Different structure in an organism are specialized to perform different tasks in the organism depending on their makeup. A few examples are:
Heart, veins, arteries are structures forming the cardiovascular system and function is to facilitate transport nutrients and oxygen carried by blood all over the body.
Bones, joints, ligaments and cartilage are structures of the skeletal system and their function is support and protection of the body.
Mouth, esophagus. stomach, large and small intestines are structures of the digestive system and their function is to break down food and absorb nutrients.
Answer:
If a female child has hemophilia it is possible that the mother is a carrier of the hemophilia gene and the father has hemophilia.
Explanation:
- A daughter gets X chromosome from both her parents.
- It is generally seen in males.
- Hemophilia is generally recessive in females.They act as carriers of hemophilia. This occurs because they have a X chromosome that dominates the hemophilia affected gene that they inherit from any parent.
- But, if both the parents have faulty genes ,i.e the mother is the carrier of the gene and the father is hemophiliac, then the chances are the daughter has hemophilia too.
Answer: The observation "A" leads us to conclude that the finches populations are from two different species
Explanation:
According to the biological concept of species, <em>a set of individuals are from the same species if they are able to reproduce and leave fertile offspring</em>. This is key so one species can be successful and perpetuate through time. If they cannot leave descendants, then the species will be extinct. However, it’s possible that two individuals from different species mate and have descendants, but they cannot leave fertile offspring. When they are from different species, the offspring will be sterile and it is called a hybrid.
In the case of the South American finch, the island's finch population and mainland's finch population belong to different species because their offspring is sterile. To have different features, as different feather's color, or to have other dietary preference is not enough to say that they are different species. This is because within the same species, individuals can have variations. For example, we can different eye color and belong to the same species.
A divergent boundary plates moves away from each other.
