1 . What happens in the population if the mutation phenotype is helpful
2. Why does that happen for that population that has a helpful phenotype?
3. How does this mutation continue to exist in a population?
Answer:
1. The population will increase as they're better adapted to their environment and have a higher survival rate due to this helpful phenotype.
2. This happens to the population because this helpful phenotype might lead to less exposure to predation in which leads to a better survival fitness for the organism.
3. This mutation continues to exist as the organisms continue to successfully reproduce into the population due to being able to survive for longer.

what do we call the flight in bees whereby mating occurs and drones are killed after mating the queen?
Answer:
The next male honey bee to mate with the queen will remove the previous endophallus and eventually lose his own after ejaculation. Male honey bees are only able to mate seven to 10 times during a mating flight, and after mating, a drone dies quickly, as his abdomen rips open when his endophallus is removed

In seedcracker finches on a remote island, birds are found with varying bill sizes. Those with larger bills (on average) specialize in cracking hard, thick-walled seeds. Birds with smaller bills (on average) feed on seeds with softer seed coats. If ongoing climate change results in the most of the seeds in the area becoming thich-walled, predict the outcome on the population of seedcracker finches. Select ALL that apply
Answer:answer is b and d
Explanation:
Birds with larger bills (on average) specialize in cracking hard, thick-walled seeds and Birds with smaller bills (on average) feed on seeds with softer seed coats, but if climate change results in most of the seeds in the area becoming thick-walled, then only birds with larger bills will survive.
What is the natural selection in the case of finches?Natural selection selects the best and fittest individuals so that the population or species can grow further, as in this case, where both types of finches are present, but due to climate change, only the seeds with thick walls survived, and the birds that can eat these will survive, while the rest will be removed from the environment.
Hence, birds with larger bills (on average) specialize in cracking hard, thick-walled seeds and Birds with smaller bills (on average) feed on seeds with softer seed coats, but if climate change results in most of the seeds in the area becoming thick-walled, then only birds with larger bills will survive.

1. How many layers are there in an arthropod's exoskeleton? What is the main function of
each layer?
Explanation:
The exoskeleton and molting
The success of arthropods derives in large part from the evolution of their unique, nonliving, organic, jointed exoskeleton (see figure), which not only functions in support but also provides protection and, with the muscle system, contributes to efficient locomotion. The exoskeleton is composed of a thin, outer protein layer, the epicuticle, and a thick, inner, chitin–protein layer, the procuticle. In most terrestrial arthropods, such as insects and spiders, the epicuticle contains waxes that aid in reducing evaporative water loss. The procuticle consists of an outer exocuticle and an inner endocuticle. In the exocuticle there is cross-bonding of the chitin–protein chains (tanning), which provides additional strength to the skeletal material. The hardness of various parts of the exoskeleton in different arthropods is related to the thickness and degree of tanning of the exocuticle. In crustaceans, additional rigidity is achieved by having the exoskeleton impregnated with varying amounts of calcium carbonate.

The formation of an exoskeleton required the simultaneous solution of two functional problems in the evolution of arthropods: If the animal is encased in a rigid covering, how can it grow and how can it move? The problem of growth is solved in arthropods by molting, or ecdysis, the periodic shedding of the old exoskeleton. The underlying cells release enzymes that digest the base of the old exoskeleton (much of the endocuticle) and then secrete a new exoskeleton beneath the old one. At the time of actual shedding, the old skeleton splits along specific lines characteristic of the group, and the animal pulls out of the old skeleton as from a suit of clothes. The old skeleton is usually abandoned but in some species is eaten. The new exoskeleton, which is soft and flexible, is then stretched by localized, elevated blood pressure augmented by the intake of water or air. Hardening occurs by stretching and especially by tanning within a number of hours of molting. In crustaceans, calcium carbonate is deposited into the new procuticle. (Soft-shell crabs are simply newly molted crabs.) Additional endocuticle may be added to the exoskeleton for some days or weeks following molting.

Molting is under hormonal control, and there is a long preparatory phase that precedes the process. The steroid hormone ecdysone, secreted by specific endocrine centres and circulated in the blood, is the direct initiator of molting. The actual timing of a molt, however, is regulated by other hormones and commonly by environmental factors. The interval between molts is called an instar. Because of the frequency of molts, instars are short early in life but grow longer with increasing age. Some arthropods, such as most spiders and insects, stop molting when they reach sexual maturity; others, like lobsters and crabs, molt throughout their lives. Most of the larger spiders of temperate regions, for example, molt about 10 times before reaching sexual maturity. As a result of molting, the length and volume of an arthropod display steplike increases over the life span, but internal tissue growth is continual as in other animals.
Loss of a limb is a common hazard in the life of many arthropods. Indeed, some arthropods, such as crabs, are capable of amputating an appendage if it is seized by a predator. The limb is then regenerated from a small, nipplelike rudiment formed at the site of the lost limb. The new limb develops beneath the old exoskeleton during the premolt period and then appears when the animal molts.

How does human consumption of limited resources impact the biosphere? 1 paragraph
Answer:
Human use of land has negative impacts. Human activities contribute to the erosion and pollution of beaches. ... More of the rainwater runs off leading to increased erosion and drier soil. Deforestation of land can also lead to desertification and a loss of biodiversity.The burning of fossil fuels and the growth of animal agriculture has led to large amounts of greenhouse gases (such as carbon dioxide and methane) in the atmosphere. Higher concentrations of greenhouse gases trap more heat in the biosphere and result in global warming. In turn, this drives climate change.Humans affect the quality, availability, and distribution of Earth's water through the modification of streams, lakes, and groundwater . ... The activities of humans have significantly altered the biosphere , changing or destroying natural habitats and causing the extinction of many living species.

The immune system has both specific and nonspecific defenses against viral infections. Which statement describes a nonspecific response of the immune system in fighting viral infections?
A. T cells are produced to search out and destroy the viruses.
B. Memory B cells are activated to rapidly respond to the viral infection.
C. Plasma cells quickly replicate and release antibodies that bind to the viruses.
D. Virus-infected cells produce interferons that lead to the inhibition of viral replication
Answer:
C
Explanation:
I just did this same question
Virus-infected cells produce interferons that lead to the inhibition of viral replication and act as a nonspecific response of the immune system in fighting viral infections. Therefore, the correct statement is option D.
What are interferons?The immune system has two types of responses to viral infections: specific and nonspecific. Interferons are signaling molecules produced by virus-infected cells to activate antiviral defenses, such as apoptosis in infected cells. This refers to the nonspecific response of the immune system in fighting viral infections
Interferons function by alerting the immune system about the presence of a viral infection. Interferons can also stimulate the production of other immune cells, such as natural killer cells and macrophages to eliminate the infected cells.
Interferons have been also used to treat viral infections, such as hepatitis B, and are the nonspecific defenses that act as a first line of defense against viral infections.
Therefore, interferons that lead to the inhibition of viral replication are the nonspecific response of the immune system in fighting viral infections.

In meiosis, 2 cells have been created at the end of telophase 1, halfway through the process. These cells are said to exist in a haploid state with a diploid number. Explain the statement. Support your answer clearly
Answer:
In some species, cells enter a brief interphase, or interkinesis, before entering meiosis II. Interkinesis lacks an S phase, so chromosomes are not duplicated. The two cells produced in meiosis I go through the events of meiosis II in synchrony. During meiosis II, the sister chromatids within the two daughter cells separate, forming four new haploid gametes. The mechanics of meiosis II is similar to mitosis, except that each dividing cell has only one set of homologous chromosomes. Therefore, each cell has half the number of sister chromatids to separate out as a diploid cell undergoing mitosis.
Prophase II
If the chromosomes decondensed in telophase I, they condense again. If nuclear envelopes were formed, they fragment into vesicles. The centrosomes that were duplicated during interkinesis move away from each other toward opposite poles, and new spindles are formed.
Prometaphase II
The nuclear envelopes are completely broken down, and the spindle is fully formed. Each sister chromatid forms an individual kinetochore that attaches to microtubules from opposite poles.
Metaphase II
The sister chromatids are maximally condensed and aligned at the equator of the cell.
Anaphase II
The sister chromatids are pulled apart by the kinetochore microtubules and move toward opposite poles. Non-kinetochore microtubules elongate the cell.

Figure 1. The process of chromosome alignment differs between meiosis I and meiosis II. In prometaphase I, microtubules attach to the fused kinetochores of homologous chromosomes, and the homologous chromosomes are arranged at the midpoint of the cell in metaphase I. In anaphase I, the homologous chromosomes are separated. In prometaphase II, microtubules attach to the kinetochores of sister chromatids, and the sister chromatids are arranged at the midpoint of the cells in metaphase II. In anaphase II, the sister chromatids are separated.
Telophase II and Cytokinesis
The chromosomes arrive at opposite poles and begin to decondense. Nuclear envelopes form around the chromosomes. Cytokinesis separates the two cells into four unique haploid cells. At this point, the newly formed nuclei are both haploid. The cells produced are genetically unique because of the random assortment of paternal and maternal homologs and because of the recombining of maternal and paternal segments of chromosomes (with their sets of genes) that occurs during crossover. The entire process of meiosis is outlined in Figure 2.

Figure 2. An animal cell with a diploid number of four (2n = 4) proceeds through the stages of meiosis to form four haploid daughter cells.

Explanation:
For this assignment, you will ask questions about the factors that have caused a rise in global
temperatures over the past century. Then, you will conduct research to answer your questions. You will
also graph provided information, analyze the graphs, and make conclusions based on the graphs. Finally,
you will write a paper describing the conclusions of your research and graphs.
Background Information
Global temperature change is a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the Earth's atmosphere.
Both human activity and natural processes have contributed to this temperature increase. Examples of
human activities include the burning of fossil fuels, cement production, and agricultural activity. Examples
of natural processes include changes in incoming solar radiation and volcanic activity.
Scientists present evidence for the rise in global temperature in the form of tables, graphs, maps, and
models. For example, scientists build climate models (computer simulations of climate systems) to
explore the causes and effects of global temperature change and to predict future trends. These models
predict that the Earth’s average surface temperature will rise as greenhouse gas concentrations continue
to rise. Based on these models, scientists predict that average surface temperatures could rise by
between 2°C and 6°C by the end of the 21st century.

Answer:
B. Decomposers
Explanation:
i hope this helps ;)
Decomposers,such as bacteria, breakdown dead organisms and release nutrients back into the soil.
Part C When a material is heated, the change in temperature depends on the kind of material and its mass. Different objects can absorb and release different amounts of energy when heated and cooled. This property is called heat capacity. How might scientists apply this property to design something useful in the real world? Give one or two examples.
Answer:
Not really sure about this question but what I think is,
So for example, metal..Metal has a very low specific heat capacity, but we use it pretty much in all our lifetime right? Things that have low heat capacity have very high capacity if that makes sense. Things like water and oil, they take more energy to get heat up or get hot. Its funny because its what makes our planet survivable. 70% of our planet is of course water and radiation (light and heat) from the sun strikes 70% of water. Meaning its not heating anything up so quickly. Hope this somewhat helps you out and gives you an idea on what the question is talking about :) Enjoy!
