A nectar-eating bird has a slightly more curved beak than average for its species. This allows the bird to more easily access ne

ctar from plants. During the bird’s lifetime, it loses a toe on its left foot due to an accident. IT learns to compensate for this loss and is not greatly impacted. Which of this bird’s traits could it potentially spread through the species’ future population? Question 1 options: a. The slightly more curved beak because it is an acquired trait that would be beneficial to future offspring. b. The lack of a toe on the left foot because it is an acquired trait that would be beneficial to future offspring. c.The slightly more curved beak because it is a beneficial trait that is encoded in the bird’s genes. d. The lack of a toe on the left foot because it is a beneficial trait that is encoded into the bird’s genes.

C. 

Every change in a species is coded within the DNA. But the bird had lost a toe an accident. So the toe-loosing-option isn't true because not every bird looses his toe.

(Example: If a women gets bitten by a snake on the arm and gets the arm removed from her body and then in a year or so has a baby with her new husband. The baby won't be born with one arm because his/her mother lost her arm.) <span />

Explain how mutations cause cancer cells.
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Cancer is unchecked cell growth. Mutations in genes can cause cancer by accelerating cell division rates or inhibiting normal controls on the system, such as cell cycle arrest or programmed cell death. As a mass of cancerous cells grows, it can develop into a tumor.

What would you do if you had no Tap water
marissa [1.9K]

I would calmly check the breaker panel to verify that the power hadn't simply gone off again. I'd troubleshoot back to the pump, then its suction pipe from the well, then peek at the water level in the well. If the well had run dry, I'd - still calmly - step into my shop and take the stainless-steel buckets down from the high shelf above the Porter-Cable routers and walk across the road with them. I'd step over the guardrail, then walk down the embankment to the Waits River, where I'd fill my buckets and bring them - full - back to the house.

It's hard to tell. I was looking at a diagram representing the atmosphere. 50 miles is right on the edge of the Mesosphere. The temperature is about - 135 or so. It does climb up to about - 49 according to the Royal BC Museum.

Which best illustrates how Gregor Mendel used creativity that lead to scientific discovery?O He noticed that traits were passed
Svet_ta [14]
<span>As I know Gregor Mendel - Austrian naturalist, botanist and a religious leader, a monk, founder of the doctrine of heredity (Mendelism). By applying statistical methods for the analysis of results of the hybridization of pea varieties, formulated the laws of heredity. In 1856, Mendel began his experiments in crossing different varieties of peas, differing in a single, strictly defined criteria (for example, the shape and color of seeds). Precise quantitative account of all types of hybrids and statistical processing of the results of experiments that he conducted for 10 years, allowed him to formulate the basic laws of heredity - the splitting and combining of hereditary "factors". Mendel showed that these factors are separated and not crossing merge and disappear. Although the crossing of two organisms with contrasting features (for example, yellow or green seeds) in the next generation of hybrids appears only one of them.</span>
