Anectar-eating bird has a slightly more curved beak than average for its species. this allows the bird to more easily access nectar from plants. during the bird’s lifetime, it loses a toe on its left foot due to an accident. it learns to compensate for this loss and is not greatly impacted. which of this bird’s traits could it potentially spread through the species’ future population? question 1 options: a. the slightly more curved beak because it is an acquired trait that would be beneficial to future offspring. b. the lack of a toe on the left foot because it is an acquired trait that would be beneficial to future offspring. c. the slightly more curved beak because it is a beneficial trait that is encoded in the bird’s genes. d. the lack of a toe on the left foot because it is a beneficial trait that is encoded into the bird’s genes.

you are certainly talking about this picture:

a: is the label of the white square, it is showing the  replication fork, formed by helicase (d) ==> so it is the site of dna separation and replication 

b: is a new dna brand that is following directly the replication fork, so it is continuous ==> built continuously from 5' to 3

c: dna polymerase cannot replicate dna on its own, it needs the of their proteins, and one of them plays the role of a clamp which fixes  the dna with the dna template and increases  the processivity of the enzyme. ==>   stops polymerase from falling off the  template.

d: is the enzyme responsible for forming the replication fork (helicase) ==> unwinds and separates dna into two strands

e: is the delayed strand, it is built  in the opposite sense of the helicase, so dna will be built in fragments ==> built  fragments from 5' to 3 joins

and finally f: is the enzyme that builds  the new dna strand (dna polymerase) ==>   adds nucleotides to make a new dna helix.

for  example, forests have higher evapotranspiration than other ecosystems,  such  as grasslands, because of their deeper roots and greater leaf area. thus forests have a net moistening effect on the atmosphere and become a moisture source for downwind ecosystems.
