Scientists use several methods to determine the proximity between species. Two of those methods may be an anatomical comparison, by examining the skeleton structure of two species, and DNA composition comparison, by comparison of genes, or specific parts of the DNA, that allow establishing the relative distance between species.

Why do males typically have a higher basal metabolic rate compared to females?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Explanation:

BMR or basal metabolic rate can be define as the rate of expenditure of available energy when the body is in rest to keep the vital functions active such as breathing and circulation.

Males typically have higher BMR than females because they tend to have higher proportion of lean body mass as compared to females. The females as compared to males exhibit more amount of fat cells. The metabolism of fat cells is slow.

Normally, wild violets have yellow petals with dark brown markings end erect stems. Imagine you discover e plant with white peta
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

It is fascinating to observe two distinct characters presented by the same plant. The inheritance of this plant can be determined easily by crossing the pure violets exhibiting yellow petals with dark brown marking and erect stems with violets exhibiting no markings, white petals, and prostate stems.  

The F1 progeny will originate as a hybrid of the two characters. These F1 plants will then be crossed between themselves and the F2 progeny would be clearly evaluated. If the F2 plants come in the phenotypic ratio of 3: 1, then it would indicate the pleiotropic effect of the alleles found in a single locus. If any other combinations arise post crossing, it would indicate that the non-wild type phenotype is because of many distinct mutant genes.
