Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

Genotype is the set of genes of a living being.

The phenotype is the external characters, what we see with the naked eye.

Similar characteristics

-both depend on the genes

-Both can be beneficial or not

Different features

-the genotype includes expressed and unexpressed genes and the phenotype only includes expressed genes

-the genotype is known by some type of analysis, and the phenotype is known only by looking at the individual

If more individuals are born with the advantageous trait in each generation, over time what do you predict will happen to the pe
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

The percentage (%) of the alleles that code for this trait in the population will increase, as more individuals are born with the trait.

Explanation:

The more individuals get born expressing the trait, the higher its frequency gets in the population. By generation, there are more individuals carrying the allele for the advantageous trait. These individuals reproduce and increase the probabilities of the progeny to inherit the mentioned allele. When this sequence keeps occurring in the population over many generations, the allele percentage will increase. On the other hand, the other allele or alleles will decrease. Probably, if there are no changes that might influence or affect this pattern, the alleles for the advantageous trait will fixate, while the other allele might get lost.

Use Darwin's theory of Natural Selection to explain the process by which the four-legged land animal, A, may have evolved, over
Len [333]

Answer:

Due to environmental conditions.

Explanation:

With the passage of time, environmental conditions change which causes the evolution of of four legged land animals from fish like creature. This change occurs due to change in environment. In water, there is no need for legs because fish moves with the help of fins and tail but the organisms that lives on land has legs in order to move from one place to another so we can say that change in the physical structure of organism occurs due to environment.

Within a gymnosperm megasporangium, which of the following developmental sequences is correct, assuming fertilization occurs? Gr
yan [13]

Within a gymnosperm megasporangium, the following developmental sequences that are correct, assuming fertilization occurs is: megaspore, female gametophyte, egg cell, sporophyte embryo. The last Option (Option D) is correct.

In gymnosperm megasporangium, the meiotic division produces four haploid megaspores from a single cell, three of which generally degenerate. The female gametophyte is formed by mitosis from the surviving megaspore.

Prior to fertilization, the male mature gametophyte needs to be transferred to the female gametophyte for fertilization to take place.

When the nuclei of the sperm encounter the nucleus of the egg cell in gymnosperms, it fuses with the egg nucleus to produce a diploid zygote.

Mitosis occurs in the fertilized egg to initiate the growth of a new sporophyte generation (the multicellular embryo of the seed.)

Therefore, we can conclude that we've understood the mechanism of developmental sequence in the gymnosperm megasporangium.
