This seems really pity I know, but my biology course reading doesn't help answer these questions whatsoever- at least not in a w

ay that would be easy to understand so, brainly please help.
1) Why did 40% of the human population evolve to tolerate lactose?(1 point)

A Lactose tolerance allows people to enjoy a wide variety of food, including milk, butter, ice cream, and cheese.

B People who have an intolerance experience physical pain, so a tolerance evolved to avoid that.

C Within cultures that rely on milk-producing animals, individuals who tolerated lactose had a survival advantage.

D Babies rely on milk to survive, so they need to be able to tolerate lactose.

2) What is the difference between genetic drift and natural selection?(1 point)

A Genetic drift is the change in a population’s genes over time; natural selection is the evolution of a population over time.

B Genetic drift is the frequency of genes in a population; natural selection is the frequency of adaptations in a population.

C Genetic drift is the random increase or decrease of certain genes in a population; natural selection is not random.

D Genetic drift is the selection of random traits in a population; natural selection is the selection of specific traits.

3 What is an interferon?(1 point)

A An interferon is used by a virus to stop the body from detecting it.

B An interferon disrupts DNA replication.

C An interferon reduces the efficacy of antibiotics on bacteria.

D An interferon activates the body’s immune system response to a virus.

4 Why is there such a wide variety of immune system responses between hosts when they are infected with the same virus?(1 point)

A Slight variations due to mutations in the virus trigger different responses in people.

B People that have already been infected are asymptomatic.

C Some viruses are resistant to antibiotics, so they cause a stronger immune system response.

D Each person’s immune system employs different tactics to get rid of the virus.

5 Is the following statement true? “Antigenic drift and other mutations to the DNA of viruses are always beneficial for the virus.”(1 point)

A Yes, because mutated viruses are able to infect more hosts.

B Yes, because mutated viruses have less mRNA so they can copy and replicate faster.

C No, because mutated viruses are may be less likely to replicate.

D No, because different mutations cause a variety of immune responses.

Describe how Eukaryota plant cells store remove waste materials?
zloy xaker [14]

 They convert a lot of their waste into useful substances through photosynthesis. Gaseous wastes are excreted during respiration through the plant's stomata and root cell walls. At night, when photosynthesis cannot occur, excess water is released through the tips of the leaves.

Other waste products are released as leaves and flowers fall off of a plant. In addition to oxygen, water and carbon dioxide, other plant waste products include resins, saps, latex and tannins. Some of these products are released into the soil surrounding the plant.

Explain the results from trial 1 in which all of the conditions proposed by oparin and haldane were met in the miller-urey appar
kolezko [41]
<h2>Modern Abiogenesis Hypothesis</h2>

Explanation:

  • American physicists Harold Urey and Stanley Miller consolidated warm water with water fume, methane, smelling salts, and atomic hydrogen. These beat with electrical releases. These parts were intended to recreate the crude sea, prebiotic air, warmth, and lighting
  • After seven days they found that basic natural atoms, for example, amino acids had framed
  • Hence the Miller-Urey try effectively delivered atoms from inorganic parts thought to have been available on the prebiotic earth
  • Hence, the right answer is "Modern abiogenesis hypothesis is based on Oparin- Haldane theory and Miller- Urey experiment"
