Why might (mostly) boneless creatures, like jellyfish, sea slugs, squid, and octopuses, fare especially well underwater? What is

it about the physics of being underwater that would allow relatively large, sometimes highly mobile creatures to flourish that isn’t true for boneless land creatures?

Answer:

The species that develop in aquatic environments, need to be able to have an adequate locomotion and according to the hydrostatic pressure in the water, which this pressure has the opposite direction to gravity in terrestrial life.

Explanation:

Vertebrates that have a skeleton are accustomed to gravitational forces, and this bone structure is what allows adequate locomotion to perform movements as a function of the force of earth's gravity, in water the force of gravity has no effect, since that the hydrostatic force predominates, which the direction is opposite to the gravitational forces.

Amorphous bodies, with few solid structures, not bony, make them better adapt to movements in water masses that are promoted by hydrostatic forces.

.What are the genotypes of the parents in the monohybrid cross below if the following offspring genotypes are predicted?
Anit [1.1K]

As you can see in the diagram presented below, the correct genotypes of the parents are TT and Tt.

Each parent give its children only one chromosome of the chromosome pair, therefore only one allele of the gene.

In our case, TT and Tt is the correct answer because one of the parents has to have the t allele to give to the Tt offspring.

But if both of the parents were Tt, one of the offspring would have tt genotype, and if the parents were TT and tt, all of the offspring would be Tt. Therefore, the TT x Tt combination is the only possible answer.

Threonine is a standard amino acid with a polar side chain.Identify the chiral centers in threonine. a. the carboxyl carbon b. t
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

Threonine has two chiral centers.

The correct options are c. carbon b and d. carbon c

Explanation:

Chiral centers are those that have four different groups of atoms bonded to it. Carbon a has three atoms of hydrogen attached to it so it can't be a chiral carbon. It isn't the carboxyl carbon either since it is double bonded to oxygen. And the amino nitrogen does not qualify anyway because it is bonded to three different groups of atoms, not four.

Q. A person’s blood glucose level fluctuates during the day, asrepresented in Figure 1. Two hormones, insulin and glucagon,are di
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

If the person has another meal after 5 pm, the glucose level in the blood will increase, and the insulin level too.

Several hours after the meal, the glucose levels will decrease, and the glucagon levels will increase.

Explanation:

When a person ingests another meal after 5 p.m, the glucose levels in the blood will increase, as the body does not need all that glucose right now the insulin levels in the blood will increase to store glucose for later. The glucagon levels after a meal are very low because the aim is to store glucose not use it.

Several hours after the meal, the body needs the energy to keep operating so it will use the glucose that was stored, to do this, the levels of glucagon in blood have to increase and release the glucose, and the levels of insulin in blood have to decrease.

STatiana [176]
Therefore, Wendy's genotype must be bb and her father's must be Bb. 

The genotype is your total heritable hereditary character; it is your one of a kind genome that would be uncovered by individual genome sequencing. In any case, the word genotype can likewise allude just to a specific quality or set of qualities conveyed by a person. For instance, in the event that you convey a change that is connected to diabetes, you may allude to your genotype just as for this transformation without thought of the various quality variations that you may convey.
