Which of the following is an example of adaptation? A rabbit population in which all of the members change fur color from brown

to white as the seasons change A butterfly population where each individual makes more of an enzyme for processing toxins as its exposure to toxic plants increases An eagle population where adult eagles develop a tolerance for invasive mites over five years A fish population in which the average skin brightness decreases over several generations in the presence of predators

Answer:

The correct answer is "A fish population in which the average skin brightness decreases over several generations in the presence of predators"

Explanation:

In biology, an adaptation is defined as an evolutionary response at which a group of organism develop new traits or behaviors as result of new environmental conditions. In this case, a fish population which skin brightness decreases over several generations in the presence of predators is an example of an adaptation. The fish decreasing its bright skin is the new trait developed as a result of the presence of predators, and as stated, adaptation occurs over several generations not within one generation.

1. Which of the following molecules is broken down in cellular respiration, providing fuel for the cell?
vladimir1956 [14]
1. Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that occurs inside the cell. During cellular respiration, glucose molecule is broken down in the presence of oxygen.

2. During cellular respiration, ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) molecule is also produced that acts as energy currency and directly powers cell work.

3. Amylase is an enzyme that helps in digestion. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch into simple sugars. If amylase is present in normal amount it will break down starch into disaccharides. If the amount of disaccharidase amount is less than usual then less disaccharides will be broken down into monosaccharides. Thus the production of monosaccharides will decrease.

4. In the reactions shown above, the end product is largely dependent on the last enzyme. If Enzyme3 is in less amount than usual then there will be greatest reduction in the production of G and H. This is because the formation of product in any reaction is dependent on the substrate concentration and enzyme concentration.

When a neuron fires and its electric charge travels down the axon, causing neurotransmitters to be released by the neuron's term
marta [7]

Answer:

When a neuron fires and its electric charge travels down the axon, causing neurotransmitters to be released by the neuron's terminal buttons, an <u>action potential</u> occurs.

Explanation:

An action potential, commonly termed as impulse, can be described as messages which are transferred in electrical form. Action potential are caused due to different electric charges. An action potential is generated by  a stimulus which causes transfer of sodium ions into the axons resulting in depolarization of the neuron. To overcome this, potassium ion will enter the cell and an action potential will be generated.

The action potential causes release of the neurotransmitters so that signal messages could be transferred.

il63 [147K]

Answer: The pathology described in the question is "testicular torsion".

The most sensitive physical exam that is specific to this pathology is testing for reflexes. The inner thigh of the affected side when rubbed should cause the testicle to contract; but in this pathology, it does not.

Explanation:

Testicular torsion is a condition caused by the twisting of the spermatic cord, which causes a loss of blood flow to the testicle. It is the leading cause of testicular loss in adolescent boys, if no surgical intervenvention is carried out as soon as possible.
