<span>Mammals are advanced synapsids, animals distinguished by having extra openings in the skull behind the eyes; this opening gave the synapsids stronger jaw muscles and jaws (the jaw muscles were anchored to the skull opening) than previous animals. Synapsids include the mammals, and their ancestors, the pelycosaurs, therapsids, and cynodonts. Pelycosaurs (like Dimetrodon and Edaphosaurus) were early synapsids, they were mammal-like reptiles. Later synapsids include the therapsids and the cynodonts (with multicusped post-canine teeth; they lived from the late Permian through the Triassic period). The cynodonts led to the true mammals. Over time, the synapsid gait became more upright and tail length decreased</span>

What are the similarities between reproductive cells and body cells? Where are they found?
daser333 [38]

Organisms that reproduce sexually produce sex cells, or gametes, that carry a single set of chromosomes, the haploid number for the species. In contrast, body, or somatic, cells are the regular cells that form the organism’s tissues and organs. Somatic cells of sexual organisms have the diploid number of chromosomes, one set from each parent. Both cell types undergo mitosis, but only the primary reproductive cells, or gametocytes, also undergo meiosis.

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

A) Sedimentary

B) Weathering

Explanation:

A sedimentary soil/rock is formed when carrying agents such as wind or water carries rock pieces or soils particles from faraway places and deposit them at one place through a process known as lithification. However, increased pressure and temperature causes weathering of rocks. Changing temperature causes a rock to expand or cool alternatively thereby giving rise of internal stresses. While exfoliation is caused on increasing pressure.
