Answer:
Shorter beaks will be best for finding food in abundant rainfall.
Answer:
In the cardinals, if the females start using a different criterion than the color of the feather when they choose couple, most likely to happen is that decreased variation in the shades of red because no form of the trait is advantageous.
Explanation:
Options for this question are:
- <em>Increased variation in the shades of red because the selection pressure has been relieved.</em>
- <em>Increased variation in the shades of red because the cardinals try different ways to impress the females.</em>
- <em>Decreased variation in the shades of red because no form of the trait is advantageous.</em>
- <em>Decreased variation in the shades of red because the only reason for variation was selection pressure.</em>
In the context of natural selection, male cardinals court females using the coloring of their feathers as a form of sexual selection. This means that the shades of red in the feathers are a selection criterion in these birds, and the more visible shades represent an advantage.
But, if the selection criterion was not the color of the feathers, this trait would no longer represent an advantage in the competition between the males to be chosen as a mate. Instead, the trait that would determine sexual selection would be the one that experiences an increase in its variation<em>.</em>
Answer:
This question is incomplete
Explanation:
Introns are non-coding regions of a DNA that removed by RNA splicing prior to translation. Alignment is usually done between sequences to see and understand the identity and similarity between two or more sequences.
A region/base is said to be conserved if there is NO change in any base in that particular region. A multiple sequence alignment (MSA) can be used to align the donor sites of all the introns to see the bases that have not "changed" (and still remained in there exact position) hence conserved across all the donor sites.
NOTE: The donor site of an intron is the 5' end, thus the first five bases in the 5' end are to be used here
The dorsal surface in for legged animals is called superior
The correct answer is <u /><em>a</em><em>daption</em>. The particular environment in which a particular environment is exposed to gives it the characteristic or the ability to adapt. This is how a particular ecosystem works. It is the relationship of organisms within their environment that evolves through time in order for it to survive and propagate into more adapted kinds of species.
