a. parsimony; simplest; fewest
When selecting among multiple possible phylogenetic trees that fit our data, we commonly use the principle of <u>parsimony</u>, which means we choose the <u>simplest</u> possible hypothesis. In phylogenetic analysis, that means selecting the tree that represents the <u>fewest</u> evolutionary changes or mutations.
Explanation:
Phylogeny describes the evolutionary history of on organism or group of organisms.
A phylogenetic tree structure is used to describe the relationship between various organisms which have originated from common ancestors.
The Principle of Parsimony is best applied while constructing phylogenetic tree.
This principle emphasizes on simple observations on a phylogeny which requires only few changes or variations which explain for the difference between the phylogenic sequences.
This tree structure will only have few specific genetic variations or mutations or evolutionary changes which took place through new appearance of a trait or disappearance of an existing trait.
Answer:
esophagus, pancreas, liver, gallblader, salivary glands
Explanation:
Mitochondria - The mitochondria is referred to as the power house of the cell. Its main function if to produceenergy for cell by the process of cellular respiration. The energyproduced is ATP. Endoplasmic Reticulum - It is a network for transportation of certain substances in and out of the nucleus.
Eccentricity of a body following an elliptical orbit defines how nearly circular the path of the object is. When the eccentricity of an orbiting body increases, it means that the body is moving in the most stretched out path.
Answer: The SA node
Answer choices are:
<span>A. </span>The AV node
<span>B. </span>The SA node
<span>C. </span>The purkinje fibers
<span>D. </span>The AV bundle
The SA node<span> is the heart's natural pacemaker consisting of a cluster of cells located in the upper part of the wall of the right atrium. (the right upper chamber of the heart). The electrical impulses are produced and sent out from there to regulate heartbeat. This is also called the sinus code. </span>
