iv) It doesn't contain any valve.

v) All arteries carry oxygenated blood except the pulmonary artery.

2)Vein ---

i) It is a blood vessel having a thin wall.

ii) It brings blood from different parts to the heart.

iii) It can't dilate or constrict under normal conditions.

iv) It contains valves that allow the blood to flow in one direction towards the heart.

v) All veins carry deoxygenated blood except the pulmonary vein.

3)Capillary ---

i) It is a very narrow blood vessel that has very thin walls.

ii) It forms a network throughout the body in all living cells connecting arteries to veins.

Giving 100 points for an answer AND explanation.
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

They evolved from entirely different ancestors, but both developed wings in response to similar ecological conditions.

Explanation:

Based on the info given, they possibly could have had the same ancestor, but even if that was true, the bat would have some type of resemblance other than wings. I think that due to environmental changes, natural selection allowed these organisms to fly so they can survive in that environment. Birds got feathers because they could have been in a cold ecosystem so they needed warmth for themselves and their young as well as stay away from predators, due to their small size they had no way to get away without wings. They didn't have legs for running so they developed wings. Bats may have been in a fine temperature, but the day caused problems due to hunting, so they developed wings to hunt at night and keep themselves in caves to hide from predators.

This is the best I could do, I hope this helped :)

How do mutations impact genetic variation?
Anna35 [415]
<span>The random changes a mutation causes to an organisms genetic code causes either 1. A different protein to be produced or 2. none at all Mutations can either have a positive, negative or neutral (the vast majority) effect on the organism. (many times whether they are harmful or helpful depends on the environment.) When a mutation makes an organism better able to survive that organism is more likely to survive and pass the mutated gene onto the next generation.</span>
