I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option 2. Abandoned farmland that once grew corn is now covered with bushes and small trees. These observed changes resulted directly from ecological succession. It <span> is the process of change in the species structure of an </span>ecological<span> community over time. </span>
Answer:
C. Standing upright allowed for sightlines over tall grasses and savanna shrubbery
Explanation:
One of the most accepted theories about the development of bipedalism of the hominids is that it was mostly because of the tall grasses and shrubs, so standing upright was providing them with better view. Once the environment changed, and the tropical rainforest was turned into savanna, the hominid ancestors had to adapt in order to survive. Being helpless against the large predators, they needed something in order to be able to detect them from bigger distance so that they can avoid them. The solution seemed to be to be able to see above the tall grasses and shrubs, which meant that they started to use their legs more and more in order to stand up taller. This gradually led to better development of legs for upright standing and walking, also causing changes in the structure of the body, providing the hominids with an adaptation that enabled them to survive in the very dangerous environment.
Answer:
Option A, Hormones are controlled by a feedback loop; information about a system is sent back to the controller of the system to improve its function.
Explanation:
Negative feedback loop controls the hormone production and release. This is done by eliciting the release of substances till a certain level after which the stop signal is activated thereby preventing further release. By this method, concentration of hormones in blood is maintained within the narrow range.
For example – Thyroid hormones is released when the anterior pituitary signals the thyroid. This continues till the hormones in the blood reach the threshold level. Once the threshold level is reached, hypothalamus receives a feedback and then signals anterior pituitary to inhibit further signaling to the thyroid
Hence, option A is correct
Answer:
a. Genotype of male parent= BbNn
Genotype of female parent: bbnn
b: Progeny ratio= 1: 1: 1: 1
c: 1/4
Explanation:
a. Genotype of male parent= BbNn
Genotype of female parent: bbnn
b. Gamete formed by the male parent: BN: Bn: bN: bn in 1:1:1:1 ratio.
Gametes formed by female parent: All gametes with "bn" alleles.
c. The probability that the offspring will have a genotype of Bbnn=
Bb x bb= 1/2 Bb: 1/2 bb
Nn x nn= 1/2 Nn: 1/2 nn
Therefore, probability that the offspring will have a genotype of Bbnn= 1/2 Bb x 1/2 nn= 1/2.
