Which foundational concepts in biology were merged in the modern synthesis?

The answer would be A because The Modern Synthesis describes the fusion (merger) of Mendelian genetics with Darwinian evolution that resulted in a unified theory of evolution.

Answer:

A. Darwin's theory of evolution and Mendel's ideas of heritability

Explanation:

Modern synthesis is the theory of evolution that combines Darwin's theory of natural selection and principles of Mendelian inheritance. This was done to explain the origin of variations among individuals in the population as proposed by Darwin. Darwin could not explain how variations were created and how these variations were transmitted to future generations. Mendel's laws of inheritance provided an explanation of the basis of the origin of variations and mode of their transmission.  

This is how modern synthesis came into existence.

Which of the following statements is false? A. Tissues exist within organs which exist within organ systems. B. Communities exis
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer: The correct answer is option B

Explanation:

The correct hierarchy level is

Organelles-cells-tissue-organ-organ system-organism-population-community-ecosystem-biosphere.

Community refers to the group of populations of two or more species located in the specific area. Thus, populations exist within community which exist within ecosystem.

Thus, option B is incorrect.

Large tsunamis may be only centimeters high when travelling in deep water. Maintaining a reliable tsunami detection and warning
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

b. Scientists are interested in incorporating knowledge of how dolphins accurately transmit and receive information into the design of their tsunami detection networks. The scientists will probably want to investigate if there are any impacts of these networks on dolphins in the area.

Explanation:

Scientists want to study communication between dolphins because these animals are able to establish efficient communication with each other even over long distances. With the knowledge of this communication, scientists can incorporate similar factors into their tsunami information transmission system, so it will be easier to accurately transmit and receive information in the design of their tsunami detection networks.

However, it is necessary for scientists to include in the study, the possible impacts that this system of transmitting information about tsunamis can have on the dolphin population.

In summary, we can say that scientists are interested in incorporating knowledge of how dolphins transmit and receive information accurately in the design of their tsunami detection networks. However, scientists must investigate whether there is any impact of these nets on dolphins in the region.

Why is a skeptical attitude important in science?
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer and explanation;

-Some form of skepticism is essential to the scientific method. Ideally, researchers would form hypothesis based on a-prior theories or previous empirical evidence and use formal methods to test them.

-Skepticism can be defined as the attitude of subjecting claims to increasingly difficult tests before accepting them.

-Scientists are 'pretty confident' that life evolves on Earth according to the forces of natural selection because every single test they have made is consistent with this process. They do not 'know' that this is true but they are extremely confident.
