Finches in the Galapagos Island are good example of adaptation because these finches have undergone several variations in their beak shape and form according to their ecological niche.Nov 29, 2017
Answer:
Explanation:
Xylem transports and stores water and water-soluble nutrients in vascular plants.
Phloem is responsible for transporting sugars, proteins, and other organic molecules in plants.
Vascular plants are able to grow higher than other plants due to the rigidity of xylem cells, which support the plant.
Answer:
1. Stratus
2. Cirrus
3. Cumulus
4. Both Cumulus and Cirrus
Explanation:
Insect hormones and their receptors are a focus in pest control and research. Hence, Option B is correct.
Some of the insect hormones such as ecdysone (molting hormone), JH (juvenile hormone) and their analogs can be used for biological control of pests.
Option A: Hormone receptors are proteins that bind hormones and form hormone receptor complex to maintain cellular activities.
So Option A is incorrect.
Option B: Some of the peptide hormones used in pest control and research. So Option B is correct.
Option C: Peptide hormones interact with only cell surface whereas aminoacid derivatives and thyroid hormones directly interact with nucleus. so Option C is incorrect.
option D is incorrect.

Answer:
Tetraploid wheat evolved by allopolyploidization and subsequent diploid-like behavior due to cytological diploidization
Explanation:
Durum wheat (<em>Triticum durum</em>) or pasta wheat, is a tetraploid wheat species that has 28 chromosomes, i.e., seven pairs in each genome (2n = 4x = 28). Durum wheat was domesticated from wild emmer wheat, which originated by hybridization of two diploid wheat species with 14 chromosomes: <em>Triticum monococcum</em> (genome AA) and one wild progenitor (genome BB). <em>Triticum durum </em>is a typical example of evolution by hybridization and polyploidization, where the resultant tetraploid species has two complete sets of chromosomes. Allopolyploidization is one of the most common types of plant speciation. During meiosis, 28 chromosomes form 14 homologous chromosome pairs, because homologous chromosomes have developed 'restriction of pairing' (i.e., cytological diploidization). The restriction of pairing to fully homologous chromosomes ensures a correct meiotic behavior, which otherwise would be altered due to the high level of homology that still exists among chromosomes from different wheat progenitors.
