Biology

LenKa [72]3 years ago
7 0
Most organisms are Diploid, and as a result, they will have received 2 copies of the chromosomes, or sets of chromosomes, from both their parents. This they will have 2 sets of Genes that will perform almost exact same process, except with different phenotypes.

These chromosomes need to be homologous, in order for new alleles and other genetic combinations to be made.

In most cases, the two major climatic factors affecting the distribution of organisms in terrestrial ecosystems are _____. In mo
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Water and temperature

Explanation:

Water and temperature are the two most important factors that regulate the distribution of organisms in terrestrial habitats. Water is required for survival by living beings. The availability of water is limited in many habitats such as desert habitats. In such land habitats with water scarcity, the organisms adapted to withstand the limited water availability are found.

Likewise, temperature also affects the distribution of organisms in terrestrial habitats. The presence of temperature conditions below and above the tolerance range of the organisms restricts their geographical distribution. Temperature regulates the enzyme kinetics. Metabolic pathways are catalyzed by enzymes that function under optimal temperature conditions only. Water serves as a medium for metabolic reactions and also regulates body temperature.
