<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.

Stells [14]

A person does have basic human rights and one is the freedom of expression. Though this is the case, we should understand that our right to freely express ourselves (from political to religious views), it does not necessarily give us the right to impede another person’s. A play with words can easily hurt or even harass other people, and in return may be a form of human right violation.

Natalija [7]
I don’t think we would have the same countries. i feel like everything would be connected, like maybe a few really big countries instead of hundreds of different countries. i feel we would look different that how we already look because there would be more of different type of people around each other, resulting in mixed race reproducing.

How do these materials provide the plant with energy
Papessa [141]
Photosynthesis is a natural process by which trees and plants use energy from the sun and carbon dioxide from the air to make the food they need to live and grow. At the same time, the leaves or needles absorb carbon dioxide from the air. These raw materials flow to plant cells containing chlorophyll.
