A dichotomous key helps you identify unknown specimens based on their traits because there are only two options available per trait. Selecting one from the two options (usually contrasting characteristics) from each step leads to smaller and smaller groups until the option is reduced to single and unique trait of an organism.
Considering you need to identify an organism. So, on the top of they key is animal with options: (a) with red blood cells and (b) no red blood cells. The option you will select is no red blood cells and under option b, you’re given two choices again: (a) hard bodies and (b) soft bodies. You’ll select soft bodies, then two options again are given: (a) with shell and (b) without shell. The option you’ll select would be without shell, and so on.
Answer: b. Webbed-toed mice survived better and reproduced more than mice without webbed toes.
Explanation:
Natural selection is a phenomenon that suggests that organisms that have a better structural and morphological advantage over the others have better chances of survival over the others.
The webbed toed mice have a survival advantage over the without the webbed toes because this can help the webbed toed mice to swim. The webbed toed trait will be beneficial and passed on to the next generation of the mice and the webbed toed mice will reproduce more than the mice without webbed toes.
The type of glial cells are particularly at risk from the disease are the Schwann cells. This disease is caused by a bacterium, Corynebacterium diphtheriae, and is caused when the bacteria releases a toxin, or poison, into a person's body. The Schwann cells produces insulating myelin sheath that covers the axons of many neurons. These cells may suffers immune or toxic attacks with diphtheria infection.
Answer:
Option c. Only the haploid organism may also reproduce asexually.
Explanation:
It is scientifically approved that algae and fungi are able to form true asexual spores. This process of spore formation involves mitosis and resultant spore is called mito-spore which develop into new offspring.
