Given what we know, we can confirm that the two organisms most closely related would be the human and the gorilla.

<h3>Why are the Gorilla and Human the most closely related?</h3>

Using only the information given from the diagram, we can say that gorillas and humans are the most closely related. Although the turtle and the chicken also share the same genetic similarities in the diagram, the human and the gorilla also share physical aspects between them, making them more related than the previous group.

Therefore, given that they share genetic and physical aspects, we can confirm that the two organisms most closely related would be the human and the gorilla.

Which statement correctly describes a scientific theory?

Gemiola [76]

"B" It is based on repeated investigations. It can always be proven false. It might not be, and it is NOT equivalent to a scientific law. A scientific law is something that is true, and nothing could change it. It is a fact.

I hope this helps!

A woman has blood Type A, her baby has blood Type AB: Is it possible that a man who has the blood Type A could be the father? Sh

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

No, it is not possible

Explanation:

Humans use the ABO blood group system where the A and B alleles are dominant over allele O but codominant with one another.

This system is such that;

Type A can only have genotype: iAiA or iAi

Type B can only have genotype: iBiB or iBi

Type AB can only have genotype: iAiB

Type O can only have genotype: ii

According to this question, a woman has blood Type A (iAiA or iAi) and her baby has blood Type AB (iAiB). This means that the father definitely contributed the allele B in order to have a baby with type AB. It also means that, according to the question, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR A "Type A" father to produce that baby (see the punnet square attached).

Note: The father must contain an allele B in his genotype i.e. the father must be either type B (iBiB or iBi) or type AB (iAiB)

Explain three differences between apomictic and automictic parthenogenesis.

a_sh-v [17]

Apomictic refers to plants and it means the offspring is genetically identical to the parent. Automictic means that gametes fuse after meiosis - which means offspring are genetically not identical to parents.
