Answer:

Hox Gene

Explanation:

First, you're question is very vital, there are many ways in classifying along with identifying all living organisms that includes; morphological analysis, molecular systematics (studying the similarities and differences of the genetic data such in the sequences of DNA, RNA, and rRNA ), homology, cladistics, etc. based on phylogenetic tree, which the study of the evolutionary among various species.

But through it said that all living organisms shared one common ancestor. However, what makes them different from one to another is the homeotic genes that called Hox Genes; which specify the fate of a particular segment or region of the body, meaning the number and arrangements of the Hox genes varies considerably among different types of animals.

For instance, Sponges have at least one homologous to Hox genes, also insects have nine or more Hox genes resulting in multiple Hox genes occur in a cluster in which the genes are close to each other along a chromosome. Therefore, increases in the number of Hox genes have been instrumental in the evolution of many animals species with greater complexity in body structure.

Overall, more Hox genes, more complexity in body structure resulting in the differences of their morphological structure.

Hope that answered your question!

Clear access routes into and out of chemical zones used to avoid contamination are called

sp2606 [1]

Access Control Points

They are restrictions points that enforce regulations and guidelines on decontamination when exiting the sites and ensuring adherence safety standards when entering the site. The regulation are usually, as standard practice, conspicuously posted at the Access Control Points.
Access Control Points are usually set up at the periphery of the Exclusion Zones, and ideally, there should be a separate entrance and exit Control Access Point.

Over 95% of incoming UV-B radiation is absorbed in the stratosphere. Please select the best answer from the choices provided

kramer

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The stratosphere is the layer of the earth’s atmosphere which is above the troposphere and below the mesosphere.

The stratosphere contains about 90 percent of the ozone layer. The stratosphere is made up of ozone layers which helps in the absorption of about 95 percent of the ultraviolet rays from the sun and converting to heat.

This is the reason why depletion of the ozone layer found in the stratosphere gives rise to global warming.
