Answer

Lamarckism, a theory of evolution based on the principle that physical changes in organisms during their lifetime—such as greater development of an organ or a part through increased use—could be transmitted to their offspring.

Lamarck believed that the stretching elongated the giraffe's neck, which became a useful characteristic and was passed onto future generations. This resulted in the length of the giraffe's neck increasing over time. It is now commonly accepted that Lamarck's ideas were wrong.

What is meiosis and what happens in the result of it?
zlopas [31]

Answer: Meiosis is a type of cell division in which a cell divides twice to produce four identical daughter cells each with a haploid number of chromosomes. The result of meiosis is four identical daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

Explanation: There are basically two types of cell division: Mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis is a process in which a cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell while meiosis is a process in which a cell divides twice to produce four identical daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Meiosis occurs in sex cells or gametes (sperm and egg). This produces gametes with haploid chromosomes of chromosomes (23 chromosomes). Mitosis occurs in somatic or body cells resulting in cells with diploid number of chromosomes or 23 pairs of chromosomes or a total of 46 chromosomes.

Which is most likely an acquired trait in horses? A. color of fur B. length of ears C. ability to run D. a slight limp
weeeeeb [17]
I believe the answer is D. Limps are usually only caused by the horse getting hurt or something went wrong when it's mother was giving birth. The ears,fur, and ability to run are things that horses are born with. They are not born with limps.
