In comparing and contrasting different cultures, the gender roles:
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

d. vary and change for both males and females from culture to culture

Explanation:

Gender roles vary for both females and males across cultures. This can be observed in the way some societies are patriarchal and some are matriarchal. For example: in many Asian cultures, traditionally males head the families. It's their responsibility to engage in outside work and take important decisions for the family while women take care of household chores. This is reversed in some cultures like that present in Meghalaya, India. Here women are dominant figures in households. They inherit property, give their family name to children and after marriage the man comes to live with the woman's family. Hence gender roles are variable culture to culture.

What is the name for the science that studies evolution that oc-
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

D. Population genetics

Population genetics is the study of genetic variation within populations, and involves the examination and modelling of changes in the frequencies of genes and alleles in populations over space and time. ... In natural populations, however, the genetic composition of a population's gene pool may change over time.

Explanation:

microevolution - evolutionary change within a species or small group of organisms, especially over a short period. (Not studying the overall evolution in the population, just a single allele usually) Not it then

macroevolution - Macroevolution in the modern sense is evolution that is guided by selection among interspecific variation, as opposed to selection among intraspecific variation in microevolution (this goes over huge groups of different species) Not it then

gene pool - The gene pool is the set of all genes, or genetic information, in any population, usually of a particular species. (Not the study of evolution in a population) Not that then

So it has to be D

how do you think plant cells differ from animal cells? (Hint: what can plants do that animals cannot?
zvonat [6]
A difference between plant cells and animal cells is that most animal cells are round whereas most plant cells are rectangular.Plant cells have a rigid cell wall that surrounds the cell membrane. Animal cells do not have a cell wall. When looking under a microscope, the cell wall is an easy way to distinguish plant cells.

Difference Between Plant And Animal Cells 1 Chloroplast. Like animal cells plant cells have mitochondria. 2 Cell Wall. Animal cells do not contain a cell wall while plant cells and fungi cells do. 3 Vacuole. Vacuoles are very large membrane-bound sacs within plant cells.
