The whip tail of a vinegaroon is a mimic for a scorpions pincher claws true or false?

Biology
1 answer:
Vilka [71]3 years ago
4 0

The statement is - False.

The vinegaroon has became very similar in appearance to the scorpions, by having similar body, similar proportions to certain species, having a whip tail. The whip tail though is not a mimic for the scorpion's pincher claws, but instead, it is a mimic of the scorpion's stinger. This adaptation of the vinegaroon has the purpose to fend of the predators by making them think that it is actually a scorpion and that they will get a nasty poisonous sting. This type of adaptations by mimicking certain traits of more dangerous species can be found in lot of animals from all shapes and sizes.

Suppose only one gene with 2 alleles determines a particular trait but the alleles are codominant. how mant different phenotypes
Leona [35]

The answer is one trait. In Codominant alleles, neither allele is dominant over the other. Both alleles are expressed equally hence no recessive or dominant phenotypes. An example of that of fur color in rabbits where one  parent with black fur color and the other with white fur color will produce offspring of black and white fur color. This should not be confused with incomplete dominance  whre the two alleles blend in phenotype.Example of incomplete dominance is a parent with straight hair in humans and another with curled hair will produce wavy hair offsprings.

Answer:

Adaptive radiation

Explanation:

Adaptive radiation occurs when an ancestral species move to a new environment that has various resources that are necessary for survival and also has environmental conditions that would ensure its offspring adapt well over time. In this new environment, the ancestral species would produce offspring with different traits and behaviors that will allow them to survive in this new environment while occupying their various niches. Over a relatively short time, different species arising from the common ancestor would occupy the new environment.

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

b) By mixing weak base with its conjugate acid and then adjusting the pH with strong  acid.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, considering that the buffer required a pH greater than 7 where the basic conditions are present, we need a weak base and its conjugate base in order to assure such pH greater than 7. Moreover, by using a strong acid, we can gently add it in order to decrease the pH up to 7.4 via a properly measured neutralization of the necessary moles of base up to a hydrogen concentration of 3.98x10⁻⁸ (pH). Therefore, answer is b) By mixing weak base with its conjugate acid and then adjusting the pH with strong  acid.

Best regards.
