Answer:

The missing step on Connor's list is the medusae bud off the polyp after step 5.

Explanation:

Portuguese man-of-war (Physalia physalis) is a cnidary -which is considered very poisonous to other species, including humans- and is not properly a jellyfish, but rather a set of different organisms (hydroids) grouped into a colonial organism. However, its life cycle is like that of jellyfish.

The life cycle of a  Portuguese man-of-war is:

  • <em>Release of gametes in the water. </em>
  • <em>External fertilization </em>
  • <em>Formation of the planula, larva provided with cilia that swims freely .</em>
  • <em>Planula adheres to a surface to form the polyp or scifistoma. </em>
  • <em>The polyp can produce jellyfish larvae by gemmation (not fragmentation) in the oral pole of this polyp, the strobilus. </em>
  • <em>Finally, the star-shaped larvae detach from the strobilus and after a while become their adult form.</em>

In Connor's list, the missing step is the release of larvae from the polyp, after step 5.

melomori [17]

Some facts about Water erosion :

Water erosion is the detachment and removal of soil material by water. The process may be natural or accelerated by human activity. ... Water erosion wears away the earth's surface. Sheet erosion is the more-or-less uniform removal of soil from the surface.

Water and Wind Erosion (cause)

Water erosion is the removal of soil by water and transportation of the eroded materials away from the point of removal. Water action due to rain erodes the soil and causes activities like gully, rill, and stream erosion leading to the downstream effects of flooding and sedimentation.

How does cladistics help us understand phylogeny?
dangina [55]

Answer: C.) Cladistics is based purely on the shared characters between organisms and their ranking in evolutionary history.

 

Explanation:

Phylogeny is the evolutionary science which derives a relationship among the ancient species with their descendants based upon common genetic, physiological and morphological characteristics. Cladistics represent the study of a group of organisms which exhibit a common ancestor. A clade includes organisms having a common ancestors and exhibit similar traits in them. A clade is sufficient to include the organisms in a phylogenic tree based upon their evolutionary history.

How is reproduction done ??
Pavlova-9 [17]

In human, Reproduction is done when two gametes i.e a sperm and an ovum fuse to give a zygote and eventually an offspring.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Reproduction is the process by which a living organism can produce more individuals of same species to continue a race. Reproduction is of various types - asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction.

But in human, only sexual reproduction is seen. Here in human, males do produce sperms in their testis from the sperm mother cells by means of meiosis. Females do produce ovum in their ovary by means of meiosis from ovum mother cell.

Now the fertilization in human is internal fertilization which is achieved by means of coitus or sex between a male and female, where the male inserts his penis into female vagina to release the sperms. These sperms do swim into uterus and then into ampulla region of fallopian tube where it meets the ovum, and fertilization occurs. Then the zygote swims to uterus by passive movements and settle there which is called implantation. Then eventually the cell divisions lead it into a multicellular embryo and then after a gestation period of about 278 days, the baby is delivered. A new offspring is born.
