4 0

Answer:

Darwin proposed the theory of natural selection to explain the process of evolution. According to Darwin’s theory of natural selection, all organisms have the potential to reproduce limitlessly irrespective of the fact that each species maintain a constant density over time. However, the struggle for existence, i.e. the competition among individuals for available resources to survive and reproduce, put a check on species density (D) and maintains it at a constant level (B). Survival of fittest is unequal ability of individuals to survive and reproduce based on suitability of their inherited characters to prevailing environmental conditions (A). It imparts the reproductive advantage to certain organisms which account for major part of the gene pool of the species. Thus, natural selection favors the individual with survival and/or reproductive advantage over others under existing environmental condition (E). Thus, the correct answer is option C.

What are the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells? Focus on cells from microscopy lab?
pishuonlain [190]

Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, including a nucleus. Eukaryotes can be single-celled or multi-celled, such as you, me, plants, fungi, and insects. Bacteria are an example of prokaryotes. Prokaryotic cells do not contain a nucleus or any other membrane-bound organelle.

There are several key differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells are found in multicellular plants and animals, whereas prokaryotic cells are found in bacteria and archaea which are ususlly unicellular. I have summarised the key differences below:

Prokayotic cells do not have membrane-bound organelles, such as the endoplasmic reticulum or mitochondria.

Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus, instead they have circular DNA that is free in the cytoplasm.

Prokaryotic cells have smaller ribosomes than eukaryotic cells.

Prokaryotic cells have a cell wall. Their cell wall is made from a different material to a plant cell, a glycoprotein called murein.

Prokaryotic cells may also have a protective layer called a capsule, flagellum to aid in movement and one or more plasmids.

Hostility is related to coronary heart disease and may contribute to premature death.
erik [133]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Hostility can be explained in clear terms as a form of emotion portrayed in an aggressive manner, which is unfriendly and an arousal of anger from within as a result of denial or rejection.

Coronary heart disease occurs when major blood vessels that supply blood,oxygen,and nutrients  to the heat becomes damaged. It major cause are inflammation or cholesterol deposits in the arteries that supply all these nutrients, oxygen and  blood to the heart. This causes coronary arteries to narrow, limiting blood flow to the heart.  It is said that some slight modifications to care for coronary heart disease  include a better lifestyle changes,socialization etc, but when an individual susceptible to coronary heart diseases is hostile, it endanger the effect of such individual more to chronic effects.

Hostility levels is also related as  a better predictor of coronary heart disease risk than factors such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure etc. This is because more heart attacks are attributed to anger than high cholesterol.

The endosymbiosis theory states the origin of eukaryotic cells began when
Art [367]

It is thought that life arose on earth around four billion years ago. The endosymbiotic theory states that some of the organelles in today's eukaryotic cells were once prokaryotic microbes.

2. (2 pts) According to the cladogram, which organisms develop in an “amniotic egg”?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The answer is primates, rodents/rabbits, crocodiles and birds.

Explanation:

Cladogram

A cladogram is a diagrammatic epresentation of the evolutionary relationships between organisms that emerged from the same ancestor. Basically, it shows how closely one organism is related to another.

A cladogram differs with a phylogenetic tree in the sense that a cladogram only shows evolutionary relationships between one ancestor and all its descendants. On the other hand, a phylogenetic tree explains relationships between many clades (group of related species)

A cladogram also identifies various evolutionary points or milestones of the development of certain characteristics.

According to this cladogram, the amniotic egg evolved before the emergence of the common ancestor of primates, rodents, crocodiles and birds.
