Explanation:
A slow, continuous process is defined as gradualism that occurs at slow rate but at a steady pace.
For example, stripes of a tiger develop slowly and at a steady pace so that they can hide in tall grass represents gradualism.
Whereas punctuated equilibrium is a process in which there is sudden and frequent changes that results in the formation of new species.
For example, species living in a sea for thousand of years breed and die over there and suddenly when there is change in sea level than animals must adapt represents punctuated equilibrium.
The answer is A
Mitosis creates two identical daughter cells that each contain the same number of chromosomes as their parent cell. In contrast, meiosis gives rise to four unique daughter cells, each of which has half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Ligaments connect one bone to another bone. Therefore, they allow a joint to form, because joints are where two or more bones connect.
Take your knee joint for instance (***see attached pic***). The knee joint is formed by the connection of the femur (your thigh bone), the tibia (your shin bone), and the fibula (the other long bone in your lower leg). In order for all of these bones to connect there are many ligaments in the knee joint that keep the bones connected and in place. A well known example of one of these ligaments in the knee joint is the ACL (anterior crucate ligament), which is commonly torn in sports, namely football. Most people have heard of this ligament because it receives a lot of media attention since tearing it can greatly alter or even end professional athletes' careers.
Explanation:
species is a group of animals, plants or other living things that all share common characteristics and that are all classified as alike in some manner.
