Muscular activity of its digestive system distorts the body wall should convince you that the organism is acoelomate.
<h3><u>
Explanation:</u></h3>
An animal that does not have body cavity refers to an acoelomate. It is in contrast with the eucoelomates which are the animals that have body cavity. The acoelomate will not have a cavity which is filled with fluid between the digestive tract and the body. Hence there will be a distortion of body wall by the muscular activity of the digestive system.
Some of the examples of acoelomate are Cnidaria,Porifera , Platyhelminthes, Placozoa ,Gnathostomulida.Nemertina and Mesozoa. The presence of pseudocoelom in which the body cavity will not be lined by the mesodermal cells are the Pseudocoelomate.
Answer:
Parasitism.
Explanation:
Parasitism is an association in which one organism, lives on another, the host, deriving benefit from it and causing harm to it.
The tapeworm here is a parasite and it lives inside the cat's(host) body where the tapeworm is specialized for its mode of life. It survive and reproduces very well without needing another specie because it is a hermaphrodite. It causes loss or poor development of unwanted organs such as the digestive, sense organs and muscles. Its long flattened body also provides a large surface area for absorption of nutrients too.
Answer:
E (Red shows incomplete dominance over white)
Explanation:
This portrays a monohybrid cross involving a single gene coding for flower colour in snapdragon plants. According to the question, a purebreeding red flowered (homozygous) plant is crossed with a purebreeding white flowered (homozygous) plant to produce an all pink flowered offspring. This phenomenon is called INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE.
Mendel, in his experiments, discovered that an allele can mask the expression of another in a heterozygous state. He called the allele that masks DOMINANT allele while the allele that is masked RECESSIVE allele. However, exceptions like INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE, has occurred in the sense that an allele does not completely mask the expression of its allelic pair, instead an intermediate phenotype, which is a combination/blending of both parental phenotypes is produced.
In this case, the red flowered snapdragon (RR) does not completely cover up the expression of white flower (rr), hence a hybrid/heterozygous offspring is produced that combines the phenotypic characteristics of both parents to form an intermediate flower colour (pink). Hence, it can be said that Red flower is incompletely dominant over white flower or no allele/trait is dominant or recessive to another.
