Shark pups with the most advantageous traits are more likely to survive and reproduce. For example, pups that can hunt and feed

with efficiency directly after being born would have an advantageous trait. What is the best prediction of how this will affect the frequency of advantageous traits in future generations?
A) are sharks in the next generation will have those exact traits
B) as long as conditions favor those traits those traits will become increasingly common in future generations
C) regardless of environmental conditions those traits will decrease in frequency in future populations
D) some of those sharks will reproduce and the more advantageous traits will remain in the population at a constant frequency

The answer is B. This is called genetic shift. The pups with advantageous traits are able to survive until the age of reproduction hence able to pass their genes to the next generation. Few and fewer pups with disadvantageous traits will get to reproduce hence the allelic frequencies of the shark population will shift in favour of increased hunting efficiency.

Answer: Increase the depth of ventilation.

In high altitude, the oxygen pressure will be much lower that makes the gas exchange rate is lower and decrease the oxygen delivery to <span>the tissue.</span> To counter this, the mouse will increase its depth of ventilation so there is more air inside the lungs for every inspiration.

Where is the Electron Transport System (ETS) located in prokaryotic cells?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Cellular membrane.

Explanation:

In prokaryotes electron transport chain isIn prokaryotes electron transport chain is located in the cell membrane. ETC is defined as the series of complexes which helps in the transfer of electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via reduction, and oxidation reaction couple the transfer of protons with electron transport across a member.

The primary function of the ETC is generated a transmembrane proton electrochemical gradient, such as oxidation, and reduction reaction.
