Answer:
Advantageous
Explanation:
Natural selection acts on traits that are advantageous, thus increasing chances of survival and passing on the trait.
The RYR1 gene is responsible for producing the protein ryanodine receptor 1. This protein transport calcium ions to the cells for muscle contraction. When this receptor remains open for a long time, you would expect an excess of calcium ions which would result to muscle rigidity. The excess calcium ions would also increase body temperature and produce excess acid.
Answer:
A. Plants will only flower during long day periods when the day length exceeds their necessary photoperiod
Explanation:
Photoperiodism is a phenomenon that refers to the response of an organism to the length of day. This phenomenon causes a physiological change in the organisms involved (plants or animals). However, the best studied example of change caused by photoperiodism is that of FLOWERING IN PLANTS.
Different plants flower at different times in response to the day length. Certain plants called LONG DAY PLANTS e.g. spinach and potato etc only flower when the length of day exceeds their photoperiod (threshold), which is usually 12 hours. These plants require very short periods of darkness to flower.
Hence, according to the question, FLOWERING response in plants is the best explanation to describe photoperiodism.
