The correct answer is B. A bony skeleton

Explanation:

In biology, Chondrichthyes are mainly marine jawed fishes that have cartilage skeletons rather than bone skeletons and also they have paired fins, this includes animals such as rays and sharks. In terms of origin, it is believed this type of fishes are mainly linked to placoderms that were a type of primitive fish that lived during the Devonian period that had a body skeleton as they were covered by hard structures called plates made of bone. Because of this, it is believed this structures evolved into less rigid ones made of cartilage although both the primitive fish and modern Chondrictyles share features such as the structure of jaws. Therefore, Chondrictyles descended from fishes that had a bony skeleton.

To what extent can very large earthquakes be predicted
Bas_tet [7]

Scientists have tried lots of different ways of predicting earthquakes, but none have been successful. They<span> haven't been able to find a signal for earthquakes( there is no obvious sign to say that an earthquake is coming very soon).</span> They do have a pretty good idea of where an earthquake is most likely to hit, but they still can't predict exactly when it will happen.

However, the probability of a future earthquake can be calculated, based on scientific data. Scientists estimate that the probability of a major earthquake occurring in the San Francisco Bay area over the next 30 years is 67%.

Before mitosis begins, what happens during S-phase?
Blababa [14]
A
Before meiosis begins, during S phase of the cell cycle, the DNA of each chromosome is replicated so that it consists of two identical sister chromatids, which remain held together through sister chromatid cohesion. This S-phase can be referred to as "premeiotic S-phase" or "meiotic S-phase".
