Answer:

Option (a) is the correct answer of this question.

Explanation:

Mona shows' Jet Lag ' condition as she's having trouble sleeping as her internal body clock (circadian rhythm) is already locked to California's time zone instead of its present position and time zone. Therefore, her body can not adapt to the new time zone and experiences the phenomenon of' Jet lag.'

Jet lag can take place when sleep-wake routines are interrupted.A person can feel somnolent, exhausted, nauseous, dizzy and somewhat fatigued. This may be the product of going across time zones or performing shift work.

The lipopolysaccharides are found in the Choose one: A. inner membrane. B. periplasm. C. cytoplasm. D. outer membrane.
Yuri [45]

Answer: D

Explanation:

The lipopolysaccharides are found in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. Lipopolysaccharide is complex molecule consisting of a lipid and chains of carbohydrates. They are also called endotoxin, they are the major component of the outer cell membrane. Sugars in the polysaccharide chains of endotoxin confer serologic specificity. They lplay a crucial role in bacteria resistance to antibiotics.

Which best explains the evolution of gymnosperm plants?
grin007 [14]
The answer to this question about the evolution of the gymnosperm plants would be C. They evolved after the seedless vascular plants.

Gymnosperms, or sometimes termed as seed plants, are classified as vascular plants and has been thriving for centuries on earth through producing seeds. They are multicotyledonous and are the opposite of flowering plants. Conifers would be the most abundant group of gymnosperms while the cycads come in second. Gingko would place last with just having one species under its name.

Adapt extinct mutation
lisabon 2012 [21]

That organism will survive in the future which adapt themselves according to the environment.

<u></u>

<h3>What is fitness?</h3>

<u>Fittest </u>is the term describes living things that are best suited to their environment.

Species that survive are the ones that <u>adapt</u>, make or meet changes.

Florida has a rich <u>fossil </u>record spanning from the Eocene to recent times. Florida fossils are often very well preserved.

Two examples of land animal fossils found in Florida are the <u>giant sloth</u> and the<u> </u><u>saber-tooth tiger</u>.

Some animals unable to adapt to the changing environment became <u>extinct </u>.

Living things <u>mutate </u>over time to meet their changing environment.

This biologist, Darwin, studied <u>evolution </u>in the 1800s.

The <u>glyptodont </u>was a giant, armadillo-like animal with a spiked tail that once lived in Florida.

The Origin of Species is a book written in 1859 about<u> </u><u>natural selection</u>.

Nature selects the <u>fittest </u>for survival because they have useful traits.

Changes may occur in animals due to changes in the sequence of base pairs in their DNA, and this is known as a <u>mutation</u>.

Oldfield mice show <u>variation </u>in the color of their fur.

The survival of the light-colored old field mice on Florida's Gulf Coast is an example of the process called <u>adaptation</u>.

Evolution is a controversial theory that has survived much <u>criticism</u>.

The outer hair cells respond to sound by slightly tilting and changing length. because of the consequence of this, the action of
serg [7]

Basilar membranes

In an active cochlea, basilar membranes vibrate more strongly than in a dead cochlea. because all of the outer hair cells slant significantly and alter in length in response to sound. In response to basilar membrane changes, outer hair cells swell and contract. The frequency tuning curve is impacted by damage to the outer hair cells.

<h3>What are the function of Basilar membranes?</h3>

The basilar membrane is the inner ear's primary mechanical component. Over its length, it has graded mass and stiffness characteristics, and its vibration patterns separate incoming sound into its component frequencies, which trigger various cochlear areas.

Impact do outer hair cells have on our hearing :

As a nonlinear amplifier that enables the cochlea to detect sounds with great sensitivity and accuracy, outer hair cells (OHCs) play a crucial role in hearing. These distortion products can be monitored as distortion-product otoacoustic emissions as a result of the nonlinear sound processing (DPOAEs)
