Imagine a population of moths. White moths are easier for birds to see and eat. Black moths blend into their surroundings, so they are less visible to birds than white moths. As a result, black moths are more likely to survive and reproduce, enabling the gene for black coloration to be passed on to the next generation. This increases the frequency of genes for black coloration in the population. Which evolutionary process does this scenario describe

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is - natural selection.

Explanation:

Natural selection is a process of adapting according to the environmental change in order to survive and reproduce and increase their number. It is represented by Darwin for the first time. Natural selection leads to evolution.

In this case, White moths adapt according to the environment by increasing the population of black moths in order to blend with the surrounding and as the result, black moths are more likely to produce and survive and passed this trait to the next generation.

Answers

Question:

Use the following dichotomous key to identify an irregular blue flower with five petals and a fruit that is a ripened flower ovary or follicle.

Dichotomous Key of Ranunculaceae

#1.

a. Fruit is a group of alkenes.............................. go to step 2

b. Fruit is a group of follicles..............................go to step 4

#2.

a. Petals are not present.....................................go to step 3

b. Petals are present............................................Ranunculus

#3.

a. The flower has 4 sepals.................................. Clematis

b. The flower has 5 sepals................................... Anemone

#4.

a. The flowers are regular..................................... Aquilegia

b. The flowers are irregular................................... Delphinium

The flower is a: A. Anemone B. Clematis C. Delphinium D. Ranunculus

Answer:

The species belongs to Delphinium genera.

Explanation:

A dichotomous key is relatively simple to interpret. All you need to do is to:

- carefully observe your organism,

- know some technical terms or have a biological dictionary, and

- follow the descriptions.

The dichotomous key is going to lead you to the answer.

In the example, we have a plant species with irregular blue flowers and five petals. The fruits are a ripened flower ovary or follicles.

Irregular flower: Term that refers to asymmetrical flowers that only have one plane. Follicle: Term that refers to dry dehiscent fruits originated from a flower with only one carpel. When mature, they open by the ventral suture.

So, let us begin, step by step. For each number, we are going to have two options (a and b). By knowing our organism, we need to decide which one is correct and follow indications.

#1.

a. Fruit is a group of alkenes.............................. go to step 2.

b. Fruit is a group of follicles..............................go to step 4.

We know that our fruit is a follicle. Option a is not correct (it is not a group of alkenes). Option b is the correct one. Knowing this, we must go to step four. ***Note: In the hypothetical case that the fruits were a group of alkenes, and option a was correct, we should go to step two, as indicated***.

#4.

a. The flowers are regular..................................... Aquilegia

b. The flowers are irregular................................... Delphinium  

We know that our flower is an irregular one. So the correct option is b. This option leads us to Delphinium genera. Our species belongs to this taxonomic group. ***Note: In the hypothetical case that the fruit was actually a regular flower, and option a was correct, our species would belong to Aquilegia genera***

The rocket will then be at least 19.5 m above the ground for the interval 0.75≤t≤3.25  

0.75≤t≤3.25

The time interval for which the rocket is more than 3200 km above the ground level is 61.25 seconds.

What is quadratic equation?

To solve this problem, we need to find the time interval for which the rocket's distance above the ground level is greater than 3200 km.

We can start by setting the equation for the rocket's distance above the ground level equal to 3200:

We can then solve this equation for t using the quadratic formula

[tex]480t - 16t^2 = 3200\\t = (-480 +/- sqrt(480^2 - 4*(-16)*3200)) / (-32)\\This simplifies to:\\t = (-480 +/- sqrt(480^2 + 256000)) /\\ (-32)t = (-480 +/- sqrt(2304000)) /\\ (-32)t = (-480 +/- 1500) / (-32)t = (-1980) /\\(-32)t = 61.25t = -24.25\pi[/tex]

Since the time interval we are looking for is positive, we can ignore the negative solution. The time interval for which the rocket is more than 3200 km above the ground level is therefore 61.25 seconds.

Answers

Answer:

Classification is the way scientists use to categorize and organize all of life. It can help to distinguish how similar or different living organisms are to each other

Explanation:

Patterns are used in science to classify objects or phenomena into groups. There are patterns of both similarity and difference.

What is classification?

Classification is the way scientists use to group and categorize objects, phenomenon or life forms. It can help to distinguish how similar or different living organisms are to each other based upon the pattern of their structure and organization.

Patterns are regular and intelligible forms , sequences, or structure that  found throughout nature. Scientific questions may be generated when scientists observe a pattern of events or when something does not match an established pattern.

For example, the frozen water in an iceberg is arranged into a regular, repeating crystal structure—a pattern of similarity. Young children can observe a common pattern of difference, the differences between adult animals and their offspring.

Thus, it is clear from above explanation,  the ways to use patterns of classification in science.

Comparing the genomes of each species to see which are most similar
Determining whether the plants are capable of both sexual and asexual reproduction
Determining which types of animals eat each species

Answers

Comparing the genomes of each species to see which are most similar

Determining the genomes of each species to see which is similar will provide the best evidence regarding the evolutionary relationship of these species. So the correct option is B.

What are evolutionary relationships?

The relationships of different species with each other based on their history of evolution are called evolutionary relationships.

The study of the relationships between organisms by categorizing them into various kinds of groups is called systematics.

All the species of organisms, from bacteria to mammals have evolved from some kind of ancestral species by the process of evolution.

Determination of these evolutionary relationships is the key to understanding the process of evolution. Evolutionary relationships are determined by using evolutionary trees which are diagrammatic representations of ancestral species and their descendants.

The study of genomics to identify the similarity between organisms is yet another useful tool to determine the relationship between them.

Therefore the correct option is B.
