Microevolution refers to changes that occur within a single species or group or organisms. Microevolution, as opposed to macroevolution, occurs in a short period of time. In microevolution, the ancestor and the descendant obviously belong to the same type. For example, certain pests have evolved in such a way that they become immune to pesticides; the same thing has happened to certain weeds and herbicides. Hope this helps.
Pepsin is one of three principal protein-degrading enzymes in the
digestive system, the other two being chymotrypsin and trypsin. During
the process of digestion, these enzymes collaborate to break down
dietary proteins to their components, i.e., peptides and amino acids.
Answer:
Net photosynthesis- 3mm/20min- 1.5mm/10min
Cellular respiration- 1mm/15min- 0.66mm/10min
Gross photosynthesis = Net photosynthesis + Cellular respiration = 1.5+0.66 = 2.16 (mm/10min)
Rate of photosynthesis = (gross photosynthesis)6 = 2.16 *6 = 12.96 mm/hr
As we are measuring rate of photosynthesis in hr ,we should multiply gross photosynthesis with 6 (as we measured gross photosynthesis for 10 min).
Explanation:
Common examples of this would be if you place your hand in extremely warm or cold water, and an immediate response of pulling out of the water or any fluid, is an example of this extreme response, other responses are what is done in everyday, like being thirsty or hungry etc.
These behaviours are shared by all organisms even the most simple ones.
Answer:
The correct answer is D. maintain membrane fluidity through its disruption of fatty acid packing.
Explanation:
<u>Cholesterol</u> is a steroid lipid and is a constituent of biological membranes. It regulates the <em>fluidity</em> of the membrane (so, option C is not correct). Since cell membranes are composed of another type of lipids, the phospholipids, which form a bilayer, cholesterol distributes between the phospholipid tails and avoids these molecules pack each other forming rigid clusters. Thus, the option which better explains the effect is <em>D. maintain membrane fluidity through its disruption of fatty acid packing.</em>
