Exaptation
Explanation:
In this example, the lateral extensions that developed were meant for thermoregulation.
But these became sufficiently large to support gliding through the air and later on were used for flight.
Thus the structure assumed a function for which it was not meant and its original function shifted to a completely different dimension giving rise to modern insect wings. So we can say that this is an example of Exaptation.
Answer:
According to the diagram, what is occurring in step 7 is cytokinesis, with the separation of two daughter cells, following cell division.
Explanation:
Cytokinesis is a process that occurs at the end of mitosis or meiosis, being the final step of cell division. This mechanism allows the <u>separation of the two daughter cells</u>, with equal distribution of cytoplasm and formation of cell membrane, differentiating into two independent cells.
In the diagram it can be observed (step 7) that after the division process —in yellow— two arrows pointing to two cells are evident, which implies the process of cytokinesis.
Prior to the cytokinesis process, karyokinesis occurs, which is the separation of nuclei and formation of the nuclear membrane.
In animal cells, karyocinesis occurs by the effect of a ring of actin and myosin that helps to force the separation. In the plant cell, the fragmoplast is formed, a septum that induces the separation of the daughter cells.
The other options are not correct because:
- <u><em>Cell growth</em></u><em> occurs in G1 phase.</em>
- <u><em>Cell preparation</em></u><em> occurs in interphase.</em>
- <u><em>DNA replication</em></u><em> occurs in S phase.</em>
- <u><em>Mitosis</em></u><em> is represented in yellow, and involves 4 phases.</em>
Answer:
that allele pairs separate during the formation of gametes. This means that traits are transmitted to offspring independently of one another.
Explanation:
Answer:
C. Ecosystems can have different conditions
Explanation:
Different systems have different ecosystems meaning different things will happen to the life inhabiting them
