Answer:

Cohesion is when the molecules that are attracted are the same type of molecules. In other words, cohesion is the force of attraction that holds these substances together.

Explanation:

The water drop is composed of water molecules that like to stick together, an example of the property of cohesion.

The water drop is stuck to the end of the pine needles, which is an example of the property of adhesion.

Answer:

The option 'All cells contain a nucleus' is not a part of the cell theory.

Explanation:

The cell theory proposed by scientists illustrates that every organism whether prokaryotic or eukaryotic is made up of a cell or different kinds of cells. It also that explains that cells are made from living things. According to the cell theory, cells are termed as the basic unit of life, without which life is not possible.

The cell theory does not claim that every cell must have a nucleus because many cells like cells of prokaryotes lack nucleus. Their genetic material is dispersed in the cytoplasm.

6. A scientist measures the circumference of acorns in a population of oak trees
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

6. 2 cm

8. Greater than 2 cm and less than 2 cm

Explanation:

Complete Question

6. A scientist measures the circumference of acorns in a population of oak trees and discovers that the most common circumference is 2 cm. What would you expect the most common circumference(s) to be after 10 generations of stabilizing selection?

-2 cm

-Greater than 2 cm or less than 2 cm

-Greater than 2 cm and less than 2 cm

-Can't tell from the information given

8. Refer to question 6, but this time answer what you would expect after 10

generations of directional selection.

-2 cm

-Greater than 2 cm or less than 2 cm

-Greater than 2 cm and less than 2 cm

-Can't tell from the information given

Solution -

6. In an stabilizing selection, the average trait of a given population is favored over extreme values. Hence, it can be said that one specific trait is over presented in a given population. For example – uniform human birth weight, number of eggs a bird lay etc.  

Here in this case if most common circumference is 2 cm , then the tree population will try to have this trait as a stabilizing trait.  

Thus, option A is correct

8. In a  directional selection, the genetic variation decreases as per the environmental change. And hence the average trait will not be selected. Instead traits either higher or lower the average values will be preferred.  

Thus, option C is correct
