Answer:
Darwin's theory consisted of two main points; 1) diverse groups of animals evolve from one or a few common ancestors; 2) the mechanism by which this evolution takes place is natural selection. This SparkNote will first take a look at Origin of the Species, and then more closely examine Darwin's theories.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Assume that allele A is the dominant allele that produces the dominant phenotype (tall) in plants that have at least one allele A, and allele a is the recessive allele that produces the recessive phenotype (short) in plants that have two alleles a.
In the parental generation, a true-breeding tall plant has the AA genotype (phenotype: tall), and a true-breeding short plant has the aa genotype (phenotype: short).
We have the Gregor Mendel's cross as in the image attached here.
All of the F1 generation (offspring plants) have the Aa heterozygous genotype, and therefore, they are all tall.
The answer is c (the offspring plants have a genotype that was different from that of both parents).
Answer:
All the statements are true except the second i. e. the soil quality in an ecosystem Does not matter as much as soil quantity.
Explanation:
In an ecosystem both quality and quantity of water is very important. If the quality of water is not suitable, that it contains polluted substances so the health of the organism such as fishes and other aquatic animals will adversely affected and sometimes dealth occurs and the ecosystem will be negatively affected.
Answer:
D. Fibrocartilage
Explanation:
In order to understand the question, we need to review the structure of intervertebral discs.
Intervertebral discs consist of two parts:
It forms the central part of the intervertebral disc and consists of mucoid substance.
It is composed of encircling layers of fibrocartilage and fibrous tissue surrounding the nucleus pulposus
<u>SLIPPED DISC:</u>
It is characterized by the protrusion of nucleus pulposus through the annulus fibrosus accompanied by the compression of spinal nerves.
Patient may present with loss of sensory sensations or pain or both.
<u>CORRECT ANSWER:</u>
From the above review, the correct answer is <u>D. fibrocartilage</u> as it forms the annulus fibrosus.
