Answer: D) Stereotyping
Choice A is false because this involves denying a person to do something based on factors such as religion, race, ethnicity, etc.
Choice B is false because this term involves a crime or suspected crime being committed, or about to be committed. And it also makes the assumption based on a person's race.
Choice C is false since segregation is the separation of people usually by race or ethnicity. Though you could have class based segregation (eg: rich vs poor) and other forms.
Choice D is true because stereotyping is where you lump a bunch of people together based on cultural or societal assumptions. Usually it's in the form of "all ___ people do such and such" where you fill in the blank with a specific race or culture.
Answer no 8:
The correct option is D) Antelopes with muscular legs are bale to outrun their predators better than antelopes with poor muscle tone. Thus they lived to reproduce.
Explanation:
Genetic variations in a population are the main reason that natural selection tends to occur. Natural selection favours those organisms which have better characteristics.The organisms with better traits are able to reproduce and pass on their characteristics to their offsprings.
Answer No 10:
The correct option is A) Phenotype directly influences the interaction of an organism with its environment.
Explanation:
The interactions between the phenotypic traits and the environment analyze whether a particular organism will be able to survive and pass on its characteristics to its offspring. Hence, the phenotype directly influences the interaction of an organism with its environment.
Answer No 9
The correct option is A) resistance to a virus
Explanation:
Mutations can be described as any changes which occur in the DNA of an organism. Mutations might be beneficial or harmful depending on the location where the mutation arises. Viruses are usually harmful for eukaryotes. Hence, the correct option is A.
Answer No 11:
The correct option is C) Giraffes with longer necks survived because they were better suited to the environment.
Explanation:
Natural selection tends to favour those organsims which are better suited to live in an environment. Those organisms with better characteristics are able to survive and pass on their traits to their offsprings.
The giraffes with longer necks were better adapted to live in the environment and hence were favoured by natural selection.
Answer No 12:
The correct option is D) selective breeding
Explanation:
Selective breeding can be described as a technique in which organisms with better characteristics are crossed, so that offsprings with better characteristics can be produced. Selective breeding is done by humans where as natural selection is done by the nature.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
The population size increases
Answer:
Nitrogenous;Acid-Base and Fluid
Explanation:
The kidney is referred to as an excretory organ because it excretes nitrogenous wastes. It is also a major homeostatic organ because it maintains the electrolyte Acid-Base, and fluid balance of the blood.
Answer:
Falso
Explanation:
La ecología es <u>la ciencia que estudia la interacción entre los seres vivos y el ecosistema.</u> Esto incluye la interacción entre todos los factores tanto bióticos, o vivos, como abióticos, no vivos.
Por ejemplo, la ecología podría estudiar la manera en que un venado interactúa con su entorno: cual es su principal fuente de alimento, el rol que juega en el ecosistema, las adaptaciones que ha desarrollado para vivir en dicho entorno, etc.
Debido a que la materia inerte es considerada un factor abiótico o no vivo, esto no correspondería al área de la ecología. Por ende, este enunciado <u>es falso</u>.
