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

C) eggs and nests

D) singing to attract mates

Answer: (c) eggs and nests

Explanation:

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.

<span>How are the dark reactions that occur in plants dependent on the light reactions?
a.The chemical energy used in the dark reactions is produced in the light reactions.

Photosynthesis is divided into two parts.
1) Light - dependent reaction
2) Light - independent reaction

Light dependent reaction absorb energy from the sun to produce ATP and NADPH, these energies are used in the light-independent reaction. The ATP provides the energy, while the NADPH provides the electrons required to fix the carbon dioxide into carbohydrates.

Answer:

B. Mutation; C. Random genetic drift; D. Migration; F. Natural selection

Explanation:

B. Mutation:  Mutations resulting from substitution, addition or deletions of a nucleotide in a sequence can alter the gene. This can be carried over a population and may be have deleterious effects or increase fitness in a gene.

C. Random genetic drift: It is a change in allele frequency that occurs by chance, usually in a small population and is carried over generations.

D. Migration: Involves the flow of a gene in or out of a population, and this modifies the allele frequency.

F. Natural selection: When fitness-promoting alleles are favored and carried over to the next generation.
