Answer:
D)
Explanation:
If the explosion doesn't alter the Earth's rotation, the lack of moon would cause the Earth to rotate at a constant speed. This means that every day would be 24 hours long for the rest of the Earth's existence. The Earth's tides would also change because the gravity the moon exerts on the oceans would no longer exist.
Answer:
The phenomenon is called convergent evolution
Explanation:
Convergent evolution is the name given to the evolutionary phenomenon whereby a similar characteristic appears independently in two unrelated species, that is, that do not have a direct common ancestor from whom they could inherit that characteristic. Similar characteristics resulting from evolutionary convergence are called analogues or homoplasms (from the Greek, “shaped in the same way”). This process is very common and can be explained by natural selection, since similar selective pressures tend to favor similar adaptations.
Answer:
This question lacks options, the options are:
A. Halved
B. Doubled (x2)
C. Quadrupled (x4)
D. Octupled (x8)
The answer is B.
Explanation:
Via the process of meiosis, gametes are formed in order for sexual reproduction to occur. However, the chromosomal content of the gametes are reduced by half. According to this question, a germ cell is said to have 2 sets of chromosomes i.e. diploid, meaning that each daughter cell after meiosis will have one set of chromosome (haploid, n).
However, before any form of division can occur, the DNA (genetic material) of the cell must be replicated i.e. doubled in order to ensure that each resulting gamete has enough chromosomes. This is applicable in this question as well as the DNA in the germ cell must be DOUBLED (×2) via replication in order to have enough DNA for each gamete.
