Sharks, whales, and dolphins share similar features such as body shape and the position of fins. However, sharks have gills for

breathing. while whales and dolphins have lungs. These differences indicate that the organisms share a common ancestor for Whales also possess a vestigial pelvic bone. The presence of the pelvis bone may indicate that whales

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

When egg white is heated, it hardens and is opaque. This cooking process cannot be reversed, but hard-boiled egg white can be di
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Generally proteins are denatured at high temperature.Therefore when  the egg is hard boiled they are denatured since eggs are protein,  the 3-dimensional  structure of protein is lost, and it is replaces with tangled meshwork of polypeptide chains .This is because the  orderly arrangements of  disulphide bonds in proteins  are disrupted , which  results in the formation of inter chains bonds among   disulphide bonds, making the protein molecules to link together.This explains the reason for the 3-D structure disruption  and formation of  a macro molecule.

However,   the  addition of reducing agent ,  breaks the covalent disulphide bonds.   While detergent breaks the interchain bonds among the disulphide bonds.  (The noncovalent bonds),These combined effects untangled the  mesh networks of polypeptides formed, and reduces the hardened nature,
