Because of the isolation of Galapagos, the life forms that had somehow reached the island, such as the lizard and other such creatures, had evolved differently over time compared to their cousins on the mainland. Things like a bird that was usually able to fly no longer had long wings spans or the ability to fly on the island, the large lizards on the island were used to eating sea-vegetation and often swam right into the ocean using their long tails to swim. And so forth.

Darwin found that all the plant life and animals on the island developed from isolation.  Each of these species were also different form the other species on the islands surrounding the Galapagos islands.  Darwin could only explain these characteristics through a gradual transformation of the various species.

What are the benefits of planting only native species when implementing rain gardens, no-mow native meadows, and/or tree plantin
Zolol [24]

All options above are potential benefits of planting only native species when implementing rain gardens, no-mow native meadows, and/or tree plantings.

<h3>What are native species?</h3>

Native species are species that evolved in a particular environment and therefore they are well adapted to it.

Native plants are well know to be more adapted to survival and do not need extra watering to survive.

In conclusion, all options above are potential benefits of planting only native species when implementing rain gardens, no-mow native meadows, and/or tree plantings.

Mnenie [13.5K]

Penicillins disrupts bacterial cell wall synthesis.

<h3>How does penicillin affect bacterial cell walls?</h3>
  • Penicillin kills bacteria by inhibiting the proteins which cross-link peptidoglycans in the cell wall .
  • When a bacterium divides in the presence of penicillin, it cannot fill in the “holes” left in its cell wall.
  • β-Lactam antibiotics, including penicillins, cephalosporins, monobactams, and carbapenems, are distinguished by a lactam ring in their molecular structure and act by inhibiting the synthesis of the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls.
  • Penicillins work by bursting the cell wall of bacteria. Drugs in the penicillin class work by indirectly bursting bacterial cell walls.
  • They do this by acting directly on peptidoglycans, which play an essential structural role in bacterial cells.

Pea flowers may be purple (P) or white (p). Pea seeds may be round (R) or wrinkled (r). What proportion of the offspring from a
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is c. 3/16.

Explanation:

In the given question two traits being studied, the traits are flower color and seed shape.

This is a typical Mendel’s dihybrid cross. According to the question purple colour (P) and round seed (R) are dominant traits.

When heterozygous purple-flowered (Pp), round-seeded (Rr) individuals are crossed, four different types of plants are produced phenotypically in the ratio 9:3:3:1.Out of 16 offspring, 9 are purple flowered, round seeded pea plants, 3 pea plants are white-flower with round seed, 3 are purple- flower with wrinkled seed and 1 pea plant is white-flowered with wrinkled seed pea plant is produced.
