According to the cladogram above, scientists use fossil evidence to anatomically bridge the gap between fish and amphibian.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

The cladogram depicts the evolution from one ancestor to the branches using a diagram which is usually lines. Subsequent researches based on the molecular structures of the fossils it is categorized to fall into that particular lineage.

The cladogram between the fish and the amphibian is used to express the evolution of amphibians from fishes. In a frog the tadpole is fish like when small and then grows into an adult frog which is an amphibian. The lung fish is said to be the ancestor of all amphibians.

This bony fish is said to follow the evolution of limbs modifying their fins. The scientists conclude as per the law of nature where the organisms develop a natural ability to modify itself to suit the environment.

How do structures and functions of organisms vary in different kingdoms????
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

With millions of different kinds of organisms in the world, scientists must find order in all of this diversity. Scientists group living organisms into one or more of a few major categories as part discipline known as taxonomy. The bodies of organisms are organized into functional systems—cells are organized into tissues, and tissues are organized into organs. Body systems carry out critical functions, such as locomotion, reproduction, digestion, and circulation. All living things on Earth are composed of the same carbon-based, molecular building blocks.

Explain how the conversation of wetlands to farmlands has impacted stream and rivers
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Wetland reduction has caused a decrease in the absorption zones for excess water. If the excess water cannot be absorbed by the soil, it increases the incidence and magnitude of flooding.

2)APC degrades securin which allows separase to become active which degrades the cohesin rings: E. Anaphase

3) Dephosphorylation of nuclear pore and lamins: F.Telophase

4) cleavage of plasma membrane by actin and myosin contractile ring:D.Cytokinesis

5) copying of the genome:C. Interphase

6) formation of the metaphase plate:B. Prometaphase

A snapping turtle has 52 chromosomes which statement correctly compares the number of chromosomes in a body so with that in a se
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

The question lacks options, the options are:

A). the body cell has 2n; the sex cell has 1n.

B). the body cell has 26; the sex cell has two.

C). the body cell has 1n; the sex cell has 2n.

D). the body cell has 24; the sex cell has 26

The answer is A

Explanation:

According to the question, the snapping turtle possesses 52 chromosomes in its cell. This means that the chromosomal number of its body cell is 52. However, the turtle, which reproduces sexually will produce gametes or sex cells via meiosis. Meiosis is the kind of cell division that results in daughter cells (gametes) that have a reduced number of chromosomes (by half).

Based on this, the diploid cells (2n) of the turtle with chromosome number 52 will undergo meiotic division to produce haploid gametes or sex cells (n) with chromosome number 26.

N.B: Diploid (2n) means two complete sets of chromosomes while haploid (1n) means one complete set of chromosome.

The body cell of the turtle contains two set of chromosomes received from each parent, hence, making it Diploid (2n). However, meiosis will reduce the chromosome number to one set in each gamete i.e. haploid (n).
