Root of Horsetail #56
This is a the inside of the root where you would find the xylem and phloem.
Teeth Size #54
Teeth Size #54
Teeth size is an adaptation because the descendants had to adapt to different environments due to the food supply and availability of the environment. So the species would have to adapt and then reproduce with the genes required to survive in the environment which would lower the fitness of that species and increase another creating a variation in fitness and characteristics.
"Modern Biology" Pages 300-301
Chicken Humerus #53
Chicken Humerus #53
This bone is an adaptation because the bone has a similar bone structure with other species but as generations passed, different populations of descendents adapted to different environments. The bones that were inherited from ancestors may have become modified for different tasks.

Giraffes
#43
Giraffes becasue giraffes have varieties of neck lengths and the inheritance of acquired characteristics is where individuals could acquire traits during their lifetimes as a result of expirences or behavior, then could pass on those traits to offsprings. The scientist who proposed that theory was Jean Baptiste Lamarck.

The common name for pine trees is conifers. The specific epithet is called Coniferophyta.
"Modern Biology" Page 564

Pink Flower #'s 23, 35, & 46
Pink Flower
#23
The male part is called the stamen which are the long yellow strands in the middle of the flower.
The female part is called the pistil with is the green bulb looking thing in the very center of the flower.
"Modern Biology" Page 617
#35
The ovary is the structure that is in the very center of the pisil. The enlarged base of the pistil is the ovary which is where the eggs in the flower are produced.
"Modern Biology" Page 614
#46
The stigma of the pistil, which is the very top of the pistil, has at least 7 traits on seperate chromosomes. The seven independent traits were important because by knowing the seperate traits then Mendel could use his knowledge of statistics to analyze his observations to better understand the seven traits and he could see which traits would affect reproduction in the flowers and which ones wouldn't by controlling the pollination of the plants.

#11
A fern carries out aerobic respiration because autotrophs and hetertrophs use cellular respiration, which aerobic respiration is a part of, to make carbon dioxide and water from organic compounds and oxygen. Aerobic respiration has two stages, the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis. The products of the Krebs cycle are CO2, NADH, FADH2, and ATP. The products of the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis are H2O, FAD, NAD+, and ATP.
