Answer:

Paranthropus robustus

Explanation:

2.5 million years ago some autralopithecines were identified by dating fossils from South Africa, meaning they lived a good period of time. Of these, Australopithecus africanus is well known and is a little closer to our species. Other fossils found in excavations in both southern Africa and eastern Africa have been found to be of more recent specimens 2.5 to 2 million years ago. These specimens were classified as Paranthropus robustus and Paranthropus boisei. These australopithecine species became extinct and left no current descendants.

Frogs exchange gasses through the ____________________ and the ______________________.
Alona [7]
Frogs exchange gases through their skin and the lining of their mouths. This exchange of gases is referred to as respiration. During the larval stage in frogs development, it lacks functional lungs but they can take in oxygen through gills which are in process of metamorphosis. 
The gills take in oxygen when water is being passed over them. Once lungs are mature, they lose their gills and are able to bring in oxygen through lungs.
They rely on lungs to breath when they are active and they need more oxygen than what skin respiration alone can provide.
Although they have oxygen, most of their respiration occurs through the skin.

Does DNA in animals and plants use the same nitrogenous base pairs?
irina [24]

Answer: There are pretty obvious differences between plants and animals, but – at the chemical level – the cells of all plants and all animals contain DNA in the same shape – the famous “double helix” that looks like a twisted ladder. What’s more, all DNA molecules – in both plants and animals – are made from the same four chemical building blocks – called nucleotides.

Brums [2.3K]

An 1815 volcanic eruption in Indonesia was followed by a three-year famine around the world. This was due to:

a.The eruption's ash and gas significantly dimmed the sun.

The volcanic ash and gases like the sulphur dioxde remained suspended in the atmosphere for years. This reduced the availability of sunlight and hindered the process of photosynthesis that the crops perform for their growth. This lead to the death of farm crops causing a global shortage of food production (famines).

e.The eruption contributed to global warming.

The volcanic gases like CO, CO2 and CH4 caused the warming up of earth in the later years. This changed the weather patterns in various parts of the planet leading to drought, floods and cyclones. Such drastic climatic changes harm the crops and lead to their shortage.

poizon [28]

Answer: Mitochondria make energy through a series of chemical reactions that pass electrons along a membrane. ... “Keeping those genes locally in the mitochondria gives the cell a way to individually control mitochondria,” Johnston says, because pivotal proteins are created in the mitochondria themselves.
