Why are common names not always useful to biologists?

Biology
2 answers:
RUDIKE [14]3 years ago

Answer:  Option 'D' is correct.

Explanation:

Common names are not always useful to biologists because they can apply to more than one animal.

Like common name does not tell about the family of species.

For eg : House cat and lion are common names given to them but using scientific names we came to know that they belongs to same family "Felidae".

And calf is common name apply to baby of cow or bull.

But it does not clarify the actual name of whose baby it is.

Hence, Option 'D' is correct.

Which statement correctly compares the thickness of earths layers
Gwar [14]

The statement that correctly compares the thickness of layers of Earth is that Earth’s lithosphere is thinner than its asthenosphere.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The thickness of the asthenosphere is nearly 660 kilo metres and that of lithosphere thickness is nearly 100 kilo metres. therefore it is very clearly evident that the lithosphere is thinner that asthenosphere.

Not only that, lithosphere is nearly 6 times thinner than that of thickness of asthenosphere. The oceanic crust of Earth is thinner than mantle of the Earth. The outer core of the Earth is thinner than the mantle and the lithosphere is thicker than continental crust of the Earth.
