The following are the characteristics of Cnidaria:
1. The organisms have specialized stinging cells known as cnidocytes.
2. Two types of body plans exist, that is, polyp and medusa.
3. The phenomenon of alternation of generation is observed.
The following are the characteristics of Porifera:
1. The organisms lack symmetry.
2. The adult forms are sessile.
3. The organisms obtain food by filtering water.
Answer:
that's not a good idea, most teachers search the web to check for plagiarism, and if they did they would see this question. but I'd say to go over the main facts, such as their diet, their ecosystem, and animals that prey on them. then add a few facts as space fillers if you need to.
Using the graph provided with the question, we are able to find that that for a concentration of 270 micromol per kilogram, the calcification rate is 20 mmol calcium carbonate per meter squared per day.
Using this calcification rate,
30 = 20 * 1 * days
days = 1.5
The deposition will require 1.5 days.
Answer:
The "short tail" dominant allele is easier to eliminate by selective breeding.
Explanation:
The only way for a recessive allele to be expressed (be visible) is when it appears as recessive homozygotic. These means the organisms need to have 2 copies of the gene. Selective breeding is based on the characteristics that one can see, so if the organism shows the "dilute" phenotype you can keep reproducing this individuals and get rid of the dominant allele.
On the other hand if you have a population with the dominant phenotype, you discard all the ones that have a recessive trait and you breed the dominant phenotype you could still get individuals with the recessive phenotype and individuals that express the dominant phenotype but are heterozygous.
