Answer:
The duplication of a cluster of four Hox genes is equally likely as the duplication of a single Hox gene.
Explanation:
This comes from the definition of the parsimony principle, which is the action of choosing the simplest scientific explanation fitting the given evidence, meaning that all other elements are equal when evaluating the hypothesis. In biology the best hypothesis is the one that requires the fewest evolutionary changes.
Since three independent duplications of an individual Hox gene is in evolutionary terms, more complex than a single duplication or a cluster, then that hypothesis would be the most parsimonious.
Answer: intercalary meristem
Explanation: meristematic tissue at the base of the leaf blade is ben to the plant growth
Answer:
In trees, most savanna adaptations are to drought--long tap roots to reach the deep water table, thick bark for resistance to annual fires (thus palms are prominent in many areas), deciduousness to avoid moisture loss during the dry season, and use of the trunk as a water-storage organ (as in baobab).
Answer;
-PET scan
A PET scan uses radioactive markers in the blood to monitor blood flow and metabolic activity via x-ray
Explanation;
-A positron emission tomography (PET) scan is an imaging test that helps reveal how the tissues and organs are functioning. A PET scan uses a radioactive drug (tracer) to show this activity. This scan can sometimes detect disease before it shows up on other imaging tests.
-A PET scan is used to diagnose certain health conditions, to plan treatment, to find out how an existing condition is developing, and to see how effective a treatment is.
-In a PET scan, a machine detects radiation that is emitted by a radiotracer. A radiotracer consists of radioactive material that is tagged to a natural chemical, such as glucose.
I think the answer is Specialized cells!
