Answer:
Study of comparative anatomy emerged in the 18th century and led to establishment of relationship between species based on the common traits
Explanation:
The three major events that occurred after this discovery are –
a) Discovery of the fact that the age of earth is much higher than the age of earth as found in previous theories of continental drift theory
b) The age of the oldest fossils was determined and based on that relative age of all species (as found in fossils) was determined.
c) The determination of age of fossil helped to find the gaps in the evolutionary tree and hence provoked search of these missing species.
The study of comparative anatomy started somewhere around 1800 when George Cuvier emerged as father of comparative anatomy
Based on comparative anatomy study, scientists such as Buffon and Lamarck worked on establishing relationship between species based on the common traits shared between them
Answer:
Decomposers
Explanation:
The diagram in this question illustrates a food web, which is a series of interlinked food chains in an ecosystem. In a food chain as depicted in the image, the arrows point to the organism that feeds on another organism. For example, an arrow is pointing from Idaho fescue to an Elk meaning that the elk will feed on that plant.
Different trophic levels constituting organisms exists in the food web including; producers (plants), primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers etc. However, as observed in the image, a general arrow carrying along all the organism is pointing towards the organism in the question mark. This organism is called DECOMPOSER.
A decomposer, usually a microorganism, is an organism that breaks down dead organisms and returns the nutrient to the soil for recycling. All organisms in the food web will eventually die and when they do, they'll be decomposed by a decomposer. This is why the arrow pointing towards the decomposers include all organisms.
Biomechanical mechanisms, habitat for plants and animals, participates in cycling of all materials used by living things.
Answer:
They would freeze and it would be hard to find food because they are not accustomed to the different climate. They would also be easy prey because of the environment change they are not equipped for.
The Rules of Protein Structure. The function of a protein is determined by its shape. The shape of a protein is determined by its primary structure (sequence of amino acids). The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the gene (DNA) encoding it.
