Answer:
The correct answer is - tend to lose water by osmosis since their internal salt concentration is lower than that of seawater.
Explanation:
In freshwater fishes, the body of fishes has a higher salt concentration inside their body than the surrounding water, water enters through the osmosis process. Without any active regulation of this process, fishes would swell and get bigger and bigger. They have specialized cells called chloride cells in gills to take ions from water as they do not have kidneys.
In contrast, the marine fishes have a lower salt concentration in their body than surrounding water of sea or ocean and they lose water continuously and to compensate for this they need to drink water regularly.
Answer:
The environment plays a role in a mutant allele in a population because some mutations are more beneficial to the organism than other mutations.
Explanation:
Organisms with a beneficial allele mutation will be able to pass on their genes as they reproduce. The mutation makes them <em>fit</em> for survival in their environment. Other organisms <em>without </em>the beneficial allele won't be able to pass on their genes since it will be more difficult for them to survive in their environment. Natural selection will deem that the organisms with the mutation will survive better and be able to produce offspring with the same mutation.
There's been a lot of bad news for polar bears recently. In 2007, for example, scientists reported that if global warming continues unabated, the population could drop two-thirds by 2050.
Answer:
2n, n, diploid
Explanation:
<em>When the somatic cells of human are in interphase, the ploidy level is denoted as </em><em>2n (diploid)</em><em>. The ploidy level of the human's gametes is denoted as </em><em>n (haploid)</em><em>. The 2n number of a human is </em><em>diploid</em><em>.</em>
Somatic cells are also known as vegetative cells and all somatic cells of humans have diploid number of chromosomes. At interphase, the number of chromosome remains diploid (2n) but the amount to DNA is doubled at the synthesis phase of the interphase.
Human gametes are formed through meiosis - the division of sex cells in the human body. Meiosis results in the halving of number of chromosomes of cells. Hence, all human gametes contain half the number (n = 23) of chromosome of vegetative cells.
Humans are diploid organisms with diploid (2n = 46) number of chromosomes in their vegetative cells.
