Biology

Georgia [21]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

New allele combinations are acted upon by natural selection.

Explanation:

Recombination may be defined as the process of the exchange of the genetic material between the homologous chromosomes of the non sister chromatid. The combined trait will be visible in the upcoming generation.  

The recombination allows the generation of the new genes in the population. These new genes if beneficial for the population will be pass to the next generations. The new allele will be favored by the natural selection and increases the chance of survival of the population.

Thus, the correct answer is new allele combinations are acted upon by natural selection.

Which of the following statement(s) is/are TRUE about Red Blood Cells (RBCs)? a) A normal RBC has a nucleus RBCs' production is
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

RBCs' production is controlled by erythropoietin.

Mature RBCs are released into the bloodstream after approximately seven days RBCs are produced in the bone marrow

Explanation:

The hormone erythropoietin is produced and released in the bloodstream by peritubular interstitial cells of kidneys. The function of erythropoietin is to increase the number of the precursors of red blood cells and thereby to stimulate the production of red blood cells in the bone marrow. When the oxygen supply to body cells is reduced, the hormone erythropoietin stimulates the development of proerythroblasts into reticulocytes and thereby increases the RBC production.

RBCs are produced by the process of erythropoiesis and take about seven days to become mature and to be released in circulation to serve the function of oxygen delivery. The maturation of RBCs also includes the loss of most of the organelles such as the nucleus and mitochondria to accommodate hemoglobin protein. The life span of circulating RBCs is about 100-120 days.

Mariyam, a marine biologist, measures the length of a great white shark at 4.5 m long and its teeth at an average of 50 mm long.
Oksana_A [137]
Metres are exactly 100 cm in length, the easiest way to go from metres to centimetres is to simply add the extra 1 or 2 zeros, so 4.5 metres would be 450 centimetres.

As for the millimetres, 1mm is equal to 0.1cm, once again, just move the decimal forward by one numeral, and you'll have the converted value, making 50mm = 5.0cm.

Your shark would be 450cm long and have teeth with an average length of 5cm.
