cestrela7 [59]4 years ago
8 0

Answer: More than 99 percent of all organisms that have ever lived on Earth are extinct. As new species evolve to fit ever changing ecological niches, older species fade away. But the rate of extinction is far from constant. At least a handful of times in the last 500 million years, 75 to more than 90 percent of all species on Earth have disappeared in a geological blink of an eye in catastrophes we call mass extinctions.

Though mass extinctions are deadly events, they open up the planet for new forms of life to emerge. The most studied mass extinction, which marked the boundary between the Cretaceous and Paleogene periods about 66 million years ago, killed off the nonavian dinosaurs and made room for mammals and birds to rapidly diversify

Which body system includes vitamin D production and protection against pathogens and excess water loss?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

A. Integumentary system

Explanation:

The integumentary system consists of the skin,hair and nail. This system consists of the largest organ in the body. The skin helps in protection against pathogens by shielding the internal body system from external objects.

The skin also helps in Vitamin D production through sunlight.

It also helps to prevent dehydration through regulation of water loss.

Explain briefly about how<br>implantation of embryo take<br>place<br>in the uterus.​
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Implantation is the mechanism by which a blastocyst, which is passing through the uterus as a developing embryo, makes contact with the uterine wall and remains bound to it before birth. The uterine lining (endometrium) undergoes several internal modifications in order to allow for the emerging blastocyst to bind to it.

The diagram represents a model of DNA replication.
mr_godi [17]

Although there is no attachment, the best answer would be option B.

DNA replication occurs in opposite directions along a strand of DNA.

The leading strand is replicated continuously in the 5' to 3' direction towards the replication fork.

The lagging strand is replicated discontinuously in the 5' to 3' with segments of DNA known as Okazaki fragments.

in a 3-point cross, crossovers that occur during the formation of which gametes can be scored using the phenotype of f2 progeny?
JulsSmile [24]

In gametes generated by F1 tri-hybrids and gametes produced by parents from true-breeding populations.

When non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material during meiosis, novel allelic combinations are created in the daughter cells. The locations of three genes in the genome of an organism are identified using a three-point cross. A homozygous recessive individual is crossed with a person who is heterozygous for three mutations, and the progeny's phenotypes are graded. When F1 progeny are self-pollinated, a 3:1 ratio of F2 progeny are created.

Use the information gathered in the Epistasis animation to answer the question. Although both dominance and epistasis involve ma
Dafna11 [192]

Dominance involves one allele masking another at the same locus whereas epistasis involves one locus masking a different locus.

Explanation:

Epistasis is a type of gene interaction in which one gene masks or modifies the expression of another gene at a distinct locus.

Dominance refers to the gene interaction in which one allele of a given gene masks the expression of another alllele of same gene.

The comparison of dominance and epistasis give the following  information:

  • Dominance  involves  allelic suppression while epistasis involves non-allelic suppression.
  • Dominance involves a single pair of alleles while epistasis involves two pairs of allele.
  • In dominance, the expression of recessive allele is suppressed while in epistasis, either recessive or dominant  non allele is suppressed.
  • The effect of dominance is due to the dominant allele while epistasis may be due to dominant or recessive allele.
