Answer: B. evaporation, condensation, precipitation
Explanation:
The cycle that ensures that fresh water is available is called the Hydrological cycle and it involves several key processes.
As it is a cycle, none of the processes can be considered first but if any could, it would be evaporation. This is when water on the surface is heated and becomes water vapor (gas) and rises towards the atmosphere.
Condensation occurs as the water vapor rises because the further up you go, the colder it gets. These water vapor particles will thus condense and clump together to form clouds.
These clouds keep getting larger until they are too heavy to be carried by the atmosphere in which case they fall to the ground as rain the process known as precipitation.

Answer:
Xiao can use these structures to create a similarity matrix that enables to differentiate between synapomorphies and homoplasies
.
Explanation:
A synapomorphy is a trait that has been inherited from the same ancestor, this trait enables to establish a relation of homology between two or more species; while a homoplasy is an analog structure that doesn't have homology.
Answer:
1 and 5,
2 and 6,
3 and 4
Explanation:
Intestinal phase: stomach empties and decreases secretions
The intestinal phase is the phase where stomach empties its contents(chyme) and decreases secretion. In this stage the duodenum responds to arriving chyme and moderates gastric activity through hormones and nervous reflexes.
The Chyme is the semi-fluid mass of partly digested food that is expelled by the stomach, through the pyloric valve, into the duodenum.
Gastric phase: stomach secretes juice and mixes food into chyme
The gastric phase is a period in which swallowed food and semi-digested protein ( peptides and amino acids ) activate gastric activity which secretes juice and mixes food into chyme. About two-thirds of gastric secretion occurs during this phase.
Cephalic phase: prepares stomach for arrival of food
The cephalic phase of digestion is the gastric secretion that occurs prior to when food enters the oral cavity. Cephalic phase result from the ignition of visual, olfactory, and auditory inputs to the brain and also induce anticipatory responses i.e prepare the gastrointestinal tract for the meal.
