Identify each adaptation as structural or behavioral adaptations.

Biology
1 answer:
Zina [86]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Monkeys have a prehensile tail that allows them to grab and hold onto tree branches - structural

Moose make mating calls to locate potential mates - behavioral

Whales are covered in a thick layer of blubber, insulating their bodies in cold ocean waters - structural

Humans have five toes on each foot to help them maintain balance - structural

Many birds migrate south for the winter in search of food - behavioral

Explanation:

The structural adaptations are adaptations that help the organisms to survive in their environment through development of physical traits that give them an advantage. Such adaptations are the thick layer of blubber of the whales, the five toes of the humans, prehensile tail of the monkeys, rotational toe of the clouded leopard, long of the giraffe etc. The behavioral adaptations are adaptations that help the organisms to survive in their environment, but they manifested through their actions, not their physical traits. Such adaptations are the mating calls of the moos, the migration of the birds in winter, the hibernation of the bears etc.

Complete the graphic organizer to summarize exceptions to Mendels principles
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

<em>Exceptions to Mendel's principles: </em>

Does exceptions mean that Mendel was "wrong"? The answer is "NO". It means that we know more today about diseases, genes, and heredity than compared to what he expalined 150 years ago. Here I have summerized the exceptions with examples:

<em>Incomplete dominance</em>: When an organism is heterozygous for a trait and both genes are expressed but not completely.

<em>Example</em><em>:</em> SnapDragon Flowers

<em>Codominance</em>: When 2 different alleles are present and both alleles are expressed.

<em>Example</em>: Black Feathers + Whites feathers --> Black and white speckled feathers

<em>Multiple alleles</em>: Three or more alternative forms of a gene (alleles) that can occupy the same locus.

Example: Bloodtype

<em>Polygenic traits</em>: more than one gene controls a particular phenotype

Example: human height, Hair color, weight, and eye, hair and skin color.

Compare and contrast the structure and function of a compound light microscope and a dissecting microscope. Be sure to discuss w
TiliK225 [7]
<span>Compound Microscope Compound microscope is commonly used in the schools and colleges. It comes under the category of microscopes used in biology. It has two lenses namely the objective lens and the ocular lens. It provides a magnification of 1500X. Eyepiece lens is of 10X or 15X power. It is used to observe bacterial, protozoa, various cells, etc.

</span><span>Dissecting Microscope It is also called stereo microscope. Its magnification power is less than the other microscope. It gives a 3 dimensional picture. Due to the low magnifying power they are used to observe little bigger objects than other microscopes. They are used in the surgeries, dissection, forensic science etc.</span>

How many chromosomes, and which chromosomes, does each of the dughter cells contain
labwork [276]

The question is incomplete. However, if we consider this cell as human cell - the cell contain 23 pairs of chromosomes.

Answer:

Chromosomes consists of the constricted DNA associated with the proteins. Different species has different chromosome number. Two main types of chromosomes are heterochromatin and euchromatin.

The human cells contain the 23 pairs of chromosomes or 46 chromosome. If the cell divides by the process of mitosis than the chromosome number will be same in parent as well as the daughter cell. The daughter cell 23 pairs of chromosomes. If the cell divides by the process of mitosis the cell has 23 chromosome number as the meiosis reduces the chromosome number upto half.
