What observation did Darwin make that suggested there had been geological changes in Earth's history?

Answers

Answer 1 : D) Inheritance of acquired characteristics

Jean-Baptiste Lamarck propose a mechanism by which gradual change of species may occur.

According to him the traits an organism gained during its lifetime could be passed to its offspring.

Example: If a giraffe stretched its neck gradually by stretching to reach leaves for many years, Lamarck believed the offspring may have longer necks.

Answer 2: A) Giant Tortoises

Charles Darwin visited Galapagos Islands in 1835. During his visit he observed that different species were in a constant battle for survival with each other, and because of that battle there was a variation in the tortoise that live on the sand and those that live in the water.

Which of the following classes of biological molecules consist of both small molecules and macromolecular polymers?A) lipidsB) carbohydrates
C) proteins
D) nucleic acids
E) lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids all consist of only macromolecular polymers

Answers

Answer:

(Correct option is B) Carbohydrates.

Explanation:

Biological molecules are known as the molecules which are found in the organisms, and play some important roles like development, cell division, and morphogenesis. They are necessary for the life.

Carbohydrates are known as the classes of biological molecules which consist of small molecules, and macromolecular polymers both. Carbohydrate are divided into three subtypes of essential macromolecules:

1) Monosaccharides: Fructose, galactose, and glucose are isomers of monosaccharide.

2) Disaccharides: Sucrose is the isomer of disaccharide.

3) Polysaccharides: Starch, cellulose, and glycogen are example of polysaccharide.

Glucose, and sucrose are known as the small molecules of carbohydrates, and other molecules of carbohydrate such as polysaccharides are known as macromolecular polymers.

What are centrioles?

Answers

A centriole is a small set of microtubules arranged in a specific way

Answer:

Centrioles  _ are small cell organelles, found near nucleus of animal cells. These organelles function in formation of spindle fibers at the time of cell division, required for the proper separation of chromosomes in daughter cells.

Explanation:

Sea otters are important predators of sea urchins, an animal that eats giant brown kelp in continental shelf zones where they form huge kelp beds. It was observed that the removal of sea otters from the west coast led to an increase in the sea urchin population. These sea urchins fed on the large kelp fronds, destroying the kelp beds that serve as an important source of food and protection for spawning fish. What role does the sea otter play in this case? Dominant species Invasive species Keystone species

Answers

In some case, I would say the sea otter would be both a dominant and keystone specie. Sea otters are main predators and most often are at the top or near the top of the food chain (whales and sharks would trump them easily as the top predators), but in this specific situation, the sea otter is a keystone species. A keystone species is an organism that more often than not an ecosystem can not continue without. In this situation, without the sea otter to control the sea urchin population is grew out of control and caused the expulsion of the giant brown kelp and havoc for the spawning fish. Thus, the sea otter is a must.

the answer is C
