Biology

Answer: A  the chromosomes from another parent cell were introduced

Explanation: A child is created when the male sex cell joins the female cell. If the male and female sex cells had the standard number of chromosomes, as is found in body cells then the zygote (baby) would have double that number of chromosomes. The number of chromosomes would keep doubling every generation. To avoid this doubling the parent's body cells split by miosis which halves the number of chromosomes and so when the sex cells join the total number of chromosomes is the same as that found in the parent's body cells.

Which of the following is a behavioral adaptation of the Venus fly trap?
Neko [114]


The correct answer is A - leaves that close when touched.

The Venus flytrap is a type of flowering plant that is best known for its unique adaptation to trap live insects using a trap.

The trap is made up of two hinged lobes at the end of each leaf, with hair like projections called trichomes that cause the lobes to snap shut when prey comes into contact with them.

This type of movement is called thigmonasty which is a non directional plant response to being touched.
