Evolution :).
Descent with modification helps to explain anatomical similarities among certain species. The bones of the forelimbs of humans, cats, and bats (you can add in penguins, alligators, and more) are used in different ways but have similar structures.
The best explanation is that these animals have a common ancestor. With new generations, new species emerged by natural selection from different populations, and with this, the bones become better for different tasks.
The forelimbs and other such structures with anatomical similarities due to a common ancestor are called homologous structures.
Hypothesis, is the answer
Answer:
The cell
Explanation:
<em>The smallest or most specific level of organization that all living organisms (including myself and my neighbors) have in common is </em><em>the cell.</em>
This is in accordance with the cell theory which has three basic components, including:
1. The cell is the basic unit of life
2. All living organisms are made up cells
3. Cells arose from pre-exsiting cells.
<u>Other levels of organisation include tissues which are group of cells specialized for a certain function, organs which are group of tissues serving similar function, and systems which are group of organs working together as a unit.</u>
Answer:
1/4
Explanation:
Given that the F2 cross produces offspring according to the expected 9:3:3:1 ratio.
YyRr X YyRr:
Let us break the dihybrid cross into individual monohybrid crosses.
Yy X Yy :
Y y
Y YY Yy
y Yy yy
2/4 or 1/2 of the offspring are heterozygous for the trait.
Similarly, in Rr X Rr cross, 1/2 of the offspring are heterozygous for the trait.
Together, 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4 of F2 plants are expected to be heterozygous for both traits.
