As we know, vaccines contain weakened or inactive parts of a particular organism (antigen) that triggers an immune response within the body, which is a training for your body so if a real antigen attacks it, it will be trained and kill it with ease. Same thing with the boxer, he is training with dead weight so when he has a boxing match he will be ready and win with ease.

In a certain species of plant, the color purple (P) is dominant to the color white (p). According to the Punnett Square, what is
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

If both are (PP and ww) and one is dominant the other is recessive then it is 100%  purple.

IF both are heterozygous (pw) then it is 75% purple and 25% white

if one is Hetro(pw) and the other is (ww) 50% white 50% purple

What is the role of plastic in your life? And why is it important to think about the role of plastic in your life?
Phoenix [80]
Plastics clearly constitute an important component of the range of materials used in modern society. Almost all aspects of daily life involve plastics or rubber in some form or the other. ... Owing to their light weight, plastics reduce transportation costs and, therefore, atmospheric carbon dioxide emissions./Plastic is durable and provides protection from contaminants and the elements.

Two species of closely related frogs are found in the same pond high in the Andes of South America. Both species only have teeth
IgorLugansk [536]

Complete question:

Two species of closely related frogs are found in the same pond high in the Andes of South America. Both species only have teeth on the top jaw. One has small teeth for holding small live prey prior to swallowing. The other species has very large sharp teeth for injuring and killing large prey prior to biting off pieces of flesh for consumption. The above is an example of:

  • Directional selection
  • Analogous structures
  • Character displacement
  • Hybridization
  • Vestigial structures

Answer:

  • Character displacement

Explanation:

Competition is an ecological and evolutive process very common in nature. Competition might be intra- or interspecific. Competition between different species in a community or ecosystem might be due to the same resource use, or the same territory, shelter, etcetera. When a resource is useful for two or more species, and limited, they compete to gain it.

The principle of competitive exclusion states that different species with the same requirements sharing the niche can not coexist indefinitely based on the same limited resource. When <u>two competing species coexist, this is because of niche partitioning or niche differentiation</u>.

Differentiation of effective niche is closely related to <u>character displacement.</u>

<u>Character displacement</u> is the result of interspecific competition, in which two or more species that live in the same habitat manage to avoid competition by developing different traits. Morphological divergence, or any adaptative trait development, fixated genetically, is the product of niche segregation. Species tend to differentiate morphologically in the presence of strong competitors. Traits divergence favors coexistence in the same place.

In the exposed example, both species live in the same pond. But to avoid competition and competitive exclusion, species developed different teeth sizes to feed on different prey items.
