Why do vertebrate embryos show similarities between organisms that do not appear in the adults?

It is believed that this happens because some signals that regulate development are the same between different species and because <span>they share ancient genes. </span>These ancient genes are expressed during a middle "phylotypic stage" of embryonic development for all species.

For example,  human and animal embryos go through very similar stages of early development and share similar features such as tails and gill-like structures. The major difference appears to be how long it takes to reach each of these same stages.

Why would competition be considered a limiting factor within a ecosystem
raketka [301]

Answer

The main reason being the amount of food available.

Explanation:

Think of it this way:

If an animal is trying to find food but another species is looking for the same prey then its going to be increasingly difficult for the species to find prey and if there's not enough of the prey species then the population of the predator to go down.

That is why its considered a limiting factor.

What is the TECTONIC CYCLE? Briefly summarize it.
igomit [66]
<span>In simple terms, heavier plates get melted in Mantle, become lighter in form of lava and create new plates. As we have a re-cycle or the convection currents, there are cycles in lithosphere.
There is continuous push and pull happening on and below the Earth. When a plate is subducting on one end, there has to be some reaction on the other end, right?
Ridge is developed on the other side, where the same material which has been melted on the subduction side helps to fill the gap at ridge side. Since the material is just transfered from heavy to light, and reused in that cell, it is called a cycle.
