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

D) singing to attract mates

Answer: (c) eggs and nests

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:

less than 1%

Explanation:

The approximate percentage of the geologic time that humans have existed on the Earth since its origin is less than 1%.

The earth is about 4.6 billion years and much of its history has been without the present of human activities.

  • Hominis were the first human to appear on the surface of the earth.
  • This was in the Miocene epoch which was about 6 million years ago.
  • Compared to the age of the earth, this time lapse is very small and not up to 1%.
  • Life first appeared on earth about 3.5billion years.
  • Since then evolution has taken its due course to give what we have today.

How are convection currents produced in the air?
nika2105 [10]
Convection currents are caused by the colliding of cold and warm air. At night, air above water is warm and air above land is cold. The opposite is true in daytime. When the warm air hits the cold air, which is more dense, it is pushed upward. Then it travels laterally until it cools. It comes back down and pushes up the former cold air, which is now warm. This repeats many times.
