Answer:
D. all of the above
Explanation:
Australopithecus (first ape-man): Australopithecus is considered as the connecting link between apes and man as they shared the characteristics of both. The fossil records shows that they appeared around 5 million years ago. <em>Australopithecus africanus</em> was about 1.5 meters high and had human as well as ape like features. It was with bipedal locomotion, omnivorous in their diet and had erect posture. It had human like teeth with small canines and large chewing teeth. The brain was more like an ape with the brain capacity of about 500 cc similar to that of an ape. He lived in caves, had projected brow ridges with no chin. Its believed that <em>Australopithecus africanus</em> gave rise to <em>Homo habilis</em> about 2 million years ago.
The earliest species of Homo genus is <em>Homo habilis</em>. They were skill full man also called as handy man or the tool maker. He had erect posture with bipedal locomotion. The teeth were like modern man. He was skilled and made tools with stones. Slowly with evolution the prognathous face changed to orthognathous in cro magnon (<em>Homo sapiens fossilis</em>).
Answer:
a. shorten
Explanation:
Inability or failure for joints to move through their entire range of motion is caused by constrictions. These constrictions often results when the excess adipose tissues that surrounds the muscles and ligaments are not in required adequate proportion. These constrictions can be caused by ageing, fatigue, muscular diseases etc. As a result of these constriction in the joints, let say for example, the knee joint, the muscle and ligaments tends to shorten in length.
Plant cells do not perform respiration, so A,C, and D couldn't be correct but they don't digest either. so gain energy plants go through a light dependent reaction and the Calvin cycle which makes up photosynthesis.
Answer:
D diffusion across a membrane
Explanation:
Based on whether or not energy input is required, there are two types of processes viz: passive and active. Passive processes are those that do not require energy input in form of ATP while active processes require energy input to occur.
An example of passive process is DIFFUSION, which is the movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration across a membrane. Diffusion is passive i.e does not require energy, because movement occurs down a concentration gradient.
Other processes in the options like cell division, DNA replication and protein synthesis all require energy input to occur.
