What else can I help you with?
What do you call an organ that serves no useful function in an organism?
A vestigial is an organ that serves no useful function in an organism.
What is the role of secondary protein structures in determining the overall function of a protein?
Secondary protein structures, such as alpha helices and beta sheets, play a crucial role in determining the overall function of a protein. These structures help proteins fold into specific shapes, which are essential for their function. The arrangement of these structures can affect how proteins interact with other molecules and carry out their biological roles.
What is the term for structure that has no use in an organism?
Vestigial StructureA vestigial structure is a structure that appears to no longer have a use in the body.
Anatomical structures that appear to be derived from a functional structure in an ancestor but that currently do not serve an important function are called?
Vestigial structures. These are remnants of organs or body parts that have lost their original function through evolution. Examples include the human appendix and wisdom teeth.
What term describes parts of organisms that have a similar function but not a similar structure?
Analogous structures are body parts that have a similar function in different species but have evolved separately, thus not sharing a common ancestor. These structures result from convergent evolution, where organisms adapt to similar environmental pressures.
What is the study of the each structures function?
The study of how structures function is called physiology.
How do vestigial structures work?
They don't, vestigial structures are biological structures with no known function that evolved from structures in distant ancestors that used to have a function that is no longer needed.
What are structures that have the same function but different structures called?
Analogous structures are structures that have the same function but different structures. They have evolved independently in different organisms to perform similar roles in response to similar environmental pressures. An example is the wings of birds and bats, which have different structures but both serve the same function of flight.
Structures found in protoplasm to help cells function?
The cell structures is found in protoplasm. It is what helps the cells function.
Structures with a hemolytic function is the?
Spleen
What is the function of the structures labeled a?
It seems I don't have the visual context to identify the structures labeled "a." However, if you provide a description or context around the structures, I would be happy to help explain their function.
How do the structures in an organsim relate to its function?
the people
Cell structures that function in cell division are?
centrioles
Structure with different origin but same function?
An example of structures with different origin but same function is the wings of a bird and the wings of a butterfly. These structures have evolved independently in birds and insects to serve the same function of flying, but they have different origins in terms of their underlying anatomical structures and developmental pathways.
What do you call an organ that serves no useful function in an organism?
A vestigial is an organ that serves no useful function in an organism.
Are birds feet and reptiles feet a homologous structures?
Yes. They have similar structures but not necscarily the same function
