Answer:

I have paired together the matching misconceptions and the explanations down below (please note that it is in the order misconception followed by explanation).

Explanation:

  • Biological evolution explains the origin of life.
  • Biological evolution did not begin until life existed.

  • Evolution occurs in order to help a species survive.
  • Evolution does not have a plan. New adaptations arise by mutations, which occur randomly.

  • Individuals can evolve.
  • Mechanisms of evolution may act on Individuals (or even on genes), but by definition evolution always occurs at the level of the population.

  • Beneficial traits acquired during an individual's life are passed to the next generation.
  • Acquired characteristics are not typically inherited.

  • All members of a population develop new traits simultaneously .
  • If an adaptation were to arise, then it would originate in a single individual, not in the entire population. The new trait would then be subject to natural selection.

  • Evolution and natural selection are the same thing.
  • Natural selection is one mechanism of evolution. Mutation, genetic drift, migration, and nonrandom mating are other mechanisms of evolution.

  • Evolution only happens when conditions change dramatically.
  • Minor changes in the environment may be sufficient to trigger selection for different traits.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

melomori [17]
In scientific reasoning, a hypothesis is made before any applicable analysis has been done. A theory, on the opposite hand, is supported by evidence: it is a principle shaped as an effort to clarify things that have already been supported by knowledge<span>.

Hypothesis: A projected clarification for a development created as a place to begin for additional investigation.

Theory: A well-substantiated rationalization nonheritable through the methodology and repeatedly tested and confirmed through observation and experimentation

Although both br3- and i3- ions are known, the f3- ion has not been observed. explain.
Sliva [168]
Fluorine, iodine and bromine are all in the same group. Fluorine been the first element in the group has less number of electron orbitals compare with bromine and iodine. Bromine and iodine has D orbitals which can take part in their bonding activities, this allows the elements to bond in a variety of ways, but fluorine does not have the D orbital and therefore is limited in its ion formation. <span />

Somatic cells of roundworms have four individual chromosomes per cell. How many chromosomes would you expect to find in an ovum
andrezito [222]

Answer:

2 chromosomes

Explanation:

The cell of an eukaryotic organism like roundworm contains the Nucleus, which harbors the genetic material embedded in the chromosome. The number of chromosomes of that organism is contained in each cell.

Somatic cells, also called body cells, are all other cells asides sperm and eggs, that form the tissues and organs of an organism. Somatic cells are usually diploid i.e two sets of chromosomes from each parent. In this question, the roundworm has 4 chromosomes in its somatic cell.

The reproductive cells or sex cells (sperm and eggs) of an organism always result from meiotic division of specialized cells.

Since meiosis is a kind of division that results in cells with their chromosome number reduced by half (haploid), it therefore means that the ovum and sperm cell will be expected to contain 2 chromosomes each.

This way, when fertilization occurs (sperm and egg fusion), the resulting zygote, which will eventually develop into an adult organism, will have 4 chromosomes.
