Answer:

In the course of evolution mammals are the animals which are evolved recently as compared to other groups such as fish, amphibians, or reptiles.

In addition, fur or hairs on body, mammary glands, middle ear bone, warm-blood, et cetera are the characteristics of mammals.

These characteristics were evolved during the course of evolution; they were not present in ancestral organisms.

However, tail, gill pouches, et cetera are characteristics of our ancestral groups. Thus, characters can be sometimes observed in mammals.

But mammals characteristics can not be observed in organisms which were evolved before mammals such as fishes, amphibians, reptiles, et cetera.

Respiration links up the simple sugar oxygen with the gas
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Respiration links up the simple sugar, <u><em>glucose</em></u><em>,</em> with the gas <u><em>oxygen .</em></u>

Explanation:

In the process of respiration, oxygen is used to breakdown glucose. Water and carbon dioxide are produced due as a result of this reaction. A huge amount of energy, in the form of ATP is also released during this process. ATP is used by almost every cell of the body to carry out normal cellular functions. Energy is mainly stored in the linkage between the second and third phosphate of an ATP molecule.
