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.

what is the study of the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and other organisms? group of answer choices multiple chemical s

Rufina [12.5K]

Toxicology is the study of how chemicals can affect both people and other living things.

<h3>What is the importance of toxicology?</h3>

The scientific study of harmful effects caused by chemicals on living things is known as toxicology. It entails keeping track of and documenting symptoms that appear after exposure to harmful chemicals. Typically, toxicity only occurs when a chemical that may be harmful reaches sensitive tissues, such the reproductive organs, in excess of a predetermined amount.

The processes by which these compounds cause toxicity will be investigated by toxicologists, as well as the methods for identifying these substances in diverse sample types.
A further aspect of toxicology is determining the best ways to handle people or animals that have been exposed to specific poisons.
Environmental toxins, naturally occurring chemicals, pharmaceutical compounds created for human use in medicine, and other substances are all evaluated by toxicologists.

All of the following describe outcomes of urbanization except

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

O decreased soil pollution

Explanation:

Urbanization does not lead to decreased soil pollution.

Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into the environments. As urbanization progresses and the population of people in a place increases, soil pollution increases.

Also, industrial expansion causes increased production of wastes.
So, some of these wastes find their way into the environment of which the soil is a main component.
There is an increased amount of soil pollution.
