The correct answer is D. Abduction

Explanation:

In medicine, the movement of limbs or bones is classified into different types including abduction, adduction, extension, and circumduction. In this way, adduction occurs when the bone or limb moves towards the middle line of the body or center of it while abduction occurs if the movement makes the bone or limb be away from the center of the body. On the other hand, extension occurs when a movement makes the angle of body parts wider and circumduction occurs when the movement is circular. Considering this, the type of movement in which a bone moves away from the midline of the body is the abduction.

Advances in technology have enabled scientists and researchers to better study the evolutionary relationships between species. M

padilas [110]

Answer:

Embryology: the study of similarities in embryos of organisms to find common connections

Developmental biology: the study of life cycles of organisms to find common

Molecular biology: the analysis and comparison of DNA to better understand relationships between species

comparative anatomy: the study of the anatomy of an organism to explain evolutionary similarity

Explanation:

Embryology can be described as the branch of biology in which studies about the sex cells, the process of fertilization and the development of the fetus or embryo are made. The similarities between the embryos show evolutionary history among different organisms.

Developmental biology can be described as the branch of biology in which studies are made about the processes of growth and developmental procedures about organisms. Organisms belonging to different groups can also show developmental similarities if they have a common ancestor.

Molecular biology is the branch of biology which is related to the study of life on molecular level. At this level, similarities between the genome of organisms can be checked for evolutionary histories.

Comparative anatomy: It is the branch of biology in which organisms are studies based on the similarities and differences in their structures.
