<h2>C) is the correct option</h2>

Explanation:

The change observed in flower color is most likely due to genes being expressed in different ways due to environmental conditions

  • Genes control a particular trait or characteristic in an organism or plant
  • In the given plant (Hydrangea), it has blue flowers when grown in acidic soil and has pink flowers when grown in basic soil but the clone of pink flowered plant grown in acidic soil produces blue flowers
  • Here, acidic and basic soils are the external environmental conditions and difference in flower color is decided by the type of soil in which plant is grown

When you eat salmon for dinner, your digestive system will break down that food
zimovet [89]

Answer:   c. Amino Acids

Explanation:

Food is chemically and mechanically broken down into smaller particles like building blocks, the smallest of these are a basic unit called monomers. In the <em>stomach</em>, the enzyme pepsin breaks proteins, like those found in salmon, into smaller peptides by splitting the peptide bonds holding the proteins together. The <em>duodenum</em> processes these newly-formed peptide chains or polypeptides, into smaller ones, through the enzyme action of elastase, trypsin and chymotrypsin; these are produced in the pancreas. Peptidases convert these fragments into amino acid monomers for absorption into the bloodstream via the small intestines.

You are an expert paleontologist reviewing the work of Professor Bonefinder, who recently discovered the remains of a primate fo
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The professor Bonefinder has made a mistake.

Explanation:

I't is true the Hominoid had a long snout, a large orbits that are partially enclosed, but they have no tail. This point is really critical because the morphology of an species is really important. The taxonomists use the information that morphology gave for many years to identify species, nowadays with molecular techniques some of those species are pulled apart, but the important matter is that hominoids had no tail.

So the professor Bonefinder analysis is incorrect because the hominoids have no tail.
