Answer:

Here you go bud A functional adaption is an adaption that helps an organism survive. So, the color and shape of a flounder allows it to camouflage itself among the sea floor to hide itself from predators. Flounders ability to camouflage protects them, so they can survive Hope this helps good luck

Hello. This question is incomplete. The complete question is:

"Which scenario is an example of functional adaptation?  A. a male bird let's out a mating call to attract a female bird  B. poison dart frogs produce a roxic venmon that they can secrete out thier skin  C. cobras elongate thier body when threatened  D. the color and shape of a flounder allow it to camouflage."

Answer:

D. the color and shape of a flounder allow it to camouflage.

Explanation:

Functional adaptation is a term used when a living organism adapts its body to the environment so that it helps it to survive. This adaptation may be related to the camouflage of individuals (camouflage helps them survive predator attacks) or the adaptation that allows the glass to generate substances essential to the organism's survival, such as plants that have adapted the way they make photosynthesis.

Among the options given in the question above, one that shows an example of functional adaptation is the letter D.

In genetic engineering, the staggered cuts in dna that allow genes to be spliced together are made by __________.
AleksandrR [38]

The answer is restriction enzymes. These staggered ends are important in recombination of DNA since they allow DNA strands with complementary sticky ends to be easily joined into one piece by DNA ligase. Other restriction enzymes produce blunt ends. These are harder to join by DNA ligase. An example of a restriction ezyme if EcoRI

Use the principle of original horizontality to identify the two rocks that are nearly the same age.
Digiron [165]

The correct answer is - C and D.

The principle of original horizontality means that the rock layers have been order by age, with the layers at the top being the youngest, while the layers at the bottom being the oldest.

In this picture it is little hard to tell which rocks belong to the same layer from first look because there are multiple twists and turns, an uneven surface, caused by pressure on the crust.

By carefully examining the image though, we can trace the layers more properly and see which ones are younger, which older, and which have the same relative age. In this case, we can see that the markings C and D are actually on the same layer of rocks, thus being a good indication that they have the same relative age.

A cell with 80 chromosomes undergoes meiosis. How many chromosomes are found in the daughter cells? How many daughter cells are
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Four daughter cells are produced each with 40 chromosomes. The daughter cells would exhibit genetic variations and would not be genetically identical to each other.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a cell division that forms four daughter cells from one parent cell as two sequential division meiosis I and meiosis II do not include any DNA replication between them. Crossing over during prophase-I of meiosis-I includes the exchange of genetic segments and occurs between the homologous chromosomes. It produces new gene combinations in the daughter cells which were otherwise not present in the parent cell.

Since there is no DNA replication between meiosis I and meiosis II, the daughter cells have half the number of the chromosomes compared to the parent cell. This occurs as homologous chromosomes move towards the opposite pole during anaphase I.

Therefore, a parent cell with 80 chromosomes will make a total of 4 daughter cells by meiosis. Each daughter cell would have 40 chromosomes. These daughter cells would have some new gene combinations and would be genetically dissimilar among themselves.
