Lake Baikal is the oldest and deepest lake in the world. It is found in the middle of Siberia. In Lake Baikal there are 32 speci

es of sculpin (a type of fish). All of these species are only found in Lake Baikal. You want to understand the evolutionary history of this group of fish and how speciation occurred for sculpin in Lake Baikal. A. What mechanism of speciation do you think has occurred in Lake Baikal sculpin. Provide your answer in the form of a hypothesis. (2 points) B. What are TWO types of additional information you would want to gather in order to test your hypothesis from A? (5 points)

Answer:

The. Two populations of sculpin lived on Lake Baikal, but a genetic change in one of the populations prevented them from crossing, thus creating a new species of sculpin.

B. The additional information I would use to test the hypotheses would be: 1) is there any species of fish similar to sculpin in the same lake? 2) what is the genetic change presented by the sculpins?

Explanation:

My hypothesis about sculpin fish states that sympathetic speciation has occurred. This speciation occurs when two populations of the same species can no longer promote crossings between them, thus creating an evolutionary process, which results in the creation of two distinct species, in the same habitat. I believe that this type of speciation is more common to happen in aquatic environments and in fish, since these environments present less physical barriers than the terrestrial environment. This usually occurs with the existence of genetic modifications within one of the populations. As a result, to test my hypothesis, I would need information about the existence of species similar to sculpin within the same lake, in addition to knowing what genetic differences between them would promote this type of speciation.

Lorico [155]

Explanation:

1. У умных птиц у них только очень хорошо развит мозжечок.

U umnykh ptits u nikh tol'ko ochen' khorosho razvit mozzhechok.

2.  Это не правда; В случае самок птиц у нее один яичник, у них единственный - левый (правый атрофируется во время развития вместе с соответствующим яйцеводом), чьи соответствующие протоки открываются в клоаку или в половые отверстия.

V sluchaye samok ptits u neye odin yaichnik, u nikh yedinstvennyy - levyy (pravyy atrofiruyetsya vo vremya razvitiya vmeste s sootvetstvuyushchim yaytsevodom), ch'i sootvetstvuyushchiye protoki otkryvayutsya v kloaku ili v polovyye otverstiya.

3.Так и есть; зародышевый диск медленно растет на поверхности желтка с образованием бластодермы. Часть бластодермы, которая образует органы, является лишь частью бластодиска: zona pellucida; таким образом, инвагинация сводится к этой области в центральной первичной депрессии.

Tak i yest'; zarodyshevyy disk medlenno rastet na poverkhnosti zheltka s obrazovaniyem blastodermy. Chast' blastodermy, kotoraya obrazuyet organy, yavlyayetsya lish' chast'yu blastodiska: zona pellucida; takim obrazom, invaginatsiya svoditsya k etoy oblasti v tsentral'noy pervichnoy depressii.

4. Большинство видов гнездятся на земле, и их гнезда содержат от 4 до 12 яиц, окруженных пухом, сорванным с груди и живота самки. Птенцы плавают и кормятся самостоятельно вскоре после вывода из яйца. Некоторые виды, такие как североамериканская утка, гнездятся в дуплах деревьев и без проблем используют гнезда из искусственной древесины. Их птенцы могут без вреда выпрыгнуть из гнезда и вскоре войти в воду.

Bol'shinstvo vidov gnezdyatsya na zemle, i ikh gnezda soderzhat ot 4 do 12 yaits, okruzhennykh pukhom, sorvannym s grudi i zhivota samki. Ptentsy plavayut i kormyatsya samostoyatel'no vskore posle vyvoda iz yaytsa. Nekotoryye vidy, takiye kak severoamerikanskaya utka, gnezdyatsya v duplakh derev'yev i bez problem ispol'zuyut gnezda iz iskusstvennoy drevesiny. Ikh ptentsy mogut bez vreda vyprygnut' iz gnezda i vskore voyti v vodu.

Write a summary on plant growth and how plants grow.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Plant grow using a process called photosynthesis. This is a process in which  green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and creates oxygen as a byproduct. The plant uses the energy from the sun in order to create energy for itself while at the same time taking up carbon dioxide and water to grow.
