In the picture attached to this question, the two diagrams above did not show very well but I believe that the first diagram contain four dots, which means that the correct option is A.
Carbon has six electrons, that is why 6 is its atomic number is 6 . In writing electronic configuration, two electrons are usually placed in the most inner shell while the other shells will have 8 electrons each. In the case of carbon which has 6 electrons, only four will remain after 2 electron has been put in its inner shell. Therefore the number of electron in its outermost shell will be four.

Q6: A
Q7:D
Q8:C

Reasoning
Q6: Based on all the other questions talking about common ancestors I deduced that to find a “common” ancestor they need to find things that are the same.

Q7: All arthropod have a exo skeleton for example a lobster or crab. They all have a head, abdomen and thorax for example ants. They all have legs with joints for example a spider.

Q7:So bones are traveled down by ancestors so the types of bones stay the same but natural selection has changed them to better fit their environment.

melomori [17]

The answers are; A & B

Intuitively as it sounds, cyclic change is the change that recurs over a particular period of time. Seasons recur every year in specific regions on earth. In addition, receeding and expanding of ice caps also occur  based on seasons. These two are examples of cyclic changes.
