There may be many forms of a single gene. Each such form is called an allele
The free nerve endings
can detect pain, temperature, itch and hair movement. Merkel's disks can detect pressure, position and static touch features. Pacinian corpuscles are sensitive to vibration while Meissner's corpuscles are sensitive to light and touch.
Plantlike and methanogen organisms share som similar characteristics, for instance, can both produce their own and can process their made food into energy for different cellular processes such as cell division, repair and maintenance.
Despite this similarity though, the difference lies with the source of energy that get to produce the food. Plantlike organisms use sunlight and UV rays to photosynthesize. Whereas, methanogens use methane where sunlight is not present.
Bacteria and plants both have cell wall and this is the main similarity !
in accurate all bacteria, cell wall may not be present !
I would tell the room mate that what i just heard was the resemblance between the Fayum catarrhines and the Miocene proconsulids in skull form and dentition which suggests an evolutionary relationship, even if the direct fossils evidence is not present. Primates are divided into two groups; the prosimians and anthropoids. Monkeys evolved from Prosimians during the Oligocene Epoch while Apes evolved from the Catarrhines in Africa during the Miocene Epoch. Apes are then divided into the lesser apes and the greater apes.
