True . A scientist is examining two fossilized skeletons of what he believes are extinct Whales. both have: tail bones, teeth, and front limbs. however, one has very small back legs the other has very long back legs. he is using the evolutionary species concept to identify them as two different species.

Whales not required to maintain the body mass in the water, the skeleton is light and basic. The fatty marrow in the spongy bones, which are coated in a thin coating of compact bone, formerly made up a third of the whale's oil production.The flippers in whale skeletons feature homologous bones (humerus, radius, ulna, and phalanges organised in digits) found in other animals, including humans, as shown in this Blainville's beaked whale (Mesoplodon densirostris). This dwarf sperm whale (Kogia sima) skeleton only displays the lower jaw's teeth and the structure of the pectoral fin (flipper).

Which of the following statements about archaea are true cowan?A) They are prokaryotes.B) They lack peptidoglycan in their cell
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

All the options are true except option D.

Explanation:

Archaea are a group of prokaryotic organisms i.e. they lack a membrane bound nucleus. They are one of the the three domains of life (the other two being bacteria and eukarya). Archeans possess a cell wall like bacteria but it is not composed of peptidoglycan, like bacteria cell wall.

Archeans are generally known to be found in very severe environmental conditions, hence, they are referred to as extremophiles e.g Some are thermoacidophiles i.e. thrive in very hot and acidic environment while others are extreme halophiles i.e. thrive in salty regions. Archeans known as methanogens produce methane gas as a product of metabolism from carbon dioxide and hydrogen.

However, the domain archeae was only found to be in existence recently after the domain bacteria, hence, they are not considered to evolve before the domain bacteria.
