Insect Compound Eye vs. Human Eye. Insects and humans have very different types of eyes, but each has advantages and disadvantages. ... The quality of its vision is much higher than that of a compound eye, and it has a much more complex construction

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Human eyes have one lens whereas compound eyes have many lenses</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Compound eyes consist of multiple lenses about up to tens of thousands where each focusing light onto a small number of retinula cells whereas simple eyes only detect changes in light level. Most of the insects have compound eyes and the biggest advantage to being an insect has to do with their field of view. Different insects have different acuity of vision due to compound eyes.

Identify the response of the body's homeostatic control systems to large increases in muscle o2 requirements during heavy exerci
Scorpion4ik [409]

The response of the body's homeostatic control systems to large increases in muscle O₂ requirements during heavy exercise is the increase in body's pulmonary ventilation.

Homeostasis is the state of balanced internal system of the body. A homeostatic body does gets affected by the outer environment as it adjusts itself accordingly. The state of homeostasis can be in terms of thermoregulation, blood glucose regulation, osmoregulation, etc.

Pulmonary ventilation is the process of inhalation and exhalation of air. This is done to fulfil the demand of oxygen in the body and also to remove the waste carbon dioxide from the body. Pulmonary ventilation in simple terms is breathing.

Homologous structures are structures found in one species that have the same basic anatomical structure and embryonic origin as
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

C. a whale's flipper and a cat's leg

Explanation:

Homologous structures are the organs which have same basic anatomical structure but they perform different function based on the type of environment in which the organism is living. Two organisms which have homologous organs indicate that both the organisms are evolutionarily closely related to each other i.e. their ancestry is common. It is basically divergent evolution which is responsible for formation of homologous organs. If two closely related organisms are living in different environment then their organs which basically have same origin will tend to perform different functions as a part of adaptation. In contrast to this, analogous structures are the ones which perform similar function but anatomically they are very different and evolutionarily they are not closely related. Analogous structures are evolved as a result of convergent evolution which is meant for adaptation in a particular environment. So, even if two organisms are not closely related they still develop the structures which perform similar function so as to adapt into a particular environment.

Whales and cats both are mammals so they are closely related to each other but since they live in different environment, their organs which are anatomically similar perform different functions. Flippers in whales help in swimming while cat's leg help in walking. So, option C is correct answer.

All other options are examples of analogous organs.

A bird's wings and a butterfly's wings are perfect example of analogous organs. A bird is a vertebrate while a butterfly is an arthropod so evolutionarily they are very distantly related so their wings are also anatomically very dissimilar but they still perform similar function which help these two organisms in flying. So option A is incorrect. Similarly option D is also incorrect because wasp is an arthropod while dolphin is a vertebrate. Option B is also incorrect because catfish is a vertebrate and bee is an arthropod.
