Complete question: A phylogenetic tree shows that birds and crocodiles share many features. A hypothesis based on this tree predicts that these features are present in a common ancestor. Which of these predicted traits is supported by fossil evidence?
A) four-chambered heart
B) singing for territory
C) eggs and nests
D) singing to attract mates
Answer: (c) eggs and nests
Explanation:
A hypothesis based on phylogenetic tree shows that birds and crocodiles have ancestral connection. Fossil evidence shows that their common ancestor exhibit oviparity as a means of reproduction (i.e. laying of eggs and embryo develops within the egg), and also housed their eggs in the nest for protection against predators and other important reasons.
Answer:
If the question is referring to Mendel's postulates, all options are correct
Explanation:
Gregor Mendel discovered that certain components he called UNIT FACTORS determine inheritance. This unit factors were later described to be genes in modern genetics. He discovered that an organism receives two forms of this unit factors from each parent, which he called ALLELES. In his experiments, he observed that one of the pair of alleles have the ability to mask the expression of its variant pair. He called the allele that masks, DOMINANT allele while the allele that is masked, RECESSIVE allele.
During his cross experiment, he discovered that the alleles of a gene (unit factor) separates into gametes, he called this LAW OF SEGREGATION. He notably discovered in his cross involving two different characters that the segregation of the alleles of one gene into gametes does not influence the segregation of the alleles of the other gene. He termed this his LAW OF INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT.

It converts light energy which is abiotic, to glucose, which is consumed by organisms for energy. (It transfers to the appropriate type of energy for biotic organisms)
