<u>Transition fossils show</u><u> the presence of leglike structures, pointing to the possibility that the ancestors of </u><u>whale</u><u> and dolphins once lived on land.</u>

  • The cetaceans, which include whales, dolphins, and porpoises, are descended from land-dwelling mammals.
  • Traces of their terrestrial ancestry can still be seen in the bones of their fins, which resemble enormous, jointed hands, in their vertical spine movement, and in the fact that they must breathe air from the surface.

What is evidence that whales evolved from land mammals?

  • There are several indications from a whale's anatomy and biology indicating they originated on land.
  • They have paddle-shaped flippers that house hand bones with five "fingers," breathe air, and nurse their young with their own milk.
  • Whales have tiny back limbs as embryos, but these vanish before birth.

timurjin [86]

Sister chromatids have different alleles although carry same genes on same loci. So if it doesn't happen so, like if there are same alleles on sister chromatids then there is a problem in its formation. i.e., male and female alleles haven't contributed equally ( may be an error during their segregation process ). And obviously it doesn't happen in a real cell so we must understand this point. Because normally whenever it happens there's one half from the male and one half  from the female. (i.e. maternal and paternal alleles contribute equally).

I hope you get the answer!!!
