Biology
1 answer:
Diano4ka-milaya [45]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a. carry genetic information that influences the same traits.

Explanation:

Homologous chromosomes are the pairs of chromosomes. One chromosome of a pair is derived from the egg cell while the other comes from sperms. Two chromosomes of a pair carry the gene for the same traits. For example, two copies of chromosome 21 would carry the genes for the same traits in humans. However, these two chromosomes of a homologous pair may have the same or different alleles for a particular gene.

If chromosome 21 carries the gene for eye color in humans, the paternal chromosome may have the allele for blue eyes while the maternal chromosome may carry the allele for the black eyes. However, both of them have the "gene for the same traits (eye color)".

exposure of the opposite environments to the species and see if they are able to be active in cold waters.

If they are then species of organism in Maine and could have more ice-nucleating agents which are responsible for their high ability for activity in cold waters.

Explanation:

To test the assess if the Maine species of organisms are especially able to be active in cold waters an experiment can be designed where one needs to place the species or animals from Maine and Bahamas in reverse conditions.

Maine animals are placed in warm water environments and species from the Bahamas can be placed in cold water. Finding if they are able to adapt in reverse condition by calculating various processes and motion, if yes then  it shows that it is not a special ability to survive in cold temps. However, if it is not then the Maine poikilotherms are specially designed for their environment. In case of yes then species of organism in Maine and could have more ice-nucleating agents
