4) If a dead organism is preserved as a fossil, which body tissues are most likely to survive? Why?
IrinaVladis [17]
The answer is hard tissue.

Usually, hard tissue, such as bones and teeth or exoskeleton is much more preserved than soft tissue (organs, skin, etc.). Fossils become fossils by a process of mineralization. Hard tissues are more mineralized during life than organs. So it is no surprise that hard tissues take part in the process of mineralization and is preserved in fossils, unlike soft tissues.

If you were designing a lander to work on mars, where on earth would you test it? Why?
emmasim [6.3K]
Hmm good question. Well I would have to test it for where there are no living life. I would have to build another NASA in the County because there is plenty of room there. Mars is made out of Dusty Crust that is about 30 miles thick. And let's say that the desert's Dusty Crust is about 5 miles - 15 miles thick. That will give about the same amount of surface that mars has. So we would know what to build for a perfect lander to work on Mars. This isn't much but it is something.

Si se aparean especies diferentes como por ejemplo el cruce entre caballos y burros; podemos afirmar que si llegan a tener desce
White raven [17]

Answer:

El híbrido va a ser esteril.

Explanation:

En la cruza entre dos especies distintas, cuando ocurre, existen distintos mecanismos de aislamiento reproductivo, que son barreras que inhiben o interrumpen el flujo génico entre especies distintas. Es decir que no habrá exito reproductivo de estas cruzas. Se trata de caracteres biológicos propios de cada especie que previenen la reproducción con otras especies.

Estos mecanismos de aislamiento reproductivo pueden ser precigóticos o postcigóticos.  

  1.Pre-copulatorios o pre-cigóticos:

  • Ecológico o por aislamiento de hábitat;
  • Estacional o temporal;
  • Sexual o etológico;
  • Mecánico;
  • Por incompatibilidad de gametas.  

  2. Post-copulatorios o cigóticos:

  • Inviabilidad del híbrido;
  • Esterilidad del híbrido;
  • Híbrido con viabilidad o fertilidad disminuido;
  • Interacciones citoplasmáticas.

La mula es producto de la cruza entre dos especies distintas: una yegua (Equus ferus caballus) y un burro (Equus africanus asinus). Es un ejemplo de la accion de mecanismo poscigótico, en el cual se forma un híbrido viable esteril. Este ejemplar puede nacer, crecer y sobrevivir, pero que no puede producir gametas funcionales, por lo cual no puede reproducirse.
