Answer: Choanoflagellates

Explanation:

Protists are organisms that have both plant and animal like characteristics. Some protists develop more plant like characteristics and others more animal like characteristics. Choanoflagellates are the protists which looks like animals called sponges. These protists are single celled organisms. Their function is similar to collar cells of the sponges that is they produce current in water that draws water and food particles via the body of sponges and they filter the food particles through their microvilli.

Neurons in the hypothalamus regulate the activity of secretory cells in the anterior pituitary gland by:________
Jet001 [13]

Neurons in the hypothalamus regulate the activity of secretory cells in the anterior pituitary gland by releasing hormones. Pituitary gland basically store the hormones which is produce by the hypothalamus.

Hypothalamus connect the nervous and endocrine systems by way of the pituitary gland. Both are connected directly to the pituitary gland by a thin stalk which is called infundibulum.

Its main function is to secrete releasing hormones and inhibiting hormones that stimulate  the production of hormones in the anterior pituitary. FSH and LH both are produce and secret gonadotropins which regulated by the hypothalami releasing hormone, GnRH.  These are the releasing hormones which control the release of another hormone.

Ede4ka [16]

Complete question:

Thinking creatively about evolutionary mechanisms, identify at least

two schemes that could generate allelic polymorphism in a population except natural selection that favors heterozygotes.

<u>Select the two correct answers.</u>

-inbreeding among individuals in the population

-purifying selection against mutational variants of alleles in the population

-continuous migration of individuals with new alleles into the population

-mutations that do not severely affect viability and reproductivity

-genetic drift of alleles common in the population

-events leading to genetic bottleneck effect

Answer:

The two events that might favor heterozygotes among the options are  

  • The Continuous migration of individuals with new alleles into the population
  • Mutations that do not severely affect viability and reproductivity.  These might favor heterozygous frequencies.

Explanation:

Due to technical problems, you will find the complete explanation in the attached files.
