Answer:
The term "phenotype" refers to the observable physical properties of an organism; these include the organism's appearance, development, and behavior. An organism's phenotype is determined by its genotype, which is the set of genes the organism carries, as well as by environmental influences upon these genes.

Answer:
Following are some of the possible consequences of mutations:
1. Some of the mutations take place in proteins that play an essential role in the function of cells, and thus, the cell dies.
2. Some mutations result in the origination of new traits like red hair.
3. Some mutations take place in genes, which monitor the division of cell and thus cells start to divide out of control, resulting in cancer.
4. Some of the mutations may be beneficial and may offer some benefit to the organism in some of the environments. These advantageous mutations may be encouraged by natural selection and are the basis for the evolution of life on Earth.
Answer:
A. These homologous structures indicate that these four organisms all share a common ancestor.
Explanation:
Homologous structures mean the organs will have similar structure, but not necessarily function (human arm vs whale's flipper). While analogous structures are similar in function but not structure (wings of an airplane vs wings of a bird). Since the question states that they are similar in skeletal structure, we know they must be homologous structures, thereby eliminating B and C. D is not a choice because the question does not provide anything about the order of evolution. Therefore the answer is A. These homologous structures indicate that these four organisms all share a common ancestor.
