All animals share a common ancestor.
Explanation:
According to various phylogenetic gene sequence analysis, there are various evidences that proved all animals originated from a common ancestor.
Initially, it was stated that all organisms descended from a single cell which then gave rise to multicellular organisms. Organisms that descend from a common ancestor are closely related and grouped.
The lineage of the common ancestor can be traced in the neoproterozoic era.
The last common ancestor or the basal animal was sea sponge according to some researchers. The last universal common ancestor is called as the concestor.
Answer:
become extinct over time......
Adenosine triphosphate or ATP is a compound that stores and provides the energy required to perform a variety of biochemical processes in living beings.
After being consumed, it losses one or two of its phosphates and becomes adenosine diphosphate (ADP) or adenosine monophosphate (AMP).
It can also act as a coenzyme and be a precursor to DNA and ARN because it is a nucleic acid.
Each molecule of ATP is a nucleoside triphosphate, formed by an adenine (a nitrogenous base), a ribose (a sugar), and triphosphate.
This means the correct answer is A) nucleic acid
Snapper overfishing
Explanation:
Coral reefs are becoming highly vulnerable due to increased anthropological exploitation of the ocean reserves. Overfishing, usage of non-selective fishing gears, fishing the spawning areas, fishing using nets etc all affect the coral reefs and the marine ecosystem. The coral reefs and the fish population are interdependent and overfishing greatly impacts both the factors.
Overfishing is the main reason for damage and decline in coral reefs. The snappers are carnivores and survive on eating other fishes which can be herbivores or omnivores. Snappers remain at the top of the food pyramid of the marine ecosystem. A reduction at the top level of the food pyramid will automatically disturb the lower level population and the energy flow between each cycle. A reduction in carnivores leads to increase in herbivores which in turn deplete the coral reefs. Coral reef is a habitat for many fish populations, and a reduction in the habitat will again reduce the overall population of fishes. A decrease in predator population will increase prey population.
Answer:
We (humans) remove nutrients from the land and discharge them into aquatic environments. On one hand, this leads to soil depletion on the land, and on the other hand, an over abundance of the nutrients and pollution of water sources.
