Answer: microorganisms
Explanation: No animal has the ability to digest cellulose directly.
Most animals such as horses and termites cannot directly digest cellulose. The animals have a symbiotic relationship with bacteria in the intestinal tract. The symbiotic bacteria acts on the cellulose and secrets the necessary enzymes (cellulase) to digest cellulose in the intestinal tract. An example of such microorganism in a symbiotic relationship with animals that facilitates the digestion of cellulose is Trichonympha
Answer:
The correct answer is - Grant's research on finches on the Galapagos islands.
Explanation:
Grant's research was made on medium-sized finches on the Galapagos islands showed evolutionary processes in real-time. He showed that due to the drought there is a decrease in the number of small and soft seeds that were finches major food source.
It is known that there are different beak sizes in this finch species, the finches with larger beaks could feed on tough and large seeds and survive in such case of the drought-induced decrease in food availability. Due to this natural selection and adaption the number of larger beaks in finches is increased over the real time.
Answer:
Problem traits to predominate in a species
Explanation:
Because it lacks the control of fitness needing to increase fitness, artificial selection can cause problem traits to predominate in a species
Answer:
the penguins have a special care process since the hatching of the egg, the newborns receive care from their parents and have warmth from them placing themselves between their paws, the parents take turns caring for them and when the father is not with the chick, he goes in search of food, which he gives regurgitated, then the cris can go to a kindergarten where others of the same age are cared for by a herd of penguins, however his parents go to the sea and feed and continue to bring food to their son, this process it is kept until they change plumage and are ready to get their food on their own.
Answer:
c. The islands are only 100 km from Ecuador, so they receive a continual input of new genes from the mainland
Explanation:
The Galapagos islands are not connected with the mainland. They are isolated islands and are located away from the mainland. Due to their geographical isolation, Galapagos islands do not experience the migration of populations from the mainland. So, there is no gene flow to Galapagos islands from the mainland.
Further, diversification of islands needs them to be isolated from the mainland so that the inhabiting populations can diversify to accommodate in available niches.
