Answer: The correct option is
E. a woodpecker using his sharp beak
Explanation:
This is because a structural adaptations refer to characteristics or traits that animals possess and they use in order to adapt or survive in their environment. These refer to the physical characteristics of the animals.
From the question, a wood pecker using a sharp beak is an example of structural because the beak is the characteristics the wood pecker is using to survive in it's environment.
Answer:
Answer: It will increase because coyotes are the competition.
Explanation:
An ecological niche can be defined as the functional role which an organism performs in the ecosystem in order to sustain it's life. The functional roles include how an organism obtains it's food, type of food eaten by the organism, type of habitat chosen by the organism and type of breeding season used by the organism.
In the given situation, both coyotes and rattlesnakes are dependent upon the same ecological niche that is they are dependent upon mouse as a primary part of their diets. As, both coyotes and rattlesnakes are dependent upon the same diet there may exist the competition between the two species. But it is mentioned that the coyote population is decreasing therefore the population of rattlesnake will most likely increase as the competition for the same diet decreased.
Answer:
10% of progeny would have wild type phenotype
Explanation:
True breeding fly with wild type wings and small eyes: De/De
True breeding fly with downward wings and wild type eyes: dE/dE
Cross between them : De/De X dE/dE = De/dE ( F1 )
Recombination frequency = 20%
Next cross, De/dE X de/de =
De/de = parental = 40%
dE/de = parental = 40%
DE/de = recombinant = 10%
de/de = recombinant = 10%
The third genotype i.e. one of the recombinant genotypes will have the wild type makeup ( DE/de ) hence 10% of flies would have wild type phenotype.
The outer core is believed to behave most like a liquid.
