonia Island, Hawaiian Islands, Southern regions of Africa, and Australia.
The species becomes endemic to a particular region because of the presence of certain bio-geographical environmental qualities of that habitat which are favorable to that species.
When these conditions become unfavorable, then species becomes restricted leading to endangerment or extinction of the species.
Examples:
- Kangaroo - Australia
- Nilgiri Tahr, - Nilgiri Hills, India
- The Redwood trees of West Coast of the USA
- Plants like kalo, sumac of Hawaii
Answer:
The correct answer is option B) "Mendelian".
Explanation:
Transmission genetics is basically the study of how traits and characteristics are passed from one generation to the next. This branch of modern genetics study is also known as “Mendelian Genetics” in honor to Gregor Johann Mendel, the scientist how described the rules of heredity with the study of the characteristics of pea plants and how they transfer them among the generations.
Physical chemists study matter and energy, and there is chemical reactions in your body, and all living things have elements, like carbon.
