Ladybugs are among the 450,000 species of beetles. They vary with size, color, number of spots, and color of the spots. Asian beetles, which are the ladybugs with no spots, are what you are probably seeing.
The spots and the color are used as a warning for predators, such as many poisonous frogs.
Niche construction is the process by which an organism alters its own (or another species') local environment. These alterations can be a physical change to the organism's environment or encompass when an organism actively moves from one habitat to another to experience a different environment.
Answer:
O Fruit fly gametes have 2 chromosomes while parent cells have 4 chromosomes.
Explanation:
The fruit fly is a diploid (2n) species with a chromosome number equal to 4, which means that somatic cells have two sets of homologous chromosomes, each set composed of two chromosomes (2n = 4). Moreover, fly gametes are haploid (n) cells, containing each a complete set of two non-homologous chromosomes (i.e., half the amount of DNA compared to parent cells). During meiosis, a single cell divides twice following one complete round of DNA replication, producing thus four gametes with a haploid number of chromosomes.
Answer:
B) speciation.
Explanation:
The Galapagos island is known for the different varieties of finches (species of birds) which could be distinguished on the basis of different beak shapes and size.
This is the result of the selection pressure which led to the divergence of the species on the island through a mechanism called adaptive radiation.
Since the adaptive radiation leads to the formation of different species on the same island, the process of formation species is known as the speciation.
Thus, speciation is the correct answer.
<span>There are many differences between these groups. Including the sporangia size and structure, type of spores produced, structure of the gametophyte generations, the way each generation lives, some are parasitic some aren't, the habitat. etc. It would require a detailed list of information. Try looking up basic characteristics of each group and making a table to compare them to the ferns. You could use: sporangia, gametes, sporophyte appearance, habitat etc.
They are all vascular by the way, including ferns. The familiar mosses are not, they are Bryophyes which you have not asked about. The club mosses for example are Lycophytes, and very dissimilar to familiar moss.</span><span>
