As you study two closely related predatory insect species, the two-spot and the three-spot avenger beetles, you notice that each

species seeks prey at dawn in areas without the other species. However, where their ranges overlap, the two-spot avenger beetle hunts at night and the three-spot hunts in the morning. When you bring them into the laboratory and isolate the two different species, you discover that the offspring of both species are nocturnal. You have discovered an example of ________.a. Batesian mimicry
b. mutualism
c. resource partitioning
d. character displacement

Answer:

d. Character displacement

Explanation:

Character displacement is the phenomenon in which the similar species living in the same geographical region with similar niches differentiate in order to reduce their niche overlap and avoid competitive exculsion. Just like in this case of two- spot and three -spot avenger beetles as their timmings for hunting is different where their ranges overlap. So it's the good example of character displacement,

Answer: The correct answer is option D

CHARACTER DISPLACEMENT

Explanation: Character displacement is a type of evolutionary change or divergence,in character displacement, two similar species inhabit the same environment. under such conditions, natural selection favors a divergence in the characters,morphology(forms), ecology (relations of organisms to one another and to their physical surroundings), behaviors, or physiology (functions) of the organisms.

Character displacement is caused by when similar species that live in the same geographical region, occupying similar niches differentiate themselves so as to minimize/reduce niche overlap and avoid competitive exclusion/ behaviours among themselves.

From the explanation given,character displacement is clearly seen in the avenger beetles from the question.

Answer:

The test cross is shown below

      T         T

t      Tt         Tt

t       Tt         Tt

The alleles shown in the vertical side (tt) are recessive and come from the male parent. The alleles TT are dominant and come from the female parent.

For the variety of offsprings to be 100% tall, the recessive parent had to be crossed with a homozygous dominant parent.  If the female was heterozygous with which the cross was done,then there would be small tomato plants in the offspring generation.

In sedimentary rock the oldest fossils would be expected to be found
eduard

Answer:

At the bottom of the sequence

Explanation:

According to the "principle of superposition of strata", the oldest rocks are formed at the bottom of sedimentary rock sequences.

The oldest rock layer would contain the the oldest fossil. Weathering, erosion, transportation and deposition would bring all sediments which includes rock materials and remains of living organisms to the basin where they would be lithified to form sedimentary rocks. This makes the oldest fossil to be at the bottom of the sequence. As time progresses, the fossil sequence would continue to accumulate and young upwards as the strata becomes relatively younger. Also, we know that fossils succeed one another in a definite manner.

This why relative dating of rocks can be possible.
