Paul is studying a certain species of algae. The algae is unicellular, eukaryotic, and autotrophic. In the Linnaean system, the

species is classified in Kingdom Protista. Based on this information, what can Paul conclude about the classification of the species into clades?
A. The species is classified with other protists into Clade Protista.
B. The species is classified with other protists into Clade Animalia.
C. The species is classified in a clade that does not include all protists.
D. The species, like other protists, is not classified in any clade.

Answer: C. The species is classified in a clade that does not include all protists.

The Kingdom Protists involves organisms which are simple in structure and functions. Some of these organisms have characteristics common to both plants and animals. A clade represents a group of organisms that have all characteristics common to their ancestor. The example of algea given here, has characteristics which are found mainly in plants belongs to Kingdom Plantea. Therefore, the clade of these Protists can be related with those of plants but cannot be related to Protists which exhibit animal like characteristics.  

Therefore, species is classified in a clade that does not include all Protists.

Which idea associated with relative dating helped inspire Charles Darwin's work on evolution?
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer: The idea that the earth is extremely ancient.

Explanation:

Charles Darwin was a British naturalist who worked on the organic evolution of living organisms and in his books outlined how present-day organisms evolved from earlier, different species.

Evolution is an extremely slow process. It is difficult to obtain direct evidence of evolution in action. However, scientist including Charles Darwin, have from many fields gathered a great deal of indirect evidence that supports the theory of evolution. This evidence comes from many sources which include the FOSSIL RECORDS.

The history of life on earth is recorded in fossils (remains of organisms preserved mainly in earth's sedimentary rocks). Scientist can determine the age of rocks in which fossils occurs by using RELATIVE DATING. This method give a geological time scale, showing earth's age ( as measured by dating it's rocks), and tracing the history of life on it.

Therefore the idea that the earth is extremely ancient is associated with relative dating which has helped inspire Charles Darwin's work as an evidence on evolution.

PLEASE HELP! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST. What 2 factors affect organisms and their habitats, and give examples of each
Grace [21]

Answer:

There are two categories of these factors: abiotic and biotic. Abiotic factors are the non-living parts of the environment that can often have a major influence on living organisms. Abiotic factors include water, sunlight, oxygen, soil and temperature.

Explanation:

Biotic factors are interactions associated with living organisms. They can also influence the distribution of organisms in an ecosystem. grazing - too little leads to dominant plants outcompeting other species, too much reduces species numbers overall. Both decrease biodiversity.

Abiotic factors affect the ability of organisms to survive and reproduce. Abiotic limiting factors restrict the growth of populations. They help determine the types and numbers of organisms able to exist within an environment.
