Why did Thomas Hunt Morgan use fruit flies in his studies?

Biology
1 answer:
Cerrena [4.2K]3 years ago
8 0

Thomas Hunt Morgan used fruit flies to study genetics for several reasons. First, fruit flies have a short life cycle that lasts an average of just 30 days. This means genetic traits can be studied over dozens of generations in the course of a year. This rapid reproductive cycle is impossible to match in any mammalian model, even mice or rats. Second, fruit flies produce huge numbers of offspring.

DESCRIBE CONCERNS WITH CLONING ANIMALS, HUMANS, PLANTS. (ATLEAST 3 SENT.)<br> please help
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

Because cloning is used to produce transgenic or gene-edited animals, many perceived concerns regarding cloning are actually concerns about these genetically altered animals, which present a completely different set of potential hazards to animal and human health and the environment. The cloning of humans remains universally condemned, primarily for the associated psychological, social, and physiological risks. There are also concerns that cloning promotes eugenics, the idea that humanity could be improved through the selection of individuals possessing desired traits.

What is the best description of the geology of Mars?
Temka [501]

Answer:

Mars has mountains, valleys, and volcanoes, but the red planet's are by far the biggest and most dramatic.Recent and continuing missions to Mars are showing that the Red Planet may be more geologically active than previously thought.Olympus Mons, the solar system's largest volcano, towers some 16 miles above the Martian surface, making it three times taller than Everest.Geologists think one of the reasons volcanoes on Mars were able to grow so large is that Mars has fewer tectonic boundaries in comparison to Earth.

Hope that was helpful.Thank you!!!
