Which of the following statements about the "tree of life" is correct?     Before Carl Woese, all cellular life forms were classified into five kingdoms: Monera, Fungi, Plants, Animals, and Protists.     Using rRNA genes for phylogenetic reconstruction, Carl Woese uncovered a previously unrecognized group that was thought to be bacteria. Afterward, all cellular life forms were classified into three domains: Archaea, Bacteria, and Eucarya.     It is found that the relationship among Archaea, Bacteria, and Eucarya changes, depending on which gene was used for phylogenetic reconstruction.     All of the above
/tqżytbrxg Darwin's Bark Spider Claims Question: Why do traits for silk flexibility vary within this family of Darwin's bark spiders? Remember these are claims about why the trait for silk flexibility varies within the spider family. Claim 1: The offspring have mutations that affect their traits. Do we have enough evidence to support or eliminate any of the claims? WHY OR WHY Claim 2: The offspring's traits depend on which parent the offspring received more traits from. Claim 3: The offspring received different combinations of traits from their parents. NOT? Students, write your response! Pear Deck Interact
Use the hybrid selection model, OY = ky(1 - y)(a - by), to find the percent of the population that has the given characteristic. dt A research team is studying a population of snails to determine how quickly characteristic B will pass from one generation to the next. At the start of the study, 20% of the snails have characteristic B. After five generations, 81% of the population has characteristic B. Find the percent of the population that will have characteristic B after eight generations. (Assume a = 2 and b = 1. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.) %
