The following options are attached to the question above:

A. When a new trait evolves

B. When an ancestor becomes extinct

C. When it is discovered

D. When it becomes large enough


ANSWER

The correct option is A.

A cladiogram refers to diagram that is used to show the relationships among organisms. The diagram make use of lines, which branch off in different directions and which end up at a clade. A clade refers to a group of living organisms that share a last common ancestor. The diagram is used by biologists to visualize group of organisms that are been compared in order to determine their relatedness and their most common ancestors. In cladiogram, a group of organism branch off when a new trait emerge.

The effect of cell size on material transport
4vir4ik [10]
The greater the surface area of a cell, the faster the cell can transport materials across its membrane because there is more area to absorb/excrete materials. We also want the surface area much higher than the volume of a cell. the more volume a cell has the slower the transport of diffusion will be. If the cell is smaller because it has a higher surface area than it does volume. Because of this larger SA:V ratio, smaller cells will transport materials faster.
