Both dolphins and whales still have their hip (pelvic) bones present. These bones connect and transfer the weight of the trunk to the lower limbs.

Thus, <em>the presence of the pelvic bone may indicate that whales had ancestors that walked on land</em>.

Answer:

Thus, the presence of the pelvic bone may indicate that whales had ancestors that walked on land.  

Explanation:

Evolutionism claims that whales have pelvic bones (hips) that are evolutionary remains from when their ancestors walked the earth more than 40 million years ago. The commonly accepted hypothesis considers that these bones are simply vestigial, regressing slowly over time. At the definition level, 'vestigial organs' originally referred to useless parts of the body that were left over from some evolutionary ancestor

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option C which is globular. And the correct statement is:

<u>Globular star cluster forms from tightly packed groups of older stars.</u>

<h3>Explanation to the answer:</h3>
  • In the galaxies, stars are clustered in different patterns making different types of groups in the galaxies which can be recognized.
  • There are one type of clusters which are spherical in shape and tightly packed due to gravity and they also move around the satellites. These clusters are known as globular star clusters.
  • Hence option C is correct one.

Which statement OR statements are true about groups on the periodic table?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer: A,C,D

Explanation:

Element in the same group shared similar chemical behaviour and resemble each other because of the same number of valency electron they have. Example group one element have a valence electron of one.

Because of the same Valency electron they react in a similar way.

Example Group 1 have one valence electron and therefore Ionize readily to form positive electron this occur when they donate their valence electron leading to the formation of electrovalent compounds this is applicable for all group one element. Hence,

Elements in the same group have similar properties and react the same

Also, because element in the same group share the same property in chemical behaviour they are said to belong to one family.

Element in the same group do not have the same energy level because their electron tends to increases down the group and therefore energy level increases and not constant for all elements.
