Answer:
The correct answer is option (B) "In pursuing a swerving insect, a beetle alters its course while running and its pauses become more frequent as the chase progresses".
Explanation:
One hypothesis suggest that the tiger beetles stop for a moment when they attack because it can't keep its pace and they have to rest, while the other hypothesis suggest that the tiger beetles could not process the rapidly changing visual information when running. The experiments results would support only the second hypothesis if they show that in pursuing a swerving insect, a beetle alters its course while running and its pauses become more frequent as the chase progresses. If a beetle altering its course have to stop more often than a beetle running straight, it would make sense that it has to stop because is unable to process the changing visual information rapidly enough.
Answer:
C, the specimen will appear fuzzy and have poor resolution
Explanation:
Immersion oil is used in a microscope to improve image quality. The oil has a high refractive index that allows light concentrate on the specimen (prevent light from away from the specimen).
Answer:
a. only T gametes
b. only t gametes
c. TT
d. tt
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for stem length in pea plant. The allele for tall stem length (T) is dominant to dwarf stem length (t).
- A purebred is an organism that will only transfer one type of phenotype to its offspring or produce only one type of GAMETE. Hence, to do this, a purebred must have a homzygous genotype. According to this question;
a. A purebred tall plant (TT) will produce only 'T' gametes.
b. A purebred dwarf plant (tt) will produce only 't' gametes.
c. The genotype of a purebred tall plant will be 'TT'
d. The genotype of a purebred dwarf plant will be 'tt'
