The correct answer is; D
Homologous structures is the term used to describe physical similarities between related species that indicates a common ancestry.
Homologous structures are structures that have the same form or functions in different animals, indicating that the animals have evolved from a common ancestor. Homologous structures usually appear very similar in form but it may or may not have the same function in the different animals that are suggested to be related. The bones in the front limbs of many different mammals (such as humans, deer and bats) which are similar in their structure and arrangement are homologous structures.

Answer:
d. Views could be used to make topographic maps of the area.
Explanation:
Satellite views helps the planners in choosing a location for the airport because it provides topographic maps of the area which contains all information about natural features of that area such as roads, railways, power transmission lines, contours, elevations, rivers and lakes. So the satellite images provides a great help to the planners to find out suitable place for the airport.
Answer:
An extracellular molecule activates a membrane protein, which in turn activates molecules inside the cell.
Explanation:
Signal transduction may be defined as the cellular process in which the signal is transmitted into the cells. The signal transduction results in the detection of the stimuli and the effects generated in the body.
The signal transduction initiates the series of cascade for the signal transmission. The protein is activated by the extracellular molecule and activates the different molecules by the phosphorylation at the different steps of the transduction.
Thus, the correct answer is option (c).
Answer:
a. they can fix carbon at the lower CO2 concentrations that develop when the stomata are closed
Explanation:
C4 plants are those that have the capacity to fix CO2 even when a tiny concentration of it is available.
Desert condition is characterized by dryness and strong heat with both condition capable of creating water stress in plant as a result of evapotranspiration. In order to reduce evapotranspiration rate, desert plants (most C4 plants) close their stomata during the day.
<em>Stomata closure limit the diffusion of CO2 into desert plants and the small concentration of CO2 that results is utilized by a special enzyme in the plants.</em>
The correct option is a.
