Answer:
C but see below.
Explanation:
e. The paper clip will likely fall off because it wasn't attached to the nail long enough to be magnetized.
The same answer would apply to the nail. It likely was not held onto the magnet long enough to pick up a magnetic force that would be strong enough to overcome the gravitational force pulling on the clip.
Of the four answers you have given us, I would agree with C. But as I've argued above, the real reason is likely there.
If another predator, that is more efficient hunter, enters the territory of the puffins, the puffins will find themselves in a very tough situation. They will either have to adapt very quickly, or die out.
The evolutionary pressure will be there fro the puffins to push them in a direction to adapt and be netter hunters, thus fight for their existence. That would mean that the puffin's beak, but also their speed and efficiency will have to improve in order to compete or even out-compete the new predator.
If the puffins do not manage to adapt relatively quickly, and a food shortage occurs, than they will die out, as they will lose the fight for food constantly.
Answer and Explanation:
In crickets, femur length represents a highly important trait associated with jumping performance - an essential behavior for their survival and reproduction.
According to research, these are the possible advantages and disadvantages in regard to long femur length:
Advantages
- Longer legs [may] provide higher power for the muscles in order to jump.
- Long-legged crickets generate lower reaction forces while performing a jump, which enables them to lose less energy in comparison with crickets with shorter femur length.
Disadvantages
- Longer femurs may increase the total take-off time of a cricken prior to a jump.
- In some cases, longer femurs force insects to develop head or body structures to enable them to 'fit' the legs while they prepare to jump.
- Increased energy loss while jumping from an elevated leaf.
Answer:
Answer No 3: Recent studies and researches have shown that the muscle cells do not actually wear and tear during heavy exercises. What happens is that micro tears are formed in the muscle fibers as a result of heavy exercise. These micro tears cause the muscle cells to rebuild themselves.
Answer No 4: One of the biggest reasons that the insertions done by CRISPR-Cas9 insertion would not pass to future generations is because the specialized cells are being modified in this system. As the specialized cells do not have the tendency to for all cells of the body hence, the insertion made by CRISPR-Cas9 will most likely not be transferred to the future generation.
