Different forms of a given gene are known as "alleles". Alleles are essential for the formation of life and add to diversity both within and outside the organism itself in many ways.
Answer:
The glyptodon is found to be similar to the armadillo.
Explanation:
A piece of evidence that supports the theory of evolution is that the glyptodon is found to be similar to the armadillo. Glyptodons and armadillos have many things in common, expect that glyptodons are much larger (the size of a Volkswagen beetle!) than an armadillo. The change from the prehistoric glyptodon to our modern day armadillo helps support that there is evolution because they still have many things in common. They are genetically related.
it wasn't just the earthquake that did damage. the magnitude of the quake caused a tsunami to form which hit shore and caused the more catastrophic damage.
The warm ocean water is usually found near the top surface of the ocean. The sun makes the surface of the ocean warm and thus heat up its water. This heat is later mixed by the winds and sea waves from top to beneath the ocean surface. The temperature of the surface is usually warmer than the water at depths as it does not receive sun light. The average ocean temperature at the surface is 17 degree Celsius while at greater depth the temperature falls down to 0 to (-3) degree Celsius
