Q

What is other name for heterozygous ?

A

Hybrid

17
Q

What is the Codominance?

A

When a gene has two or more dominante allele

18
Q

Occurs when one allele is not completely dominant and the organism shows an intermediate traitor blend between the two homozygous case

A

Incomplete dominance

19
Q

From whom are inherited traits transmitted?

A

They are transmitted form parents

20
Q

Where do the differences among species finally reside?

A

In the genes

21
Q

What form each chromosomes?

A

is formed by genes

22
Q

What is form the genes?

A

for DNA

23
Q

What is te mean DNA?

A

Deoxyribonucleic acid

24
Q

What is the mean Biodiversity?

A

Is the variety of life in the world or in a particular habitat or ecosystem.

25
Q

Who propose the Theory of Evolution ?

A

Charle Darwin

26
Q

How a scientific theory can be confirmed?

A

By through observation and experimentation

27
Q

WHat propose Darwin?

A

Darwin´s hypotosis says that diversity of organism is the result of the evolution.

28
Q

What is the main mechanism of evolution?

A

The natural selection

29
Q

Allows the stronger organism to survive in a given enviroment

A

The natural selection

30
Q

________ provide some improved functions through the evolution of a trait

A

The Adaptations

31
Q

There are three evolution mechanisms?

A

1-Variation.
2-Natural Selection
3-Time

32
Q

What produce genetic variation?

A

The mutation and recombination

33
Q

What allow the natural selection?

A

-Allow the better-adapted organism to survive while other are eliminated.

34
Q

When overproduction of offspring occurs?

A

When they have too many babies

35
Q

What is the competition?

A

Is when several species may depend on the same resources.

36
Q

The environmental changes includes two aspects:

A

1.-One refers to changes, such as lack of food.
2.-The other is that these changes lead to evolutionary adaptations
