Answer:
The reproduction of organisms without the need for sexual intercourse.
Explanation:
Many male birds will expend a great deal of energy building nests. Females will mate with the males who build the best nests. This is best described as an example of ____.
a. natural selection
b. sexual selection
c. runaway selection
d. an invasive species
e. disruptive selection
Answer:
The correct answer is option B. sexual selection.
Explanation:
Sexual selection is a special type of natural selection proposed by Charles Darwin. According to this type of natural selection in which a particular sex organism chooses the opposite sex member of the species to mate with on the basis of the preferable traits and compete with the other members of the opposite sex.
Here female birds choose those male birds who build the best nests, it is an example of natural selection.

What do you think humans should do in order to minimize the harmful effects of climate change? Do you think it is likely that we will take the necessary actions you describe? Why or why not?
Answer:
There are actually many things we humans can do to help save our planet.
Explanation:
Avoid the use of electrical appliances
Ride bicycles instead of cars
And above all I would suggest we plant lots and lots of trees that could be a good help because trees consumes the bad gas and release the good gases into our atmosphere which does not burn the ozone layer and climate change won't be a national issue.

consider the endosymbiont theory and the fact that chloroplasts contain dna molecules. given that chloroplast DNA has genes,
Answer/Explanation:
The endosymbiotic theory is the idea that eukaryotic cells evolved from the fusion of two prokaryotic cells that formed a symbiotic relationship, with one living inside the other.
An endosymbiont is one organism that lives inside another one.
The existence of mitochondria and chloroplasts, which contain their own DNA and ribosomes, supports this theory. Mitochondria are chloroplasts were once free-living organisms, they were prokaryotes that ended up inside of other cells.
Mitochondria and chloroplasts have genes that are very similar to the genes of prokaryotes. Their membranes look like the prokaryotic cell membrane, and they divide in similar ways.
The zika virus was first identified in Uganda in 1947. The virus is transmitted from person to person by a bite from a mosquito. It is commonly carried by the Aedes mosquito which is prevalent throughout Central Africa. The virus has more recently spread to the Americas (South, Central, and now North) and is expected to spread to Europe. There is a concern that the virus may reach epidemic proportions. Zika virus is related to yellow and dengue fever. Common symptoms are low grade fever and a distinctive skin rash and other symptoms include vomiting, headache, and muscle and/or joint pain. Pregnant women should avoid traveling to areas known to have zika virus present because the virus is known to cause microcephaly and developmental difficulties related to the central nervous system. Based on the paragraph above, class discussions, and other VALID (be careful with your selection of e-materials! CDC – Center for Disease Control is a good place to start) sources of information please answer the following questions.
1. State a reason why the virus has spread to the Americas and likely to spread to Europe.
2. Define the term microcephaly.
3. What bones of the fetal skull would be affected by zika? Specifically, what area of the CNS is not fully developed in microcephalic individuals.
Answer:
1. It is a highly contagious disease transmitted from person to person and thereby it is expected that infected persons carried the virus to America
2. Microcephaly is a serious birth defect where a baby’s head is much smaller than expected.
3. Occipital bone. CNS malformations: ventriculomegaly, parenchymal and periventricular calcifications and cortical migration anomalies
Explanation:
The Zika virus (Flaviviridae) causes a contagious disease and it is transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, which are also the main vectors of the dengue virus. Microcephaly is a condition where the baby’s brain has not developed properly during pregnancy, and it has been shown that this birth defect is associated with the Zika virus. During 2015 in Brazil, the incidence of infants with microcephaly born from mothers that contracted this disease during pregnancy was higher, thereby suggesting an association between both conditions. Baby health problems associated with Zika infection include microcephaly (skull partially collapsed), joints with limited motion, etc.

Animal cells do not have a cell wall, while plants don't. They both have different sizes, shapes, components, energy storages, and the amount of proteins.
The fungus Melampsora lini causes a disease known as flax rust. Different strains of M. lini cause varying degrees of the rust disease. Conversely, different strains of flax are resistant or sensitive to the various varieties of rust. The Bombay variety of flax is resistant to M. lini-strain 22 but sensitive to M. lini-strain 24. A strain of flax called 770B is just the opposite; it is resistant to strain 24 but sensitive to strain 22. When 770B was crossed to Bombay, all F1 individuals were resistant to both strain 22 and strain 24. When F1 individuals were self-fertilized, the following data were obtained:
43 resistant to strain 22 but sensitive to strain 24
9 sensitive to strain 22 and strain 24
32 sensitive to strain 22 but resistant to strain 24
110 resistant to strain 22 and strain 24
Required:
Explain the inheritance pattern for flax resistance and sensitivity to M. lini strains.
Answer:
Explanation:
Using the Mendelian approach to solve this question, we will understand that the mendelian approach has a pattern for inherited traits.
From the data set given, the total number of the population is:
43+9+32+110 = 194
However, their ratio are being calculated as follows:
43/194 = 0.22
9/194 = 0.05
32/194 = 0.16
110/194 = 0.57
After comparison with the Mendelian's approach, we realize that these results seem to be similar to the 9:3:3:1 ratio.
i.e.
3/16 = 0.18
1/16 = 0.06
3/16 = 0.18
9/16 = 0.56
The inheritance pattern obviously dictates that the flax experiment proceeds in the pattern found in the Mendelian's Approach and the resistance of the two different strains were arbitrated by two traits.

I NEED HELP ASAP Sensors on a spider's legs feel the vibrations of a trapped insect and relay the information to the spider's brain through nerve electrical signals. For nerve cells to maintain these electrical potentials, sodium must be removed from the cell and potassium must be moved into the cell. Describe why this process is a form of active transport and what is required for active transport to occur?
Answer:
Please find the explanation below
- Energy (ATP) is needed for active transport to occur
Explanation:
According to this question, sensor's on a spider's legs relay information via nerve electrical signals to the brain when the vibrations of a trapped insect is felt. However, for nerve cells to maintain this electric potential, ACTIVE TRANSPORT must be carried out by removing sodium from the cell and potassium must be moved into the cell.
This is a form of ACTIVE TRANSPORT because pottasium ions are moved into the cell against concentration gradient i.e. from a region where it is in low concentration to where it is in high concentration. This active transport process is usually accompanied by the use of energy in form of ATP.

Explanation:
Use a punnett square to put this question into an easy to understand visual tool.
You are performing an experiment with Primase, using a specific DNA template. In this experiment, you provide NTPs (ATP, UTP, CTP, GTP) which contained only one radioactive phosphate group, in the alpha-phosphate position (the alpha- phosphate is the one attached to the sugar. the other phosphates are beta and gamma). After RNA synthesis occurs, you separate the resultant RNA strand any of the NTPs that have not been incorporated into the RNA, and measure the radioactivity of the newly synthesized RNA.A) In this experiment, would you expect the newly synthesized RNA be radioactive? Explain why.B) If you forgot to add CTP when you did the experiment, would the resulting RNA be radioactive?C) If you did the experiment, with all the NTPs provided, but only the beta phosphate was radioactive for each of the NTPs, would radioactivity be found in the RNA? Explain why.D) If you did the experiment, with all the required NTPs, but only the ATP was radiolabelled Would radioactivity be found in the RNA? Explain why.
Answer:
(a). Yes.
(b). RNA becomes Radioactive.
(c). No.
(d). It depends. If the gamma phosphate and beta phosphate are not labeled, then the RNA will have certain degree of radioactivity.
Explanation:
So, let us do right into the explanation behind the answers to the questions asked.
(a). The answer to this part of the question is "Yes" because in creating or in the formation of the glycosidic bond, all the alpha phosphate group were taken into consideration that is they were all used, thus making the newly synthesized RNA to be radioactive.
(b). The RNA becomes Radioactive is the answer to this part of this question because CTP is needed in the experiment.
(c). The answer to this part (c) of this question is ''No'' because the only thing that takes part in bonding is the alpha phosphate.
(d). It depends. If the gamma phosphate and beta phosphate are not labeled, then the RNA will have certain degree of radioactivity.
