In the early 1700s Linnaeus came up with a new system of classification of living things that eventually replaced the one that h

ad been used since Aristotle developed it in ancient Greece about 2000 years earlier. Why was a change necessary?
A new system was needed to include the new species that had evolved since the original classification system was developed.

So many new species were being discovered, it was impossible to arrange them all in a hierarchy based on relative complexity of species.

The discovery of numerous new species made it unfeasible to organize them all according to a hierarchy that reflected their complexity.

The correct response to the question above is that a significant number of new species were being identified, making it unfeasible to classify them all in a hierarchy based on their complexities. The development of classification systems began with Aristotle around 360 B.C., where he categorized organisms into two main groups: plants and animals. Following Aristotle, Theophrastus and others attempted various classifications, but it was Carolus Linnaeus in 1735 who devised a classical system that categorized organisms similarly into plants and animals. Over the span of 2000 years from Aristotle to Linnaeus, significant changes in classification occurred, prompted by advancements in science and the introduction of new species that needed to be integrated into the system. This necessity fostered the development of a novel approach to classifying organisms.

Un jardinero cruzó dos plantas de flores rosadas, con la esperanza de obtener plantas con flores del mismo color. Su sorpresa fu
s2008m [2378]

Response:

Este es un ejemplo de dominancia incompleta. Se trata de un fenómeno genético que se manifiesta cuando un gen dominante no logra expresar su totalidad en el alelo recesivo en un alelo heterocigoto dominante.

Por ende, ambos rasgos se muestran, dando lugar a una fusión de los dos alelos para los colores (blanco y rojo). El alelo rojo dominante muestra dominio parcial sobre el alelo blanco recesivo, produciendo así el alelo completamente rosado.

Según la ley mendeliana, las dos flores rojas son heterocigóticas. Por lo tanto, las flores rojas dominantes heterocigóticas deben ser R. El alelo blanco es recesivo (rr) y es enmascarado por el R rojo,

Sin embargo, al cruzar los dos alelos heterocigotos rojos:

Los fenotipos derivan en forma de

RR, (1) rojo Rr Rr (2) rosa rr (1) Blanco.

Esto ocurre porque el alelo rojo dominante no era total / completamente dominante sobre el alelo recesivo blanco en ninguno de los casos, resultando en un alelo rosa (el tercer fenotipo)

If you have a cotton shirt, what kind of glyosidic bond is most important for the integrity of your shirt?
11111nata11111 [2571]

Answer: starch

Explanation:

Starch, a carbohydrate, is produced by plants and is primarily found in seeds and tubers.

Starch is also used to treat cotton shirts, as it forms glycosidic bonds which contribute to the fabric's quality.

This compound consists of amylose and 70%–90% amylopectin. Amylose, a polysaccharide, comprises D-glucose monomers linked by the α-1,4-glycosidic bond, forming a helical structure with six glucose units per full turn.

Amylopectin, another polysaccharide, features glucose molecules primarily linked through α-1,4-glycosidic bonds, with occasional branching due to α-1,6-glycosidic connections. Each amylopectin molecule can have many thousands of glucose segments, with branches occurring roughly every 25 to 30 units.
