Calorie (with a lowercase “c”) is the energy needed to increase the temperature of water by one degree Celsius.
Calorie (uppercase “c”) is the equivalent to a kilocalorie (or 1000 calories)
Answer:
Homologies - phenotypic and genetic similarities due to shared ancestry
Analogies (homoplastic) - similarities between two species due to convergent evolution instead of descent from a common ancestor with the same trait
In general, organisms that share very similar morphologies or similar DNA sequences are likely to be more closely related than organisms with vastly different structures or sequences. In some cases, however, the morphological divergence between related species can be great and their genetic divergence small (or vice versa).
(plants very different, bc diverged 50 mil years ago)
If internal anatomy, physiology, and reproductive systems are very dissimilar, probably analogous.
The more elements that are similar in two complex structures, the more likely it is that the structures evolved from a common ancestor. If genes in two organisms share many portions of their nucleotide sequences, it is likely that the genes are homologous.:
Explanation:
Water provides a safety net for mosquitoes to move into developmental periods and grow. In the egg stage, the female lays roughly 300 eggs that float atop the water's surface. This is why it is so important to eliminate any standing water around your property.

Explanation:
A nursery bed can be defined as a specially prepared temporary plot of land or garden which serves as a home for raising seedlings (young plants) prior to planting them in the main location (area). Thus, when older trees in the environment or surrounding dies or are cut-off, these younger plants (trees) propagated in the nursery bed are transferred to replace them.
<em>Some of the criteria or requirements for setting up a nursery bed are;</em>
1. Shed: this is one structure essential in propagating young trees.
2. Location/Site: a place near a source of water should be chosen because water is essential for plant growth and coolness from extreme heat caused by the sun.
3. Storage place for tools and equipment: it is important to have a complete set of tools or their substitute to be able to carry out all nursery activities properly.
4. Boxes, pots, and plots for germinating seeds: there are three places to germinate seeds, young plants, and young trees. Pots are used for germinating young trees while boxes and plots are used for raising seedlings.
5. Soil type: different plants need different types of soil. These includes clay, loamy and sandy soil.
