Answer;
A) island forms and mainland forms descended from common ancestors.
Explanation;
-Islands tend to host very distinct but limited sets or species; on a given island a spectacular collection of one related group of species would be present and thriving, but many entire families or even higher taxa would be completely absent.
-All the species on the islands and the nearest continent are closely related to one another, however, each species had a set of adaptations that suits it for a particular environment. This means that the island forms and mainland forms descended from common ancestors.
Answer:
The gonads are reproductive organs responsible for the production of <u>gametes (sex cells) in their external secretion and in their internal secretion, hormones that exert their action on the organs involved in reproductive function.</u>
Explanation:
Gonads are glands that are part of two body systems: the endocrine system and the reproductive system; and there are two types of gonads: male and female, the first are the testicles and the second the ovaries and both produce steroid hormones (derived from cholesterol) exactly the same as those produced by the cortex of the adrenal glands.
Circulatory system:
--The circulatory system is also known as the cardiovascular system.
-- It is composed of the heart, blood, blood vessels and also includes the lungs.
The primary function of the circulatory system to distribute oxygen, nutrients, hormones and other gases to cells of the other body systems. It delivers all the necessary components needed for all the cell activities. Without the circulatory system, we would not be alive.
It is our blood that carries these necessary nutrients, hormones, and oxygen. All these components trigger certain processes that keep other organs functioning. It also plays a role in eliminating waste by carrying them to the necessary organs that will filter them out. Without a way to dispose of waste, the body will eventually die.
Answer:
The somatic cells of fruit flies contain eight chromosomes, which means they have two sets of four chromosomes. Meiosis is the process by which sex cells are produced. Sex cells are haploid, which means they have one set of chromosomes.
