What is the science of naming and classifying organisms based on structural comparisons and genetic evidence

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The correct answer is taxonomy,

Taxonomy is a branch of biology that aims to to sort living thing into categories. In its early years, taxonomy was solely based on structural comparisons, mostly the anatomical similarities and differences between the organisms. However, with the discovery of the physiological processes and the genetic structures of organisms, the previous taxonomic knowledge was revised and changed in the light of the new scientific finds. Nowadays, taxonomy is primarily based on genetic similarities between the organisms.

Answer 2
Answer: Taxonomy is the science of naming things.

N snails, the shell may either coil to the right or the left. coiling to the right is dominant. a homozygous recessive female snail is crossed with a homozygous dominant male snail. all of the offspring have shells that coil to the left. why do all of the offspring have left-coiled shells

Answers

So first off homozygous means that both alleles are the same
If coiling to the right is dominant and to the left is recessive let capital c (C) represent right coiling and let lower case c (c) represent left coiling.
The female who is homozygous recessive must have both recessive alleles
The male who is homozygous must have two dominant alleles
So the cross will be between a CC and a cc
So we set up a Punnett square

We take a look at all the combinations and arrange them


So we find that there is a 25% chance of the offspring having left coiling

The coiling direction of the snail shell is affected by the maternal genes. All the offspring have left-coiled shells, as the phenotype is determined by the mother's genotype. Thus, option C is correct.

What is maternal inheritance?

Maternal inheritance has been defined as the effect by which the genes are influenced by the mother's genotype and are a type of non-Mendelian inheritance.

The dextral and the sinistral coiling seen in the snails showing the maternal effect is influenced by the genotype of the mother and is not affected by the father's genotype.

The mother has the cc and the father has the CC genes that when crossed are shown in the image.

From the cross, it is evident that the genotype of the mother snail affects and influences the genotype of the offspring, and hence all the offspring's have the left coiling (sinistral).

Therefore, in option C, the genotype of the mother snail affects the coiling.

Your question is incomplete, but most probably your full question was,

All of the offspring have shells that coil to the left. Why do all of the offspring have left-coiled shells?

A. This trait follows a typical Mendelian pattern of inheritance.

B. Only the father's genotype determines the phenotype for shell coiling.

C. Only the mother's genotype determines the phenotype for shell coiling.

D. Shell-coiling is a sex-linked trait.

Which of the following examples of an ecological study involves the ecosystem level of organization?A. The effects of human activities on biogeochemical cycling
B. The effects of a disease on population size
C. The effects of an invasive plant species on bird nesting sites
D. The effects of competition on survival

Answers

the closest answer to being correct is A, because ecosystem involves biotic and abiotic. and since humans are biotic and the cycle is abiotic. it is on the ecosystem level! :D

Match the vocabulary term with its meaning. 1. civilization the study of humans 2. society a highly developed society 3. culture a document produced some time after the historical event 4. historical Method all the knowledge and values shared by a society 5. anthropology a document that was produced during the same time period as the historical event 6. primary Source collecting, classifying, analyzing, and interpreting data 7. secondary Source a group of people with common practices, activities, and interests

Answers

All the explanations are avaible in the attached file.

The matches are:

1. Society ==> a group of people with common practices, activities, and interests.

2. Civilization ==> a highly developed society.

3. Culture ==> all the knowledge and values...

4. Historical Method ==> Collecting, classifying, analyzing, and interpreting data

5. Anthropology ==> the study of humans.

6. Primary source ==> a document that was produced during the same time period as the historical event.

7. Secondary source ==> a document produced some time after the historical event.

Anthropology is the study of humans; Culture is all the knowledge and values shared by society; Society is a group of people with common practices, activities, and interests; Primary source is a document produced during the same time period as the historical event; Secondary Source is a document produced after the historical event; Civilization is a highly developed society; Historical Method is collecting, classifying, analyzing, and interpreting data
