Answer:
200 meters
Explanation:
A kilometer is 1,000 meter. 0.2 x 1,000 is 200 meters.
You can also think of it this way, 0.2 is 1/5. We need to find 1/5 of a kilometer. We know the conversion is 1,000 meters/kilometer. 1,000/5 is 200. Therefore you must walk 200 meters to hatch the egg.
Answer:
1) Aa refers to the heterozygous of the genes. In this gene, both allele are different from one another.
2) AA is a gene which is homozygous in nature. Homozygous means that both allele are the same. Capital letters i. e. AA is used for the trait that is dominant.
3) aa is a gene which is homozygous in nature. Lower case letters i. e. aa is refer for the trait that is recessive.
The correct options are as follows:
1. C
Homeostasis is the process by which living organisms maintains constant internal environment. Maintaining homeostasis is very important because the survival of the living organism depend on it. In order to maintain homeostasis, the amount of wastes, nutrients and water that is in an organism must be controlled and maintained at optimum level.
2. A.
An organism that can not maintain an homeostasis will die. This is because, lack of homeostasis will disrupt the biochemical reactions which sustains the life activities of the organism and once the biochemical reactions that produce life energy can no longer take place the organism will die.
3. A.
For both unicellular and multi cellular organisms, when they are exposed to water containing no salt, much of the water will move into their cells. This happened because, the level of salt in the interior of the living cells is higher and so the water will move from the medium which has no salt to the inside to the cell where there is salt. This process is known as osmosis. In osmosis water move through a semi permeable membrane from the region of low salt concentration level to the region of higher salt level concentration.
4. D.
Cells in living organisms are able to maintain homeostasis by specializing in specific functions and by working together in cooperatively. Each cell has its own functions which it performs; in the process of its duty, it communicates with other cells which also help it in order to achieve common goals, which is maintenance of homeostasis within the cell.
Answer: Vestigial structures
Explanation: Vestigial structures are an anatomical feature or behavior that no longer seem to have any purpose in the present form of an organism in the given species. Usually, they are often parts of the body that used to preform important functions in earlier forms of the organism.
Answer:
B. Sea stars are the prey of seagulls
Explanation:
Seagulls eat sea stars, meaning that sea stars are their prey (the organism that is eaten).
Predator: an organism that eats (preys on) another organism
Prey: an organism that is eaten by another organism (creatures can be both predator and prey. For example, a rabbit is a predator to grass, while they are prey to foxes)
Host: An organism that is fed on by a parasite. Think of a dog with a tick. The dog is the host, the tick is the parasite.
Incorrect answers (and why):
A. Sea stars do not eat seagulls
C. If a sea star was a predator to a seagull, that would mean that they eat seagulls. They do not.
D. A host is an organism that a parasite preys on. Not only are sea stars not parasites, but they definitely do not prey on seagulls.
I hope this helps! :)
