<h2>Evolution </h2>

Explanation:

  • According to Lamarck's theory of evolution, fossils are the direct evidence of evolution and nucleotide evidences are the direct evidence of molecular evolution
  • This theory also states that organs which are used in priority will develop and the organs which are not used by priority will disintegrate
  • Lamarck said that vestigial organs in different organisms are the direct evidence of use and disuse of organs
  • This was not correct because organisms develop new characters according to their need in environmental conditions, these new characters are developed by character displacement and allowed by natural selection and not by Lamarck's theory
  • According to survival of the fittest the individuals which have superior genotype will be more acclimatized for the changing environmental conditions and the individuals with inferior genotype cannot maintain themselves according to the changing environmental conditions thus eliminated
  • The individuals with superior genotype are most fit for the changing environmental conditions thus survive well and gets opportunity to reproduce
  • Every individual of a population have a selection pressure which decides that which will get opportunity to thrive well or will be eliminated from the population, this kind of selection pressure is called natural selection
  • Natural selection promotes best fit genotype according to the changing environmental conditions and eliminates the other genotype thus leading to genetic drift

List in order the various fluid compartments that a glucose molecule would encounter beginning with absorption from the lumen of
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The correct list of compartments glucose enter is :

The lumen > plasma (extracellular fluid) > interstitial fluid (extracellular fluid) >   the skeletal muscle cell (intracellular fluid)

Explanation:

The glucose molecule would start from the lumen of the intestine where is absorbed. The glucose enters the plasma a part of the circulatory system known as extracellular fluid.

The glucose also encounters another type of extracellular fluid the interstitial fluid that is not in the circulatory system. At the last glucose as it is entering the skeletal muscle cell the last fluid compartment, which is intracellular fluid. This fluid is inside the cells.

How do airplanes stay in the air?
victus00 [196]

Answer:A plane's engines are designed to move it forward at high speed. That makes air flow rapidly over the wings, which throw the air down toward the ground, generating an upward force called lift that overcomes the plane's weight and holds it in the sky. ... The wings force the air downward and that pushes the plane upward.

Use a Punnett square diagram to show why, for each pregnancy, the chances of giving birth to either a boy or a girl are 50-50. E
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Because the offspring of a male and female are always going to be xx, xx, xy, or xy.

Explanation:

Remember that men have different reproductive chromesomes than women. Women have 2 x chromesomes(xx) while men have 1 x and 1 y(xy). These are given down to their offspring.

So we can write the this out in a punnet square as(link down below).

After you see the visual, you will find that the genotypes are xx, xx, xy, xy.

As I said above, women have sex chromesomes xx, while men have sex chromesomes xy. When you match the genotypes on the punnet square with the ones we know from men and women, we find that two of them match with men and two match with female.

So with this, we can conclude that 2/4 of offspring will always be male and 2 will be female. And as you well know 2/4 is 1/2 which is 50%.
