Which adaptation is unique to insects among all protostomes?

The evolution of wings and the ability to move by flying is a unique adaptation of insects among all protostomes. During the pre-adaptation, their wings might held the respiratory structures for greater exchange of gases or it function as a protective shields over their leg joints.

Moreover, like dragonflies that are unable to tuck their wings when at rest, the next evolutionary burst is the foldable wings they have. These insects includes locusts and stoneflies.

I think it is the ability to move by flying. Protostomes are one of the two groups of animals having a true body cavity (coelom) and are believed to share a common ancestor. They include the mollusks, annelids, and arthropods. In this animals the blastopore becomes the mouth. Other characteristics include, they have true tissues, they have bilateral symmetry, and that the mouth develop before the anus in during embryonic development.

How does carbon move through the system when in the dark?

Ksju [112]

If referring to photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is brought into the cholorplast of the plant cell, it is then fixed to RUBP, it will go through a series of Redox reactions and become G3P. RUBP is then recycled and is used to fix more carbon dioxide. You need two G3P molecules to become glucose.

I think meiosis is the process that creates gametes. It is creating sperm or egg, where does it actually start? what I am asking

~Hello There!~

Meiosis is a form of cell division that results in four daughter cells. It is germline cells (gametes) that undergo this process.

Hope This Helps You!

Good Luck :)

Answer:

Gene therapy

Explanation:

Gene therapy can be defined as the methodologies used to modify/restore the expression of target genes and thus cure and treat genetic disorders. Gene therapy approaches consist of delivering specific nucleic acids (either RNA or DNA) in the cells of the individual to be treated. Some of the most important gene therapy approaches include the use of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) in order to block target gene expression, adenovirus vectors to insert genes into host cells, the use of the CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing system to insert specific sequences by the mechanism of homologous recombination, etc.
