Biology

Answer:

Because the ping pong ball has a lesser mass than a baseball; hence the ping pong ball will accelerate faster than the baseball when a constant force is applied to both

Explanation:

The force applied to an object is a product of its mass and acceleration i.e. F=ma. According to Newton's second law of motion, the relationship between the mass of an object and its acceleration when force is applied to it was described.

In a summary, the second law states that that the acceleration of an object increases with increased force and decreases with increased mass. This means that the more the mass of an object, the greater the force needed to make it accelerate and also the more the mass, the lesser it accelerates.

In this case, a ping pong ball has a lesser mass compared to a baseball, hence, it will accelerate faster than the baseball assuming an equal force was applied. Since the ping pong ball will accelerate faster, it will hit a person faster than the baseball.

The study of the similarities and differences between embryos of different organism
Alborosie
I believe the answer is comparative anatomy. It is the study of the similarities and differences in the structures of different species. Similar body parts may be homologies or analogies, such that both provide evidence of evolution. Similarities in embryos are evidence of common ancestry. For example all vertebrates embryos  have gill slits and tails.
