Answer:

This conversion of one form of energy to another is called energy transformation.

Explanation:

Eye is one of the most important sensory organ of our body that helps in the perception of light.

   When we see a light at that time light energy is converted into neural messages and then carried to the brain by ophthalmic nerve for processing.

  Here the law of conservation of energy is maintained which states that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, energy can only be transformed.

EastWind [94]

Answer:

Gene is present on the X chromosome.

Explanation:

The two main types of chromosomes are autosomes and sex chromosomes. Autosomes regulates the functioning of the body but do not play role in determining the sex of an individual. The sex chromosomes distinguishes between the male and female.

The linkage of sex chromosomes is present in Drosophila as well. The cross between the F1 generation leads to both the red and white eyed flies because the eye color gene is present on the X chromosome. The males contain only one X chromosome and the presence of recessive gene results in the white color whereas in females both the X chromosomes must contain recessive gene for the white color.  

Thus, the answer is gene involved is on the X chromosome.

The key to the evolution of altruism is that a. recipients have to be more likely to carry the altruistic allele than nonrecipie
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. actors have to be more likely to carry the altruistic allele than non actors.

Explanation:

Altruism is the behavior by an organism that benefits other organisms by costing its own fitness. The actor is the individual who is doing altruism and the recipient is the individual who is getting benefited by the actor's altruism.

An example of altruistic behavior can be seen in animal kingdom easily. Vampire bats give blood to those members of the community who were not able to go for search for blood show altruistic behavior.

Actors have altruistic genes that suggest them to behave altruistically. Non-actors may not contain alleles of altruism but the recipient might have altruistic alleles.

Hamilton's rule says that natural selection will favor the altruistic allele when rb > c.

where r = coefficient of relatedness between donor and recipient

          b = benefit received by recipient and

          c = cost paid by altruist.

Therefore, the correct answer is b.

A close evolutionary relationship between annelids and mollusks is suggested by the presence of a _____ larva in both phyla as w
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

trocophore larva

Explanation:

The trocophore larva is a marine planktonic larvae. The mollusca, annelida, and nemerteans shows trocophore as larval stage.

The trocophore larva shows similarities with invertebrates group of organisms. This similarities provide evidence that bilateral symmetry organisms evolved from radial symmetry. The larva represents a transitional stage in ctenophore emergence. There are close similarities in trocophore larva and annelid larva (echinoderm). Thus, a close evolutionary relationship between annelids and mollusks is suggested by the presence of a <u>trocophore </u>larva in both phyla as well as by molecular sequence comparisons.
