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!

Ann [662]
<span>Hippocrates believed that there are four humors in human body which need balance for a healthy being. These were:
Blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile.</span>
Galen expanded the idea of the humors and introduced four temperaments which were these:
choleric (hot / dry), melancholic (cold / dry), sanguine (warm / moist), and phlegmatic (cold / moist).
Another expansion Galen did was that he gave each humor/temperament physical and psychological qualities and said that even the food items have an association with the certain humor, those foods can effect certain humor in certain ways.

Levart [38]

Answer: A. scalp hairs grow constantly throughout life.

Explanation:

Hair is a squamous keratinized epithelium which is consist of multi-layered flat cells.  Hair are made up of protein called "keratin".

The statement "scalp hairs grow constantly throughout life" is false because at a particular age or due to several factors scalp hairs stop growing.

Scalp hair growth rate depends on three main factors including sex (female hair grows faster than male), age (hair growth slows with age), and ethnicity (Asian hair grows slower than Caucasian hair).

Scalp hair growth stops because of  follicle devitalization when the hair length become two or three feet.

Hence, the correct answer is A. "scalp hairs grow constantly throughout life".
