Answer: convergent evolution

Explanation:

The similar shapes of fast swimming marine predators are an example of convergent evolution.

Convergent evolution shows how different species possess identical structures even though they evolve separately. Convergent evolution typically takes place with the organisms that are not really related.

An example of convergent evolution is the similarity that can be noticed in the wings or the flights of bats, birds, insects, etc

mezya [45]

Answer:

More branching or folds.

Explanation:

Adaptation may be defined as the ability of the organism to adapt and survive according to its environment. Physical, physiological and chemical changes occur in the body of organism for the adaptation process.

The evolution of the increase in the size of the animals might also changes their internal physiology. The lungs and digestive tract also evolved as the size of the organism get bigger. The lungs has the alveoli to increase the surface area and inhalation of more oxygen in the body. Digestive system has villi or folds that increases the surface area for digestion and absorption.

Thus, the answer is more branching or folds.

Una mujer lleva en uno de sus cromosomas X un gen letal recesivo (l), y en el otro alelo dominante normal (L). ¿Cuál es la propo
nlexa [21]

Question in English:

A female carries a recessive lethal gene (l) on one of her X chromosomes, and a normal dominant allele (L) on the other. What is the sex ratio to be expected in this woman's dependency if she marries a normal man?

Answer:

2/3 females

1/3 males

Explanation:

Females have two X chromosomes (XX) and males have an X and a Y chromosome (XY).

The genotype of the female is XLXl. The genotype of the male is XLY, since he is normal.

The possible genotypes are:

<u>                            XL                  Xl</u>

<u>XL</u>                     <em>XLXL             XLXl</em>

<u>Y</u>                       <em>XLY               </em><em>XlY</em>

<em />

All female offspring will be normal as they will always have one normal copy of the X chromosome from their father.

50% of the male offspring will be normal, but 50% will inherit the lethal gene from their mother.

Because the allele is lethal, that means XlY males will not be born.

That means 2/3 of the children will be females, and 1/3 will be males.
