Imagine there are 25 different species of protists living in a tide pool. Some of these speciesreproduce both sexually and asexu

ally, and some of them can reproduce only asexually. The poolgradually becomes infested with disease-causing viruses and bacteria. Which species are morelikely to thrive in the changing environment?
A)the asexually reproducing species
B)cannot tell from this information-survival will depend on a variety of other factors
C)Sexually and asexually reproducing species are equally likely to thrive.
D)the sexually reproducing species

Answer:

D)the sexually reproducing species

Explanation:

  • Sexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction in which two parents are required to generate an offspring.
  • As this mode of reproduction requires two parents, the genetic composition of the offspring is a mixture of both the parents and hence, sexual reproduction gives rise to genetic variation.
  • Genetic variation is essential to survive in a changing environment as it can lead to the development of certain characters that prove to be essential for survival.
  • Therefore, if there are 25 different species of protists in the tide pool, it is the sexually reproducing species that will be able to thrive in the changing environment as their offsprings will have genetic variation and this may lead to a positive natural selection.

Lunna [17]

Answer:

1. Aorta

2. Left atrium

3. Right ventricle

4. The pulmonary artery

5. Left ventricle.

Explanation:

The aorta is the main artery of the body that carries the oxygen-rich blood to all the body parts except the lungs from the left ventricle. It is divided into main coronary arteries or blood vessels.

The left atrium is one of the heart chambers, it is located in the upper part of the heart on the right side that receives the oxygenated blood from the lungs through the pulmonary vein.

The right ventricle is the chamber of the heart that pumps the deoxygenated blood to the pulmonary valve to MPA to the lungs to get oxygenated.

The pulmonary artery or the main PA (MPA) carries the oxygen-depleted blood from the right ventricle into the lungs, where blood becomes oxygenated.

The Left ventricle is the thickest muscle chamber of the heart responsible for the pumping oxygen-rich blood to the circulatory system and to the body through the aorta.

Almost all animals share the following characteristics except
Aleks [24]

The correct answer is A.

Animal cells do not have a  cell wall.

A cell wall is the rigid, outermost covering of plant cells and is made up of cellulose.  It is absent in animal cells. The cell wall is visible under a light microscope.

Animal cells are instead covered by a cell membrane. It is made up of lipids, proteins, and small amounts carbohydrates. It is a thin and delicate structure  that can only be seen using an electron microscope.
