biologists is studying two species of lizards in a mountainous region. The two species are separated by habitat with one species

occupying the protected valleys where the other is exposed to high elevation mountain range where conditions are unpredictable. She finds that one species is oviparous and the other ovoviviparous. Which species would you predict would be oviparous and which ovoviviparous and why

Answer:

Valley lizard = Oviparous

Mountain lizard = Viviparous

Explanation:

In Darwin's theory survival of the fittest, he believed species adapt or change within their environment. So I believe lizards living in a valley would be more safe to lay their eggs but lizards living in the mountains would be viviparous because of the non-predicted and unsafe environment which could harm the better chances of development of the offspring.

Answer:

The specie in protected valleys will have ovoviviparous population.

The specie in unprotected environment will have only viviparous population.

Explanation:

viviparous has larger proportion to survive because it have larger hatching success because of favourable environment.

In the peppered moth scenarios what is the variation? And the selection?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Variation is number of alleles for the wing color of the peppered moths. The wing color ranges from pure white to pure back.

Selection pressure is predation by birds.

Explanation:

In the wake of the industrial revolution, white-winged peppered moths had a large allelic frequency in the population compared to black-winged peppered moths. However, when the environment changed due to soot produced by industries (making the environment darker) white-winged peppered moths reduced while that of black moths increased.

This is because black moths were able to blend in and camouflage in the dark environment than white-winged peppered moths that stood out to their predators. Black moths, therefore, had an increased chance of reaching adulthood and passing their genes to the next generation. This increased the allelic frequency of black-winged peppered while that of white-winged moths reduced in the population.

In which of the following ways are DNA and mRNA different?
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

DNA:

Dexoyribonucleic acid is the genetic material of almost all the organisms except some virus. DNA contains deoxyribose sugar that lacks 2'OH group on second carbon. The nitrogenous base pair of DNA are adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine. DNA cannot acts as an enzyme.

RNA:

Ribonucleic acid is present as genetic material in few viruses only. RNA contains oxyribose sugar that has 2'OH group at second position. The nitrogenous base pair of RNA are adenine, guanine, uracil and cytosine. RNA can acts as any enzyme in biological reactions.
