Answer:

Chromosome structure consists of a long arm region and a short arm region connected at a central region known as a centromere. The ends of a chromosome are called telomeres. Duplicated or replicated chromosomes have the familiar X-shape and are composed of identical sister chromatids.

Answer:

The answer is: After step 3, layers of sediment cover the dead organism.

Explanation:

Fossilization is the process by which living things are preserved as impressions on sedimentary rock (fossils). This is a rare process that occurs under the most appropriate conditions.

Process of Fossilization:

Permineralization is one of the most common types of fossilization. It involves the absorption of minerals into the remains, giving a detailed impression of the dead organism.

  1. The dead organism sink to the bottom of the ocean.
  2. The soft parts i.e. the tissue is decomposed whereas the hard parts of the body: the nails, bones and hair remain.
  3. The bones are gradually covered by sediments. The quality of the fossils often depends upon the type and quantity of sediment. River deltas have a large amount of sediment. This speeds up the process. Clay and mud sediments provide more detail to the fossil whereas sandy sediments render the details vague.
  4. Sedimentation is followed by permineralization. As layers of sediment accumulate over each other, the layers underneath turn to rock. This occurs due to the movement of minerals down to the seabed that harden the sediments. Minerals such as calcite may even replace the bones and other hard parts of the fossil, allowing it to remain preserved for long.
  5. The fossils discovered by archaeologists are present relatively closer to the surface of the Earth. This occurs due to the uplifting of rock layers due to the movement of the continental plates.

Answer:

The correct answer is - A. codominance.

Explanation:

Codominance is an inheritance pattern that develops if there are two alleles of a particular gene in an organism and both are expressed together. It is not common as normally dominant allele masks the effect of recessive allele but here both traits occur.

Codominance is different from incomplete dominance as incomplete dominance expresses the dominant allele more than the recessive allele and expresses a mix of both.

El parasitismo ocurre cuando un individuo, el parásito, se beneficia de otro individuo, el anfitrión, mientras daña al anfitrión en el proceso. Los parásitos se alimentan de tejidos o fluidos del huésped y se pueden encontrar dentro (endoparásitos) o fuera (ectoparásitos) del cuerpo del huésped (Holomuzki et al. 2010).
