If cave salamander didn’t evolve from sighted ancestors, it eyes would be a vestigial structure.

Cave salamanders live in the zone, with complete lack of light (dark zone), so this organisms adapted to that environment with blindness. It is believed that cave salamanders evolved from the ones that could see. The explanation of why they lost their sight is that they conserved energy needed to maintain sight to be more successful in reproduction.

Answer:

Eyes would be a vestigial structure.

Explanation:

A vestigial structure as a stunted organ that has little or no function in a particular organism. An example of this can be seen in the question above which states that some blind salamdras have eyes. These eyes have no use for these salamanders, so we can say that the eyes of the salamander is a vestigial structure.

According to the theory of evolution, organisms have undergone and undergo changes over time, with new species emerging from some common ancestor. Studying different groups of organisms, we realize several characteristics that serve as evidence for this theory. The presence of trace structures is one such evidence.

Compare the physical and chemical properties of a compound to those of the elements of which it is composed
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.It can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions. Example: water H_2O

2H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2H_2(g+O_2(g)

Physical property is defined as the property of a substance which becomes evident during physical changes. Water is liquid at room temperature whereas hydrogen and oxygen are gases at room temperature.

Chemical property is defined as the property of a substance which becomes evident during chemical changes. Water reacts with metals to form bases, hydrogen reacts with metals to form hydrides and oxygen reacts with metals to form oxides.
