analogous structures

The right answer is analogous structures.

It is nevertheless interesting to note that several years before, a competition took place rather quickly between two types of mammals: the placentals and the marsupials, the Evolution having given in each of these two groups also armed individuals as we will see it next (We speak then of parallel evolution, that is the acquisition of similar characteristics in two species occupying the same space, not to be confused with a convergent evolution which gives identical attributes to two populations existing at times or in different ecosystems).

Which of the following choices correctly matches a tool and its proper application?
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A. "cell fractionation to study the function of specific organelles".

Explanation:

Cell fractionation is a scientific process used to study the function of specific organelles, which main idea is to fractionate the cells but preserving the individual function of the elements of the cell. Usually, the separation takes place by a centrifugation method. This methodology was developed to identify the location of the organelles within the cells, but nowadays is used to study its functions.

A fly has two alleles for the color of its eyes. The green allele is recessive, and is represented by q. The blue allele is domi
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

p = 0.34

Explanation:

The green allele is recessive, meaning two copies of q (qq) are required to be green. Conversely, animals that are either pp or pq will be blue.

If 44 organisms are green, that means 44 are qq.

For genotype frequencies, the equation is:

homozygous dominant genotype + heterozygous + homozygous recessive = 100%

Which is denoted as

p² + 2pq + q² = 1

We know that q² = 44/100 = 0.44

To work out q, we can do \sqrt{0.44} = 0.66

For allele frequencies, the total must add up to 100%, so

p + q =1

We know that q= 0.66

So p = 0.34, because 0.66 + 0.34 = 1

A scientist decides to study the effect of salt on a particular type of bacteria. Arrange the steps of the scientific method in
Debora [2.8K]
The scientific method is a problem-solving approach used in Biology and other scientific disciplines. This method has five basic steps which help scientists test their hypotheses. The first step of the scientific method is to make an observation. In this particular example, the scientist observes probably that salt has chemical and physical properties which could affect the life cycle of bacteria. The second step would be to ask a question and that would be to ask whether salt indeed has any effect on that particular type of bacteria that he/she studies. The third step would be to form a hypothesis and that would be to state that the specific bacterial type will be strongly affected by the salt. The fourth step would be to predict that if the scientist exposed this bacterial type to a salty environment, the bacteria would not survive. The fifth and final step is to test this prediction and if the bacteria do not survive, then the scientist can conclude that salt affects this bacterial type.
