Answer:
1. Molecular evidence: similar proteins and genes found in closely related species, even if those genes are not used by an organism.
2. Fossil evidence: organisms changing form over time through the fossil record.
Direct observation. We can directly observe small-scale evolution in organisms
with short lifecycles (e.g., pesticide-resistant insects).
Explanation:
Surface area is an important factor in limiting cell growth because
a. the cell can burst if the membrane becomes too large.
b. materials cannot enter the cell if the surface is too large.
c. the cell may become too large to take in enough food and to remove enough wastes.
d. waste products cannot leave the cell if the cell is too small.
Answer:
c. the cell may become too large to take in enough food and to remove enough wastes.
Explanation:
The exchange of substances with surroundings is done by cells by the process of diffusion. The rate of diffusion of substances requires the presence of a higher surface area than volume. As the cells become larger, their surface area is reduced with respect to the volume. Therefore, larger cells can not support the diffusion of substances in and out as required for its proper functioning. If cells are allowed to grow continuously, they will not be able to intake the requires materials such as food and to release the waste outside.
The answer is most likely B). 'The harmless bacteria would not have been transformed, and the mice would have lived,' because, then bacterium transform, they use the genetic material present in their environment to do so, and when Avery destroyed the nucleotide bases(Genetic material) with an enzyme he destroyed any chances that the bacteria would have had at transforming into the virulent strain.
Answer:
Producers!
Explanation:
Autotrophs are the foundation of every ecosystem on the planet. That may sound dramatic, but it's no exaggeration! Autotrophs form the base of food chains and food webs, and the energy they capture from light or chemicals sustains all the other organisms in the community. When we're talking about their role in food chains, we can call autotrophs producers.
