Allen’s Rule refers to organisms in cold climates with round body form which has a smaller surface area to volume ratios. Larger bodies are more compact and retain heat.
<span>Bergmann’s Rule refers to organisms in which body size is large in cold climates and small in warm climates. Large bodies have a smaller surface area to volume ratios. In warm climates where you need to expel heat, so bodies are smaller and more linear.</span>

Which is not a major similarity or difference between freshwater and marine ecosystems?
levacccp [35]
<span>The correct answer is b. ocean and freshwater system conditions generally remain constant throughout the year. This is not true because they are very different. For examples, freshwater rivers can completely freeze during the winter while oceans can't freeze completely, not even a bit. Also, the animals inside have completely different body structures to fight these changes.</span>

Observation of Diffusion Rate in Relation to Cell Size
vesna_86 [32]

Explanation:

new cells rather than growing bigger. Why is this ?

There are two main reasons why cells divide rather than continuing to grow larger and larger: ... If the cell grows too large, it will have trouble moving enough nutrients and wastes across the cell membrane. Cell Division. Cell division is the process by which cellular material is divided between two new daughter cells.

Why aren't you made of a few dozen, or a

few hundred cells, instead of trillions?

if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume. When this happens, the cell must divide into smaller cells with favorable surface area/volume ratios, or cease to function. That is why cells are so small.

Why don't single-celled organisms like amoebas and paramecia grow

as big as a human?     again The important point is that the surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger. Thus, if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume.

i belive this is just the introduction to the project but here

a man with blood group A marries a woman with blood group O and their daughter has blood group O. Is this information enough to
Nonamiya [84]
This information is not enough to tell which of the traits-blood group A or O is dominant.
It is known that blood groups A and B are codominant, which means both will express if found together in a heterozygote. However, blood group O is recessive. But from this information, you can conclude that blood group O is dominant. Why is that so?
Let's imagine that father's genotype is AA and mothers' genotype OO and cross them:
Parents:               AA    x    OO
Offspring:      AO    AO   AO    AO
Since we have information that daughter has blood group O, we can conclude that O is dominant over A and mask it. This is not true! In this case, the daughter will have blood group A.

Mother's genotype surely is OO (because O allele is recessive, so to express a recessive trait both alleles must be recessive). But, the father cannot be AA, because it must give O allele to the daughter so she can have genotype OO and blood group O. So, the father's genotype is AO.  Let's take a look at that crossing:
Parents:         AO   x    OO
Offspring:   AO   AO   OO   OO
Thus, in this case, daughter can have genotype OO and blood group O.
