Answer: Variations are the differences in individuals or their traits present within the organisms of a species which are caused by environmental and inherited factors. The inherited variation is caused due to genetic factors or information carried from the parents. Variation caused due to environmental factors includes climate, lifestyle, diet, culture etc.

Darwin explained the differences in traits on the basis of natural selection. Darwin also believed that variations in traits resulted due to inheritance and environmental factors. Darwin’s theory of evolution through natural selection suggests that individuals vary in their ability for survival as well as for their reproduction. The individuals with most favorable traits survive longer and have more number of offspring.

He proposed that over a large period of time natural selection could lead to change in order to better adapt a species to their changing environment

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

The correct answer is lysosomes

Explanation:

Tay-Sachs disease is a genetic metabolic disorder in which a lipid called GM2 ganglioside builds in the brain which results in spasticity and death in childhood.

This disease is also known as lysosomal storage disease. Lysosomes are the major organelle that contains enzymes to breakdown molecules. In Tay-Sachs disease deficiency of hexosaminidase A occurs in lysosomes and this enzyme is needed to breakdown fats.  

So due to this deficiency, it results in the accumulation of fats in the brain and spinal cord causing Tay-Sachs disease.

Match each cell type to its correct description.
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

a. phagocytic blood cells  - 9. microphages

b. stems cell that differentiate into fibroblasts  - 4. mesenchymal cells

c. create matrix of connective tissue  - 1. fibroblasts

d. secrete pigment melanin  - 5. melanocytes

e. cause inflammation  - 7. mast cells

f. second most abundant cell type and maintain matrix  - 2. fibrocytes

g. specialized cell of the immune system  - 8. lymphocytes

h. large phagocytic cells of the immune system  - 6. macrophages

i. fat cells  - 3. adipocytes

Explanation:

Almost all of these cells have one thing in common: they are part of the connective tissues in our body. Connective tissue can be <u>divided into two</u>: proper connective tissue (that can be loose or dense) and specialized connective tissue (in this category, for example, we can find blood tissue, adipose tissue, bone tissue, and cartilage tissue).

Cells in our bodies have very different but important functions and they partake in their tasks because of the specific tissue or organ where they are at. While <u>blood tissue has cells that specialize in gas transport and immune response</u>, the <u>connective tissue has cells that synthesize and maintain the matrix and also specialized immune cells as well</u>. Microphages, macrophages and lymphocytes can be found both in the blood tissue and the connective tissue as well, as they migrate from the bloodstream to the tissue where they are needed to perform immunity tasks. Also in the connective tissue, we can find other cells that participate in the immune response, like the mast cells that release histamine to produce inflammation.
