Answer:
The correct answer is option c. "adaptive radiation".
Explanation:
The term "adaptive radiation" is used in evolutionary biology to describe a evolutionary history at which many different organisms are created as a result of a rapid diversification of an ancestral species. This phenomenon takes place as a result of changes in the environmental conditions that forces new species to adapt quickly. The scientist observations of many intermediate forms at different continents of an ancestral reptile, most strongly support the evolutionary model of adaptive radiation.
C) Increases genetic diversity is not an advantage of asexual reproduction
Answer:
The correct answers are A. "crenation", B. "hemolysis", C. "hemolysis", D. "crenation" and E. "neither will occur".
Explanation:
0.9% (m/v) NaCl or 5.0% (m/v) glucose are isotonic solutions at which the cells will not suffer any harmful consequence. A solution with a higher concentration than the isotonic conditions would result in the cells crenation, while a solution with a lower concentration would result in the cells hemolysis. Therefore the consequences of putting the red cells to the solutions stated in the question are as following:
A: 3.21% (m/v) NaCl Solution = crenation (higher than 0.9% (m/v) NaCl)
B: 1.65% (m/v) glucose Solution = hemolysis (lower than 5.0% (m/v) glucose)
C: distilled H2O Solution = hemolysis (lower than 0.9% (m/v) NaCl or 5.0% (m/v) glucose)
D: 6.97% (m/v) glucose Solution = crenation (higher than 5.0% (m/v) glucose)
E: 5.0% (m/v) glucose and 0.9%(m/v) NaCl = neither will occur (equal to 5.0% (m/v) glucose and 0.9% (m/v) NaCl)
