Earthworms have two muscles which is used in locomotion. Both muscles are circular and longitudinal (inner layer of the series of muscles). The diameter of the earthworms body is reduced when the circular muscles are contracted which makes them appear to be thin. The worm appears short when the longitudinal muscles contract thus, its length is reduced.
Amphioxus on the other hand, have two unique muscle fiber types. This includes deep fibers and smaller but mitochondria-rich superficial fibers. E<span>ach of which has its own innervation.</span>
A) .was immediately accepted
Explanation:
The theory of plate tectonics was immediately recognized as the explanation for the moving continents. It provided a more scientific background as why continents drift apart and the seafloor keeps spreading.
- The theory explains that the earth is broken up into series of slabs called lithosphere which moves on the weak, ductile and fluid asthenosphere.
- The movement of part of the earth mantle provided the mechanism through which the lithosphere moves. This is now known as the mantle convection.
- This theory provided a scientific mechanism through which the plate moves and seafloor spreads.
- It was immediately accepted when the theory was propounded by Alfred Holmes in the 1930s

The answer is; YES
All organisms share one common ancestor in the beginning of life. Different species have branched at different times from common ancestors hence he evolutionary tree looks like tree called a cladogram. The nodes represent the common ancestry while branches depict divergence. Therefore even fruit flies and the fruit bats even though they do not belong to the same species shared a common ancestor at one time in history.
If the trait is sex-linked (on the X or Y chromosome) or autosomal (on a chromosome that does not determine sex).
If the trait is inherited in a dominant or recessive fashion.
