4 facts on cork cells

<span>Cork cells are plant cells on the outer edge of the trunks/limbs of woody plants. The cell wall is made of suberin, which doesn't let gas or water through. In essence, this helps keep the water in and unwanted things (like pathogens) out. The inside of the cell is usually empty, but may have a few traces of things depending on species. These cells don't replicate and are generally considered to be dead.</span>

Which of the following represents an abiotic component of a forest community? A) the oak and hickory trees B) the mushrooms grow
mixas84 [53]
Abiotic refers to NONLIVING things. Such as rocks..

Sooooo it would be water because although there are so many living things in water the actual chemical compound of H2O is nonliving.

What two types of evolutionary evidence, taken together, provide strong evidence for when extinct species most likely diverged f
Black_prince [1.1K]

Homologous and analogous structures are two types of evolutionary evidence, taken together, provide strong evidence for when extinct species most likely diverged from common ancestors, relative to other events happening on Earth.

Several types of evidence support the theory of evolution: If two or more species share a unique physical feature, such as a complex bone structure or body plan, they can all inherit this property from the common ancestor. Physical traits shared through evolutionary history (common ancestor) they say they are homologous. Not all physical properties that look similar are signs of common ancestry. Some physical similarities instead are analogous: they evolved independently in different organisms because organisms lived in similar environments or experienced similar selective pressures.

Suppose the fictional condition lycanthropy is an autosomal dominant disorder that causes an affected person to have a strong ph
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Sperm undergo more mitotic cellular divisions than egg and therefore have a higher risk of developing a spontaneous mutation.  

Explanation:

As you have seen in the question above, lycanthropy is a mutation that is more likely to be established as the supply of male gametes comes from older men. This is because sperm undergo more mitotic cell divisions than eggs, and therefore are at greater risk of developing a spontaneous mutation.

In order for you to understand this, you need to know that eggs (which are female gametes) are produced at once in a woman's body. Thus, cell division is limited and therefore the opportunity for spontaneous mutations to occur is also limited. However, men produce sperm from adolescence to death, creating the need for countless cell divisions, which can develop genetic errors that create spontaneous mutations in gametes.

zzz [600]

Answer;

-Evolution by natural selection

-The theory of evolution by natural selection states that organisms that are better suited for their environment will survive and reproduce, while those that are poorly suited for their environment will die off.

Explanation;

-The theory of evolution encompasses the well established scientific view that organic life on our planet has changed over long periods of time and continues to change by a process known as natural selection.

-Natural selection is the phenomenon that some traits confer a reproductive advantage (fitness), resulting in (a statistical expectation of) that trait increasing in the population over time (evolution).

A new mutation arises in one person on the island of Kiribati (human population size 100,000). Assuming this particular mutation
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

0.999999 ≈ 1

Explanation:

In a population ( N ) there is the presence of 2N alleles in the population also chance of fixation can be expressed as ; 1/ 2N

Therefore the probability that the mutation will be lost due to genetic drift

= 2N - 1 / 2N ---- ( 1 )

given that ; N = 100,000

back to equation 1

P ( losing mutation due to genetic drift ) = ((2*100,000) - 1 )) / ( 2* 100,000 )

= ( 200,000 - 1 ) / 200,000

= 0.999999 ≈ 1
