Which science is the study of living organism?
Biology is the science that overlooks the studies of the living organisms. Its the study of the life and of the organisms, and their structure, which are categorized into many different branches.
Hope I helped :D
The correct options are as follows:
1. D.
<span>A clade refers to a group of organisms that are made up of evolutionary descendants that originated from a common ancestor. A clade that will survive a series of catastrophic events must be one that is made up of distantly related and diverse species. This is because, those species will have different type of adaptability capacity and will be able to adapt in different ways to the catastrophic events. Due to the differences in their ability to adapt, some of the specie will survive the catastrophic events even if others are wipe out.
2. B.
The mass extinction of one specie usually creates space for another new specie to survive. The new specie that survive the old one may possess the ability to adapt to the event that wipe out the former set of living organisms and thus, the new specie will be able to occupy and reproduce in their new space. Mass extinction is said to occur when the whole population of living organism living in an ecosystem are wipe out as a result of unfavorable conditions.
3. B.
Convergent evolution refers to the independent evolution of similar features in species that arise from different lineages. The species involved usually evolve these traits as a result of having to adapt to similar environments. Convergent evolution usually result in evolution of analogous structures, that is, structures that have similar forms or functions but which are not present in the last common ancestors of the species.
4. C.
In evolution, gradualism refers to theory that states that evolution occurs slowly and gradually, thus, large changes in evolution are actually product of small changes that occur over a long period of time. The theory of gradualism was originally proposed by James Hutton in 1795.
5. C.
Mass extinction refers to the wiping out of a a large number of species within a very short time. Mass extinction can occur as a result of severe unfavorable conditions that all the species in an ecosystem can not adapt to. An instance of this is a drastic decrease in global temperature after several massive volcanic eruptions.</span>
Answer:
b. Active site
Explanation:
The active site of an enzyme, also called the active center, is the area of the enzyme to which the substrate binds, so that the reaction occurs.
Enzymes are proteins. Certain characteristics in its tertiary structure are those that determine the shape of the active site of the enzyme, and therefore delimit the substrates on which the enzyme can act. In other words, the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme also determines the structure of the active site, and gives specificity to the enzyme, which can only act on certain substrates: those capable of binding to its active site.
Many times, the active site has the shape of a cleft or a cavity in the structure of the enzyme. The active site is usually formed by side chains of specific residues, and it is for this reason that it often has a three-dimensional structure different from the rest of the enzyme. The structure and composition of the active center is configured so that only a certain substrate has sufficient affinity to bind to this area of the enzyme
The movement of food through the esophagus is called peristalsis.
<h3>What is the buccal cavity?</h3>
The mouth is what we generally call the buccal cavity. It is an opening that contains the teeth and the tongue. The tongue plays the important role of serving as the organ of taste while the teeth serves to marsh food. It is the white strong structure that occurs in the mouth that enables is to masticate our food. Also in the mouth we have the salivary gland which plays the role of secreting the saliva and we know that the saliva contains from enzymes that makes it possible for the digestion of food to commence at the moth. It the follows that the buccal cavity is made up of the teeth, tongue and salivary glands.
Food moves into the stomach via the esophagus. Thus movement is slow and is aided by the muscles that line the gastro intestinal tract. As such, movement of food through the esophagus is called peristalsis.
