Answer:

The double membrane of the mitochondria is highly folded,and therefore wider when unfolded than that of the nucleus.This is an adaptive feature  to increase the surface area for reactions (electrochemical  gradient) by accommodating protons pumped into it by the proton motive force(PMF)  from the matrix to set up the electrochemical gradients needed to generate the energy needed by ATPase synthase enzymes for ATPs synthesis.

Required number of protons needed to be accommodated by the double membrane to generate enough energy for ATPase synthesis,therefore larger surface area is needed.

A trait, such as height, has high heritability because much of the variation between individuals is the result of genetic variat
Len [333]

This is because the traits like height, are influenced by environmental conditions around the individual. For example, there are two children born to same mother. But one is given best facilities, nutrition and care, whereas other one is brought up by a poor family, which hardly get good food to eat. His condition is much worse than the first case. In such a situation, the former child will grow up healthy and fit, and will have more height than the later one. Although, both got genes from same parent, but the environmental conditions influenced the expression of those genes differently.

The images show two distantly related species of cactus that live in the same desert.
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

These plants look so similar because of convergent evolution/analogy.

Explanation:

Analogy in evolution is the development of similar or analogous structures in distantly related species occupying the same environment. This is because the species have developed similar adaptations, over time, which enables them to survive in their environment.

Select the appropriate shape for the given volume formula. V = pi r squared h. V = four-thirds pi r cubed. V = l w h. V = one-th
devlian [24]

Explanation:

          Volume of a cylinder = \pi r² h

          Volume of a sphere = \frac{4}{3}  \pi r³

          Volume of cone =  \frac{1}{3} \pi r² h

          Volume of cuboid = l w h

Where:

     r is the radius of the body measured

     h is the height

     l is the length

    w is the width

     

The volume of a body is the space it occupies and it refers to its size.

it is measured in cubic meters or cubic centimeters.
