Answer:

Apes

Explanation:

The primate groups most closely related to humans are Apes. The gorillas, orangutans and chimpanzees are the great apes. The gibbons are lesser apes. The Miocene epoch leads to emergence and diversification of Hominoids. The hominoids are humans, great apes and gibbons.

The human  and chimpanzee last common ancestor survived for about 6.5mya. The teeth and fragmented jaws are the fossil evidence of living humans and apes. Thus, Apes are the primate groups that are closely related to humans.

Alternate forms of a gene that lead to alternative traits are called
Savatey [412]
The answer is alleles.  In addition, the phenotype of an organism is the physical look resulting from the expression of the genes present. The principle of segregation states that substitute alleles for a trait discrete from one another throughout gamete formation and keep on distinct. A diploid organism that has two alike alleles for the same trait is named homozygous for that particular trait.

Which statement describes how pioneer species and climax communities are different?
Lorico [155]

Answer: D). Primary species have large numbers of offsprings, and climax communities contain species that have small numbers of offsprings.

An ecological succession is a process of gradual changes occurs in a biological community with respect to changes in the non-living abiotic factors  (water, air and sunlight) and with respect to time until the ecosystem attains stability. Primary or pioneer species are the species which invade the previously barren and primitive landmass for their survival. These species make the environment suitable for the growth of other species. These grow and develop in the initial stages of succession. These species are simple organisms which reproduce asexually and produces large number of offsprings. Examples are lichen and moss. Lichen grows on the surface of rocks and acids released by them causes withering of rocks into soil which facilitate the growth of mosses and other plants. Climax community develops in an ecosystem after replacing many previously inhabiting species. Climax community develops in the end of the ecological succession. It contains species which are highly complex and uses sexual reproduction for the production of offsprings which are less in number as compared to those produced by pioneer species by asexual reproduction.
