Answer:

The correct answer is homologous.

Explanation:

A structure that is derived from a common ancestor is called homologous structure. So homologous structure is the characteristic of divergent evolution that means divergent evolution give rise to homologous structures.

So as the marsupials are mammals that were diverged from placental mammals very early in mammalian evolution, the membranes of skin that allow Australian sugar gliders and North American flying squirrels to glide are homologous because divergent evolution gives rise to homologous structures.

The function of these homologous structures can be the same or can be different. Therefore the correct answer is their membrane are homologous.

The discoverers of DNA were not James D Watson and Francis Crick. They are the first scientist to formulate an accurate description of the DNA’s (deoxyribonucleic acid) complex , double-helical structure. They discovered that base pairing nucleotides must be; adenine and thymine; and cytosine and guanine. These base pairs are held together by a hydrogen bond, atype of chemical reaction that s easy to break and easy to reform. The statement is “DNA is a double helix made of two strands linked together with hydrogen bonds.”

Can someone please describe the role of fermentation in maintaining ATP and NAD+ levels? I cant fully grasp the concept. Answer
Solnce55 [7]
Fermentation is the process by which a carbohydrate molecule is broken down into alcohol and carbon dioxide in the absence of oxygen. During this process, two molecules of ATP is produced. In the absence of oxygen, pyruvate formed from glycolysis will undergo fermentation process. During the process of fermentation, NADH from glycolysis will be converted back to NAD+. This is necessary in order for glycolysis to continue. Thus, fermentation regenerate more NAD+ and only a few molecule of ATP.

Select the correct answer.<br> Which alignment of the Sun, Moon, and Earth causes a lunar eclipse?
diamong [38]

Answer:

Observing a Lunar Eclipse

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes directly behind the Earth into its umbra (shadow). This can occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are aligned exactly with the Earth in the middle. Hence, a lunar eclipse can only occur the full moon phase.
