I am not sure about every species. But recently I was looking at our family tree, and we have detailed records dating back to the 1840's. Basically there are distinct lines within family branches where the whole direct line of the descendants died at paticular ages, within a 5 to 7 year window. This was interesting as I am trained in naturopathic medicine. I was taught, and have believed for years, lifestyle choice is what determines health and wellbeing. But by what I see looking at the paper evidence of our family lines this is not necessarily true. Family lines either died in their mid 60's or mid to late 80's. This is true of what we see in our family today. Despite good or bad food or lifestyle choices members of our family are still dying according to their genetically inherited predisposition. Including a grandfather of mine who smoked for more than 70 years and died at 91. Ask many researchers and they will quietly tell you genetic predisposition trumps lifestyle choices.

What has to happen genetically to form a new species?
For a new species to form, there must be a long string of mutations and developments based on some environmental need. Eventually enough changes will occur that the organisms that have made the change are no longer recognizable as their original species.
Do genetically grown crops take longer to grow than naturally grown?
I assume you mean genetically modified, since anything that grows does so based on its genetic material. No, genetically modified crops do not take any longer to grow than their naturally-selected counterparts. When growing corn, for example, the farmer can choose from a fairly wide selection of maturity lengths, both in normal and in genetically modified.
When a system of classification is based on observation of a predetermined set of factors it is called a natural system an artificial system an objective system a subjective system?
an artificial system
What is the definition of the concept of a species in Eubacteria based on?
The grouping is based on structural and physiological similarities, on evolutionary relationships.
What makes physical characteristics an inadequate basis for grouping members of a species?
Convergent evolution, where similar structures evolve independantly in distanlty related organisms, or even variability within a species (group of organisms that are genetically similar enough to eachother to have fertile offspring) can make grouping based on physical characteristics problematic.

What is the lifespan of Nerve cells?
They are made when you are born...so there lifespan is based on how long you live.
How do you compute predetermined overhead rate as a percentage of direct labor costs and direct labor hours?
Predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor cost = Budgeted overhead cost / direct labor cost / 100 Predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor cost = budgeted overhead cost / direct labor hours.
Activity based accounting?
Activity based accounting is a process in which factory overhead cost is allocated to different departments based on activity performed by those departments rather based on any predetermined rate.
What is lifespan?
The life span of an individual is the projected length of time between the individual's birth and the moment its life functions cease (i.e., its death), an estimation based on recorded accounts of prior lifetimes of other members of the individual's species.
What is traditional approach income statement?
In traditional approach income statement, overheads are charged to product based on predetermined rate rather then based on actual activity.
What is the predetermined cost?
Predetermined rate is overhead rate allocated to product cost to find out the full product cost and it is an estimated rate based on total expected overhead on normal capacity divided by some machine hours or direct labor hours etc.
When genetically based traits are inherited independently from each other this is known as?
Mendal's law of independent assortment
How does activity based costing differ from traditional based costing?
Activity based costing has primary difference of allocation of overheads which are based on activities performed by any department while in traditional costing system overheads are allocated on predetermined rate which may be not very accurate.
What is absorption costing income statement?
Absorption costing income statement is that statement in which overheads are charged to units of products based on predetermined blanket rate.
Is coal gas renewable or nonrenewable?
A carbon based resource that is practically nonrenewable from a human lifespan pov.
Why activity based costing?
Activity based costing allocate the overhead expenses based on activities performed and that's why it is an accurate way to allocate overhead expenses while in absorption costing, overheads are allocated based on some ratios or predetermined rate which is not accurate method of allocation of cost.
