Answer:
Explanation:
This question seeks to test the knowledge of the modern synthetic theory of evolution. This theory describes <u>evolution as the changes occurring in the allele frequency within a population of the same specie</u>. Hence, the following questions derived from the question can be answered as thus
1) Does the population evolve instantly from that stochastic event?
YES. This is because the frequency of the allele changed.
2) Can it be said that Natural Selection is at work in this case?
YES. The synthetic theory of evolution derives great "evidence" from natural selection because the allele frequency is believed to have changed because of the environmental impact (the rock) and that the next generation will adapt better to such an environment.
3) How does the Synthetic Theory of Evolution help answer this question?
Previously, evolution was believed to occur over several generation which ultimately lead to some phenotypic changes as a result of adaptive changes in the genes. This old description of evolution would have made one arrive at a wrong answer if one does not consider the modern synthetic theory of evolution which talks about instant evolution from allele frequency (as was described in the question).
Answer:
They are intermediate hosts.
Explanation:
Disease-transmitting insects are called vectors.
The life cycle of disease-causing pathogens is closely linked to the biology of the insect that carries it.
The symptoms of gongylonemiasis include hemorrhagic inflammation at the site the pathogen invades, followed by granulomatous tissue development that produces nodules in the invaded organ.
Some diseases transmitted by insects occur in both humans and other mammals because our differences in anatomy and physiology are not very different.
It is unlikely that clinical symptoms will occur in humans if the insect were the definitive host, because our biology is quite different from their biology, and the pathogen would be adapted to fulfill its entire life cycle in their body.
ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate is
the energy that the cells use to make the body perform properly. Carbohydrate
is the preferred nutrient for ATP production in the mitochondria of the cell
because it can be easily broken down. When absorbed by the body, carbohydrates
automatically turn into glucose and glycogen.

Glucose, as the by-product of
carbohydrates, readily provides a supply of energy to the body as it circulates
with the blood. Too much glucose in the blood will make the blood sticky and
will have a hard time to flow in the blood vessels.
Glycogen on the other hand,
is the back-up energy source of the body when glucose is no longer available.
It is stored in the muscles and liver. It can readily turn again into glucose
when the body thinks it needs it.</span>
