Our grandmother found out you're taking a course on human evolution and asks, 'did we evolve from chimpanzees? How do you answer

her?
A. No; chimpanzees are more closely related to orangutans than to humans.
B. It's complicated; we evolved from living apes but not specifically chimpanzees
C. No; while we are most closely related to chimpanzees, humans and chimpanzees evolved from a common ancestor and chimpanzees have also evolving (just as the human lineage has) since that split. Grandma, one living species did not evolve from another!
D. Scientists aren't sure; there is no evidence for similarities between humans and apes.
E. Yes; chimpanzees are living relics of our evolutionary history, and similarly, chimpanzees evolved from monkeys

Answer:

Option B, It's complicated; we evolved from living apes but not specifically chimpanzees

Explanation:

Humans resembles very closely with the Apes and thus it is believed that the closest ancestors to humans is ape. Humans have not originated from chimpanzees, gorillas or even apes. There are several controversies associated with the evolution of humans. There have been several geological time gaps during the evolution of humans. Also though humans have not evolved from the Apes , they share several primate characteristics with them.

Hence, option B is correct

Describe the similarities and differences between the cytokinesis mechanisms found in animal cells versus those in plant cells.
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Cytokinesis is the process of the cell cycle which divides the cytoplasm of the parent cell into two cells.

The process of cytokinesis involves the membrane of the cell, so the process differs in plant and animals cell as the plant cell exhibits two layers that are the cell wall surrounding the plasma membrane while animal cell lacks the cell wall. the main difference in both the process is:

1. Plant cell division-occurs by cell plate formation while animal cell division- occurs by full cleavage.

2. In-Plant cell- no cytoskeleton is involved while in animal cell- Cytoskeleton components are actively involved

3.  Plant cell division is centripetal while animal cell division is  centrifugal

4. Plant cell-wall formation is present while animal cell-Wall formation is absent

The similarities in both the process are that it generates the genetically identical daughter cells. In both cells, cytokinesis after the karyokinesis and is the last stage of the division.

asambeis [7]

Answer:

Ionizing radiation

Explanation:

Ionizing radiation is a method of sterilization that can be used to sterilze material that can not withstand some higher temperature and cannot be exposed to water for sterilization.

It is form of energy that is released when atoms is released to move in the form of electromagnetic waves or particles. such as; X-rays or Gamma rays particles,neutrons, alpha or beta.

It could be dangerous if atoms inliving cells is exposed to it because the cell will be ionized, and it can lead to death of cell , or the mutatation of cell and can lead to cancer. Although not all cells are affected by ionizing radiation.

1)X-Rays, X-rays move in the form of photons energy .

2)Alpha Particles. Alpha particles have less penetration than gamma ray they don't penetrate skin as x-rays

3)Beta Particles, they are particles of electrons which are faster than alpha particles.
