Answer:
Answered below.
Explanation:
A karyotype is defined as the size, shape, and number of chromosomes present in an organism.
An analysis is usually done on a karyotype to see if individuals have abnormal numbers or sizes of chromosomes. Such abnormalities may arise from;
Deletion: which implies that a chromosomal part is missing.
Duplication: where parts of a chromosome are repeated.
Translocation: which occurs when a chromosomal part breaks off and gets attached to another chromosome.
Nondisjunction: in which chromosomes do not separate from the parent cells.
Common chromosomal disorders arising from these abnormalities include;
Down's syndrome
Edwards syndrome
Turner's syndrome
Klinefelter syndrome
Prada-willi syndrome
Cri-du-chat syndrome
Patau's syndrome
Jobs. Like a snow blowing company. They would not have that in Puerto Rico. But Canada might. Because they have a different enviornment.
A population decrease in primary producers would affect the ecosystem negatively because everyone who ate the primary consumers would have a lack of food.
The answer is <span>They both suggest that snakes evolved from an ancestor with legs.
The second choice is not correct since we have no information about pythons and other snakes. We only have the relationship between geckos, snakes and legless eels. So, it is said that </span><span>snakes in general have more DNA sequences in common with four-legged geckos than they do with legless eels. This means that snakes are closer to geckos than the legless eels. We cannot conclude from this information which evolved from which, but we can say that </span><span>snakes evolved from an ancestor with legs.
In different case, if the snakes had more DNA sequence in common with legless eels, we would conclude that the snakes evolved from an ancestor without legs.</span>
Answer:
These structures that protect the sponges from most predators, but not turtles, are spicules.
Explanation:
Sponges <em>skeleton</em> is composed of <em>calcium carbonate and siliceous</em> micro-structures called <u>spicules</u>. Their morphology is so varied that it is used in taxonomy for identification and classification.
There are different kinds of spicules:
- <em>Monoaxonic spicule</em>: needle-shaped, straights or curves
- <em>Tetraxonic spicules:</em> they have four prolongations
- <em>Triaxonic or Hexaxonic spicules</em>
- <em>Poliaxonic spicules </em>
Two terms can be applied to any of these spicules kinds:
- <em>Megaspicules</em>: They are elongated and compose the main architecture of the sponge skeleton
- <em>Microspicules</em>: Variable in shape and size, with ancillary functions
Sponges have few predators thank to the spicule structures and their high toxicity. Many of them are capable of perforating soft tissues and producing urticant substances.
