Answer:
Disruptive selection.
Explanation:
Natural selection is the result of the phenotype-environment interaction which determines gene destiny in space and time, selecting beneficial alleles and increasing their frequency in the population. There are different types of natural selection: sexual selection, stabilizing selection, directional selection, frequency-dependent selection, and disruptive selection.
The disruptive selection causes an increase in the two types of extreme phenotypes over the intermediate forms. Limits between one extreme and the other are frequently very sharped. Individuals belonging to one phenotype can not live in the same area as individuals belonging to the other phenotype, due to the traits differences between them, competition, predation, etcetera.
In the proposed case, each population of mice is adapted to its environment: one of them is dark-furred as the color of the dark patches it lives on, and the other population is light-furred as it lives in light patches. These adaptations are probably related to survival strategies and help them to avoid predators as they camouflage with the substrate.
Both extreme phenotypes have been favored over intermediate forms, resulting in the development of two groups with very marked differences. Grey-furred mice population belongs to the intermediate phenotype which can be seen everywhere and be preyed upon more heavily. Disruptive selection does not favor this phenotype.
Disruptive selection can lead to speciation, driving to evolution. This is why it is also called "diversifying selection".

Which statement best describes a cause and its effect that occurs during the process of muscle contraction?
Answer:
Muscle contraction can be explained by sliding filament theory.
1. Activation of muscles: the motor nerve generates an impulse to transfer signals from neurons to neuromuscular junction. This stimulates sarcoplasmic reticulum to release calcium into the muscle cells.
2.Contraction of muscles: calcium in the muscle cells binds with troponin causes actin and myosin to bind. Actin and myosin in the muscle binds and contract by utilizing ATP as a source of energy.
Covalent modification:_____.
a. can involve the addition of phosphate groups.
b. can activate an enzyme.
c. produces modifications that can sometimes be reversed.
d. affects the activity of an enzyme by adding or removing a chemical group.
e. all of these are correct.
Answer: Option E.
All is correct.
Explanation:
A. can involve the addition of phosphate groups.
b. can activate an enzyme.
c. produces modifications that can sometimes be reversed.
d. affects the activity of an enzyme by adding or removing a chemical group.
Because Covalent modifications are enzymes catalyzed changes in the production of protein that involve the removal or addition chemical groups.
Covalent modifications can target a single or many Amino acids and it will alter their chemical properties.
Addition of phosphate group is a covalent modification because it control enzymes activity.
Covalent modification is reversible because it involves addition or removal of phosphoryl group to enzymes.
covalent attachment of another molecule can affect the activity of enzymes and many other proteins. In these occurence, the molecule that act as donor provides a functional moiety that modifies the properties of the enzyme.
Gene expression patterns can be used to test hypotheses based on morphology. For example, the regulatory gene Bapx1 is expressed in the hinge of the developing lower jaw in fishes and reptiles. Where would you predict Bapx1 expression to occur in mammals?
A. in the developing cheekbone
B. in the developing lower jaw
C. in the mature lower jaw
D. in the developing ear bones
Answer:
The correct answer is option D. "in the developing ear bones".
Explanation:
The developing lower jaw of fishes and reptiles has a variety of bones that are joined together, forming the mandible that they use to eat their preys. Some bones in the developing lower jaw of fishes and reptiles are equivalent to the developing ear bones of mammals. Therefore we can predict that the Bapx1 expression in mammals will occur in the developing ear bones. About this evolutionary relationship, scientist Zhe-Xi Luo of the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh states "Reptiles have [a] jaw full of ear bones from mammals and mammals have an ear full of jawbones of reptiles".

Damage to Schwann cells would result in Group of answer choices loss of the structural framework of the brain decreased speed of conduction ability to produce scar tissue at the site of an injury increased axoplasmic flow
Answer: decreased speed of conduction.
Explanation:
Schwann cells are type of cells of the peripheral nervous system that produce myelin sheath around neurosonal axons thereby increasing the saltatory function of neurons.
If Schwann cells are damaged it result in blockage of electric conduction which will produce secondary demeylination and resulting in shock or toxic immune shock.
Schwann cells produce myelin sheath will help to increase saltatory conduction but when it is damaged it will decrease conduction and result in shock.

Some people say that plants make their own food from the Sun through the process of photosynthesis. Based on
the law of conservation of energy, is this description accurate? Explain your response.
Answer:
No, it’s not accurate. The law of conservation of energy states that energy can’t be created or destroyed. Plants transform light energy from the Sun into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis.
Explanation:
plato
Yes, based on the law of conservation of energy, the description is accurate because plants convert light energy into chemical energy.
What is photosynthesis?Photosynthesis is the process of making food. It occurs in plants and organisms with chlorophyll, like plants, algae, etc. These organisms convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy.
Here, the law of conservation of energy says that energy can not be created or destroyed, it can only be transferred, the same happens in photosynthesis. The light energy from the sun converts into chemical energy.
Thus, Yes, the description fits according to the law of conservation of energy since plants turn light energy into chemical energy.

In the study of cancer, researchers have used different types of cells, different environmental conditions, and different experimental designs. But, all researchers have arrived at the same conclusion. What does this say about the conclusion? It is well supported. It is weakly supported. It is inconclusive. It is refuted.
Answer:
It is weakly supported.
Explanation:
All the factors in each experiment are different. There are not any controls to ensure the results are reliable. When all the factors vary, it cannot be determined whether the factor being tested was the cause of the result, or another factor was the cause. Although all the reasearchers reached the same conclusion, it cannot be proven whether it was caused by the specific factor being tested, or if it was merely a coincidence.
During multiple experiment, if the results are the same or indicate the same conclusion then the reliability of the conclusion increases. Thus option A is correct.
What is the conclusion?The conclusion is the sum of all the observations during our experiment that gives the outcome of our investigation.
During cancer research on the different types of cells, conditions, and different experimental designs end up with the same conclusion which makes it more reliable. So option A is correct.

Observe 5 different forms of life in your garden, orchard, living beings found with their characteristics and give an explanation of these forms.
Answer:
Explanation:
After going to my garden and observing carefully I have come to the conclusion that there are many forms of life.
The most common way of life is plants: which are mostly green, give us oxygen and some give us fruit or food.
Other forms of life that I observed were:
Birds: vertebrate animals that live on the fruits of trees, sing in the morning and have plumageThe worms: invertebrate animals that serve as compost for the earth. Ants, insects that work in an orderly way and that live in colonies under the ground.Flies, flying insects that help decompose animals.Imagine that a newly discovered species of fish normally has three eyes (E), but the rare mutation (ee) causes "diopthalmic" fish with two eyes to be born. In addition, eye color in these fish is inherited similarly to humans, with black eyes (B) being dominant to blue (bb). Assuming these two genes are carried on separate chromosomes, what must the genotypes of two black-eyed, three-eyed parents be if they have a blue-eyed, diopthalmic son
Answer:
Heterozygous with BbEe and BbEe
Explanation:
The genotypes of the two parents must be heterozygous.
From the illustration, E codes for three eyes while ee causes diopthalmic. B causes black eye while bb codes for blue eye.
Black eye genotypes could be BB or Bb.
Three eye genotype could be EE or ee.
A black eyed, three-eyed couple produced blue-eyed (bb), diopthalmic son (ee). From the law of inheritance, the son inheritance the alleles for each trait from the two parents, one from each. Hence, it means that each of the parent posses recessive alleles in their genotypes, that is they are heterozygous for the two traits.
BbEe x BbEe
9 BBEE black-eyed, three-eyed
3 B_ee Black-eyed, diopthalmic
3 bbEe Blue-eyed, three-eyed
1 bbee blue-eyed, diopthalmic
A new species of aquatic chordate is discovered that resembles an ancient form. It has the following characteristics: external armor of bony plates, paired lateral fins, and a bony skeleton. In addition to these, it will probably have which of the following characteristics?
a) legs
b) metamorphosis
c) an amniotic egg
d) no jaws
Answer:
a) legs
Explanation:
Based on these characteristics it can also be said that this species would have legs. This is due to this new species having paired lateral fins. That is because paired lateral fins refer to the pectoral and ventral fins, which are corresponding to the fore and hind legs of the higher animals. Meaning that this new species would have had to have legs if they had paired lateral fins, and a bony skeleton would help corroborate this finding.
Answer:
no jaws

C. The bird will fly only short distances because it will need to rest.
D. The bird will eat more food to build up its energy reserves in the
Krebs cycle.
SUBMIT
Answer:
B. The bird will stop flying because it will quickly use up its remaining
energy.
Explanation:
This is because the mitochondria is known as the power house of cells. Oxidative phosphorylation takes place in this organelle and it involves the conversion of ADP to ATP through the hydrogen ions(protons).
When the hydrogen ion channel is blocked, energy production in cells stop.
This is why the bird will stop flying as it would have used up its remaining energy and won’t have a new one to use to continue flying.
