Explanation:
The valence electrons determine the group the elements belong in the periodic table. For example, the element sodium, Na, has a valence electron of one and so it belongs to Group 1 in the periodic table. Another example is Aluminium, Al, which has a valence electron of three and therefore it belongs to Group 3 in the periodic table.
Answer: strong roots
Explanation:
Plants situated in fast-flowing area of a stream (aquatic environment) require certain body features to help them adapt to the fast blowing tides or waves of water, these include:
- a long slender stem
- strong roots for attachment and to withstand being uprooted by fast blowing tides
- waxy leaves and stem with intracellular air spaces to maintain buoyancy and float above the water
The best summary of the process of natural selection will be provided bythe option D that is genes are always passed from parent to offspring . Hence , out four inheritance is one of the option in the given question that is gene are passed from parent to offspring .
Answer:
The polar bear is an animal which is prevalent in the arctic region of the world which is characterized by very cold icy climate.
They adapt to these climatic conditions by maintaining a body temperature of 37°C through its thick fur and tough skin. It also has an insulating fat layer (adipose tissues) which is very thick.
This insulation helps in keeping the animal very warm in extreme temperatures.
"Identical twins are more similar on the trait than fraternal twins" would lead to the conclusion that genetic factors are important in the development of this trait.
<u>Option: C</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Research performed on identical or fraternal twins are twin investigations. We seek to expose the significance for characteristics, phenotypes and diseases of environmental and genetic factors. Twin work is considered a key instrument in the domains of behavioral genetics and material, from biology to psychology.
Fraternal or dizygous twins each share around 50 % of their DNA, just like any other parent. Since the twins are born into the same family they share other factors of their surroundings. The existence of a given genetic or phenotypic trait in just one component of a pair of twins called discordance offers a valuable insight into influence on such a trait on climate.
