Since the Pleistocene ice age, deserts have been gradually forming in the southwestern United States. As the original lakes and

Answer:

(A) speciation.

Explanation:

Shrinking of water bodies and development of deserts since the Pleistocene ice age produced new vacant niches that could be inhabited by organisms such as fishes. Production of new isolated streams, ponds, and springs allowed the fishes to occupy these new water bodies. Accumulation of genetic variations to become adapted to their new habitat resulted in the evolution of several new species of fishes with many different genetic traits. This represents speciation due to geographical isolation.

LiRa [457]

Answer: The correct answer would be YYRr and Y_Rr

Explanation:

Let us denote Y and y be the alleles of the gene responsible for seed color and R and r be the alleles of the gene responsible for seed shape. Capital letter is for dominant allele and small letter is for recessive allele.

Being dominant traits, both the parents should have at least one dominant allele of both the genes. It is because the phenotype of both parents is yellow and round seeds.

In addition, F1 shows single phenotype for seed color but both phenotype for seed shape. The presence of recessive phenotype in F1 indicates that both the parents must be heterozygous for seed shape, that is, Rr.

However, for seed color, it is possible that either one or both were homozygous, that is, either both YY or one parent is YY and another parent is Yy.

Answer:

The correct answer is -

A. axon

B. dendrite

C. neurotransmitter

D. Synapse

Explanation:

The given diagram is the representation of two neurons connected by the chemical signal. Each neuron has a nerve fiber that carries the nerve signal from one neuron to another covered with sheath, this body is called Axon.

Axon is connected with dendrite, which receives a signal from other neurons and is arise from the cell body of neurons in various numbers. The site where two neurons meet called synapse which is releases neurotransmitters a chemical signal molecule.
