Evolutionary theory focuses on the long term adaptation of the species over more generations. Every species has 2 long-standing biologically based drives: survival and reproduction. Other answers are not biologically based drives for every species.
Answer:
A ) survival and reproduction.
Answer:
Date and latitude interact to determine photoperiod, the daily period of daylight. This interaction has important implications for latitudinal migrants for whom daylight may be a resource or for whom photoperiod regulates annual transitions in life‐history stages (i.e. birds).
Using an established formula, we developed user‐interactive, animated models that enable the visualization of how latitude and date determine photoperiod for latitudinal migrants. We also calculated the photoperiodic schedules for a broad range of hypothetical migratory programmes and real migratory programmes newly available through the proliferation of citizen‐science data. This enabled us to infer the limitations some migratory programmes place on mechanisms for photoperiodic regulation of annual breeding.
In the vast majority of cases, the act of migrating elevates annual daylight exposure. This raises the hypothesis that daylight availability selects for latitudinal migration, potentially contributing to its evolution in animals such as diurnal birds with limited time during the spring and summer to feed young. However, photoperiodic mechanisms regulating annual cycles could constrain the evolution of such migrations, depending on how they affect photoperiodic schedules. Most migratory programmes are consistent with known mechanisms of avian photoperiodism, but the range of feasible mechanisms declines for transequatorial migrants, which experience semi‐annual, 180°‐phase‐shifts in their photoperiodic cycles.
Understanding photoperiodic constraints on migration are particularly important in this age of changing latitudinal distributions and phenologies driven by climate change.
Hope this helps and have a great day!!! :D
Answer: 6
Explanation:The number of protons present in the nucleus of an atom is known as Atomic Number. Atomic Number helps in determining the chemical properties of an atom. Thus it is given that the given ion contains 6 protons thus the atomic number of the ion will be six. hope this helps
Answer:
Animal ; prokaryote ; plant ; virus
Explanation:
Animal: An animal cell possesses cell membrane, ribosomes, lysosomes and nuclear membrane.
Prokaryote: In a prokaryotic cell, cell wall is present such as bacteria, ribosomes are present but nuclear membrane is absent
Plant: A plant cell possesses cell wall, ribosomes, nucleus and a large vacuole.
Virus: Viruses reproduces inside a cell because they do not have their own energy producing system, nucleus is absent but nucleic acid ( DNA or RNA) is present
Answer:
Y is probably excitatory and Z is probably inhibitory
Explanation:
- Two neurons communicate with each other generally by releasing neurotransmitters.
- The neuron which releases the neurotransmitter is termed as presynaptic neuron and the neuron to which the neurotransmitter binds to exert its effects is called as postsynaptic neuron.
- Based on the nature of the neurotransmitter released, the presynaptic neurons can either be inhibitory or excitatory in nature.
- The change in the membrane potential of the postsynaptic neurons depends on the total sum of inputs coming from different pre synaptic neurons at a given time.
- From the given situation, the stimulation by X alone is causing deploarization of 0.5 mV which shows that it is causing excitation, and since depolarization is increasing when X and Y are stimulaneously stimulated Y is also excitatory in nature. However the depolarisation is not occurring when X and Z are stimualted together and hence, Z is probably inhibitory in nature.
