Answer:

The most important function of osmosis is stabilizing the internal environment of an organism by keeping the water and inter cellular fluids levels balanced. In all living organisms, nutrients and minerals make their way to the cells because of osmosis. This is very essential to the survival of a cell.

Answer: Osmosis provides the primary means by which water is transported into and out of cells. Osmosis is of prime importance in living organisms as it influences the distribution of nutrients and the release of metabolic wastes products such as urea.

serg [7]

When Charles Darwin considered wings of birds, apart from his famous proposal he also predicted that fossils will be found with structures that are intermediate between early and modern form.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Charles Darwin was basically referring to transitional Fossil while considering Wings of bird. So what are transitional fossil? They are the fossil remains of both the ancestral group and the descendant group.  

Since we don’t have enough record of the fossils, it is very difficult to know the accuracy of transitional fossil.  However, we do have some record of fossils from which we can gather enough evidence of how the fossils where earlier and how it evolved over a period of time.

In the the fruit fly Drosophila, there is a dominant gene for normal wings and its recessive allele for vestigial wings. At anot
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

15

Explanation:

According to linkage theory, two genes present on the same chromosome tend to get inherited together. So the gametes produced are not equal in number and parental type offspring are observed more in number than the new recombinant types.

Here, normal wings, red eyes (420) and vestigial wings, purple eyes (430) are most in number hence they are the parental type offspring.

Vestigial wings, red eyes = 80 : recombinant

Normal wings, purple eyes = 70 : recombinant

Distance between two genes in cM = recombination frequency = (total number of recombinants / total progeny)*100

= [(80+70)/(420+80+70+430)]*100

= (150/1000)*100

= 0.15*100 = 15cM
