Answer:
Transitional fossils show how a particular taxa accumulated adaptations to fit particular environments and/or ecological niches
Explanation:
Transitional fossils are fossilized remains of taxonomic groups/species that illustrate an evolutionary transition between a known version of a taxa/species and the current taxa/species. Transitional fossils are fundamental because they can be clearly differentiated from the ancestral group as well as of its derived descendant group. For example, there exist transitional fossils known as "mammal-like reptiles"(i.e., therapsids that gave rise to the true mammals), which are clearly different from current mammals.
Calico cats are predominantly female because they’re colouring is related to the X chromosome.
- Two X chromosomes are needed for a cat to have that distinctive tri-colour coat.
- If a cat has an XX pair, she will be female.
- Male cats have an XY chromosome pair, so they can’t be Calicos.
Have a great day <3 (I love cats)
The Paleozoic Era ended with the largest extinction event in the history of Earth, the Permian–Triassic extinction event. The effects of this catastrophe were so devastating that it took life on land 30 million years into the Mesozoic Era to recover
Answer:
A. spiral galaxies are not pinwheel-shaped
Explanation:
There are three types of galaxies that include spiral galaxy, elliptical galaxy and irregular galaxy.
Elliptical galaxies are round shaped as well as elongated. Elliptical galaxies have both old and new stars but mostly it contains old stars.
Spiral galaxies are pinwheel-shaped due to the regular spinning motion of dust, stars and gas around the galactic center, at speeds of hundreds of kilometers per second which allows the matter to take a pinwheel-shape. Spiral galaxies are made up of lot of gas and dust and forms many new stars which allows the spiral galaxy to shine bright.
Irregular galaxies do not have any definite shape because of the gravitational influence of close galaxies. They also have many new stars.
Hence, the error is foudn in first sentence, where it says that spiral galaxies are not pinwheel shaped. so teh correct option is A.
