Answer:
sister taxa
Explanation:
Groups departing from the same evolutionary node are called sister taxa and are evolutionarily closer to each other than groups departing from another node. Thus, we can say that the sister taxa are evolutionarily closer (related) to each other than to the taxa that did not diverge from the same place. Similarly we can say that taxa that did not diverge from the same place, cannot be called sister taxa and are distant evolutionary.
Answer: option B) Sympatric speciation is best described as a random event that disrupts the allele frequencies in a population
Explanation:
Sympatric speciation is an event/situation whereby organisms of the same species:
- live in the same territory or nearby territories ( i.e do not live in geographical isolation)
- DO NOT interbreed, but select a sexual mate from a much diverse territory to yield new species or offsprings.
This sexual selection then results in generations of offsprings that are genetically different from the rest of the same species due to uneven gene flow or disruption of alleles among the population of same species.
Thus, only option B is true.
Answer:
The statement that is correct is that all cells have the same genes, but different genes are active in different cells.
Explanation:
Differentiation or specialization is a function that cells possess and is what allows them to have different types of cells and tissues.
Cell differentiation depends on genetic regulation, a mechanism that determines the specific genes that are expressed in a cell or tissue type.
All cells contain the same DNA, which is organized into chromosomes and contain the genes that determine specific characteristics. <u>There is cell differentiation because some genes can be expressed and others are suppressed, all due to genetic regulation</u>.
The other choices are wrong because:
- <em>The eyes look different from the liver, because they have the same genes, but only some are expressed.
</em>
- <em>Differentiated cells and tissues do not lose their genes.
</em>
- <em>All cells have DNA.</em>
He was looking through a microscope at particles trapped in cavities inside pollen grains in water. The concept of Brownian motion is named after him. This is the random motion of particles suspended in a fluid, liquid or gas resulting from their collision with the fast-moving molecules. Here, the patterns of motion of the particles are typically alternations between random fluctuations in a particle's position inside a fluid sub-domain with a relocation to another sub-domain. Each relocation is followed by more fluctuations within the new closed volume.
