A fox is a type of mammal that is related to dogs. How does a fox most likely respond to hot air temperatures in a way that ecto

thermic animals cannot?

Answer:

By panting or breathing heavily.

Explanation:

<em>An ectothermic animal is one whose body temperature depends on the temperature of the external environment.</em>

The body of ectotherms regulates temperature depending on the temperature of the external environment where such animal finds itself.

Hence, when the temperature of the external environment rises as a result of hot air, the body of an ectotherm (that is homeothermic, that is, maintain a relatively constant body temperature irrespective of the temperature of the external environment) will adjust so as to keep its temperature relatively constant.

Dogs generally pant (breathe heavily) to bring their body temperature back to normal whenever it rises beyond normal due to rigorous physical activities or high external temperature.

<em>Hence, a fox will most likely pant in response to hot air temperature just like dogs.</em>

Which species will most likely survive if earth temperature increase?
joja [24]

It's for sure not A because having thick fur will only make you hotter, and thus you will suffer a heat stroke. It's not C because small ears would not be long enough to provide you with cooling. That one does not make sense. It could be D, but the species would need to have alot of muscles in order to be consistently flapping there ears for the constant hear. Answer is B because it is the most logic, and the fewer amount of fur, the less hotter you will be, especially if your fur provides insulation.

Answer is B. Species B because fur would provide insulation.

Compare each patient's cdna sequence to the wild-type cdna sequence. Each patient has one nucleotide-pair substitution mutation.
Lera25 [3.4K]

The mutation is a change in the nucleotidic sequence. In the exposed example, Patient 1: nucleotide 143, T<u>T</u>C⇒T<u>G</u>C. Patient 2: nucleotide 143, T<u>T</u>C⇒T<u>C</u>C. Patient 3: nucleotide 147, TT<u>C</u> ⇒ TT<u>G</u>.

<h3>What is a mutation?</h3>

A mutation is a change or alteration in DNI sequences that introduce new variants.

Many of these are eliminated, but some of them might succeed and be incorporated into each individual.

These mutations are the ones that have been selected by natural selection.

<h3>Solving the problem</h3>

We know that each sequence initiates with nucleotide number 103 and ends in nucleotide 162.

So first, we will number the nucleotides, from 103 to 162. Each nucleotide has a number in increasing order.

Now, we will identify the mutations in each of the strands by comparing them with the wild-type sequence. The mutation occurs in one of the nucleotides, so we must look for the change in the bases.

Finally, we will identify the nucleotide location of each mutation.

                   nucleotide                 wild-type                mutated

<u>                       location                 nucleotide              nucleotide      </u><u>           </u>

Patient 1            143                         TTC                         TGC

Patient 2           143                         TTC                         TCC

<u>Patient 3           147                          TTC                        TTG                         </u>
