How are structure and function related to adaptation?

Biology
1 answer:
andreev551 [17]3 years ago
7 0
When you think about it, structure is often but perhaps not always necessary for function of a certain ability in any organism.

Wings for example give organisms the ability to fly, so the structure of their wings enables them to fly. Without wings, they wouldn't be able to fly (excluding free fall or using technology).

Also important is too understand that we adapt through changing our abilities - function ever so slightly from generaton to generation to adapt to a certain environment where we live, this can then change structure accordingly to ensure proper function for the new ability.

I believe that Cell a is most likely in G1 phase.
The G1 phase, or the gap 1 phase, is the first of four phases of the cell cycle that takes place in eukaryotic cell division. In this part of interphase, the cell synthesizes mRNA and proteins in preparation for subsequent steps leading to mitosis. The phase ends when the cell moves into the S phase of interphase.
