Answer: I found two on the Blue Moon Butterfly. The BMB evolved with a new gene that renders male butterflies immune to the Wolbachia bacteria passed down from the mother which kills males before they hatched. The bacteria was discovered in the butterflies by Greg Hurst in the 1990s.

Explanation: To find them, look up "blue moon butterfly." One website should be called Berkely(.)edu. The other can be found by looking up "wolbachia butterfly." The website is called theatlantic(.)com.

What is cotransport? Explain how understanding it is used in our treatment of diarrhea.​
qaws [65]

Answer:

In cotransport, a single ATP-powered pump that transports a specific solute drives the active transport of several other  solutes. Normally, sodium in waste is reabsorbed in the colon, maintaining constant levels in the body, but diarrhea  expels waste so rapidly that re-absorption is not possible, and sodium levels fall precipitously. To treat this life threatening condition, patients are given a solution to drink containing high concentrations of salt and glucose. The  solutes are taken up by sodium-glucose cotransporters on the surface of intestinal cells and passed through the cells into  the blood. This simple treatment has lowered infant mortality worldwide.

In two or more sentences, analyze why internal fertilization is more efficient than external fertilization?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Although more offsprings are produced by the process of external fertilization but the process of internal fertilization is more efficient as compared to external fertilization. This is because, in external fertilization, it is more difficult for the sperm to find the egg and fertilize it. Even after fertilization, it might be that the zygote gets eaten up by a predator. There are none such risks in internal fertilization. The zygote is protected during the internal fertilization which makes this process more efficient.

spayn [35]

The correct answer is: smooth endoplasmic reticulum (smooth ER).

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is a membrane organelle of the eukaryotic

cells which consists of tubular membrane vesicles. One of its main function is the synthesis of lipids and their storage. For example, cholesterol and phospholipids are stored in the smooth ER and then used for the synthesis of plasma membrane.

There is another type of ER- rough ER. The difference between these two ER on its outer surface have attached ribosomes- protein-synthesizing particles .
