Answer:
Homology is a study of similar characters found in two species because of common ancestry.
Explanation:
1.Morphological homology: Species placed under same taxonomic category exhibit similar anatomical structures.
2.Ontogenetic homology: Species belongs to same taxonomic category embryological similarities
3.Molecular homology: Species show molecular similarities such as DNA,RNA and protein
An example of homology is seen in the skeletal strycture of vertebrates. That is arm of a human,leg of a cat,fin of a whale and wing of a bat.
DNA (or deoxyribonucleic acid) is the molecule that carries the genetic information in all cellular forms of life and some viruses. Source-

Answer:
The effect that a situation like this:
Imagine a scenario where a disease has infected many species of grass in the savanna.
Would have in is A disbalance in the ecosystem because the infected plants would die and they won't be able to feed the animals that eat them and they would have to migrate to look for plants to eat. That would also lead to predators that eat the animals that feed on plants to follow them and both types of animals would be reduced in the trip.
Explanation:
To understand this answer we need to analyze the full context. First of all the plants are used as food by the herbivores, therefore they would see themselves in the need to look for healthy plants that could be used as food. Predators would follow them and this trip will reduce the number of both because they would require energy and food to keep traveling. The herbivores would take the worse part because they are bigger in number and their food would scarce, while they would be used as easy food for the carnivores.
A. arteries and veins.
Just as tubes within the stems and leaves of plants transport water, arteries and veins within animals transport blood with the required nutrients for our bodies.
