The two major surviving clades of diapsids include modern animals like snakes, lizards, crocodiles, and birds

A clade is a branch in a cladogram that has a single common ancestor with all of its offspring. An evolutionary tree that depicts the relationships between species' ancestors is called a cladogram. In the past, cladograms were created using similarities among species' phenotypic or physical characteristics.

All hominoids, including humans, chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans, and gibbons, are members of this group. The Hominoid clade is a subgroup of the Anthropoids, a broader clade that includes Old World and New World monkeys. The use of a phylogenetic tree makes clade identification simple. Just visualize pruning even one branch from the tree.

Answer:

macroevolution

Explanation:

Macroevolution is said to be the evolutionary changes that occur on a larger scale beyond a single species as a result of evolutionary forces such as mutation, gene flow, genetic drift. Macroevolution, unlike microevolution, usually results into the emergence of two new species with pronounced changes. The event as illustrated in the question is an example of macroevolution.

How much chemical energy (stored as biomass) is available to primary consumers from 10,000 kcal of primary productivity?

atroni [7]

The answer is “d” (1,000 kcal). As the trophic level increases energy is decreases by 10 times that of the previous level. If a system has 10,000 kcal, then the primary consumer have 10 times less (10,000/10) which is 1,000 kcal. The secondary consumers have 100 kcal and the tertiary have 10 kcal. Only 10% of the energy at each trophic level goes on to the next.

Why isn't exponential population of growth realistic ?

oee [108]

Because there will eventual reach a point where the food or some other necessity runs out and instead of growth continuing, it stays at relatively constant.

Genetic drift and natural selection can both be mechanisms of evolution. However, they are very different mechanisms.

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The key distinction is that in genetic drift allele frequencies change by chance, whereas in natural selection allele frequencies change by differential reproductive success
