During early cleavage stages in drosophila, nuclei divide through 13 cycles in the absence of any cytoplasmic cleavage. This division creates an embryo of many nuclei contained within one shared cytoplasm surrounded by one common plasma membrane, this process is called as-

If the malesʹ halteres have species-specific size, shape, color, and use in courtship displays, and if the speciesʹ ranges overlap, then the speciation events may have been driven, at least in part, by which of the following?

If the prokaryotic flagellum developed from assemblages of proteins that originally were not involved with cell motility but with some other function instead, then the modern prokaryotic flagellum is a(n)

#Unit 11. Evolution and Behavior

In certain motile prokaryotes, dozens of different proteins comprise the motor that powers the prokaryotic flagellum. The motor has a complicated structure, and its various proteins interact to carry out its function. Based on Darwinʹs explanation for the existence of human eyes, how would he probably have explained the existence of such motors?
