Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

All these images are of homologous structure in different species. They are called homologous as their skeletal elements have similarity which indicates their connection to a common ancestor. They are structurally similar but look different and also have different function.  

These homologous structures depicts the changes that have occurred in the course of evolution of these organism in different geographic entities and under different circumstances  (even after coming from the same ancestors) due to which similar body organs have adapted themselves to a different function or they might have become function-less.  

For example - Tails in monkey, rats and mammals are structurally same organs but have different functions in different species. However, in case of humans tails have become function-less.  

Hence, option D is correct

It is the last choice because their similar bone structures suggest they once had a common ancestor, which is why they are all mammals.

A cell can only grow so large in size, because
sweet-ann [11.9K]
<span>A cell can only grow so large in size because its ability to exchange materials is affected by a growing surface-to-volume ratio. Nature designed cells to be small in size because of the network of membranes passing through it. If cells grow any bigger, membranes in it will not be able to pass through its different parts and perform their purpose.


A cell is a network composed of many organelles (e.g. mitochondria, nucleus), that communicate and work together to provide bodily functions. The cell is small so that communication between organelles will be faster and much easier. When cells are small they can be easily repaired when damaged and replicated when needed.</span>
