Biology

gladu [14]3 years ago
3 0

Cleaving a flatworm into pieces would not kill the flatworm as each piece would turn into a new flatworm. The mechanism is known as fragmentation. In multicellular species, fragmentation refers to a kind of asexual reproduction in which a species gets cleaved into fragments.  

Each of these fragments forms into completely developed, mature individuals, which are similar to their parents. Fragmentation is also called splitting, it is a mode of reproduction witnessed in various species like molds, filamentous cyanobacteria, lichens, various plants, and animals like flatworms, sponges, sea stars, and some annelids.

The less-dense material rises, often forming a mountain or elevated area of the seafloor.

Anestetic [448]
The measurements taken by Jay are least likely to contain random errors.

When you increase the number of measurements, the random errors tend to minimize, because errors in one direction cancel with errors in the opposed direction.
