A friend claims her pet ferret is descended from the wild polecat. You want to learn more about this ferret ancestor. An online

search shows several different kinds of polecats. How could you figure out which one is the ferret ancestor?

In order to identify the most recent common ancestor of an animal, the physical and genetic makeup of the organisms must be compared. The two organisms must have striking similarities in order to be considered as closely related.

Despite the difference in their size, the domestic ferret has a great resemblance with the features of an Eastern European polecat. In addition, they have the ability to cross-breed with polecats. Therefore, the most recent ancestor of the ferret is the Eastern European polecat.


This took a long time to type cuz I am a slow typer. But I hope I got the answer correct! Hope you have a great day!:)

¿para que sirven los plasmodesmos?
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Los plasmodesmos forman una ruta importante para la comunicación entre las células vegetales. Regulan la comunicación de célula a célula, permitiendo así la diferenciación de órganos y tejidos vegetales.

Los plasmodesmos facilitan el movimiento de moléculas entre las células, desde pequeños productos fotosintéticos hasta grandes proteínas y ARNm. En el tejido vascular, los plasmodesmos son cruciales para el movimiento de nutrientes. También son cruciales durante el desarrollo porque, a diferencia de las células animales, las células vegetales no se mueven. Por tanto, la expresión correcta de genes tanto temporal como espacialmente es importante. Mientras que las células vegetales, como las células animales, son capaces de interactuar receptor-ligando para enviar señales a otras células, los plasmodesmos ofrecen contacto directo. Además, el tamaño de la manga difiere en diferentes tipos de células y tejidos vegetales. Por tanto, los plasmodesmos son un componente celular activo en el transporte intercelular, durante el desarrollo y en el tejido maduro.

Like rods, cone cells are depolarized when their opsin molecules are inactive. In the case of a cone, why might it be misleading
Olenka [21]

The most responsive of the three different types of cones to various light wavelengths. When light is present, a cone may become entirely depolarized if the sunlight is of a wavelength that is not optimal.

<h3>What do the eye's rods and cones do?</h3>

Rods are in charge of seeing in dimly lit environments (scotopic vision). They have poor spatial acuity and do not integrate color vision. Cones are responsible for color vision, high spatial acuity, and activity under higher light levels (photopic vision).

<h3>In the eye, how many rods are there?</h3>

The total number of rods inside the human retina (91 million) is significantly higher than the total number of cones, despite the fact human perception of average daytime ambient light is dominated by cone-mediated vision (roughly 4.5 million). As a result, over the majority of the retina, rod density is substantially higher than cone density.
