You go on a trip to the Galapagos island to study the animals there for a paper you are writing on evolution, just like Darwin did. You spend 3 days taking notes on all the physical characteristics you can observe about the tortoises and then you spend 3 days observing the finches. What have you recorded? A. Inherited characteristics B. Environmental variation factors C. Phenotypes D. Genotypes

C. Phenotypes

Explanation:

Taking notes on all the physical characteristics observed about the tortoises and then observing the finches, I have observed the phenotypes.

Phenotypes are the observable characteristics of a species which are the result of genetic expression influenced by the environmental factors.

So, phenotypes will be recorded during the trip while taking notes on all the physical characteristics which can be directly related to genotype and environmental factors.

Hence, the correct option is "C. phenotypes".

1. efficient use of space

2. elimination of groundwater contamination

3. energy generation

4. lower carbon footprint

answers are:

lysogenic     viral dna merges with host cell dna

lysogenic     no symptoms

lytic               viral dna takes over

lysogenic     virus does not destroy host cell

lytic               virus destroys host cell

lytic               induces symptoms of viral infection

lysogenic       cell reproduces and spreads provirus
