Answer:
The "Cambrian Explosion" refers to the sudden appearance in the fossil record of complex animals with mineralized skeletal remains. It may represent the most important evolutionary event in the history of life on Earth.
Explanation:
Answer: By Hormonal action and Nervous coordination
Explanation:
Hormones are substances produced by one tissue and conveyed by the bloodstream to another to effect physiological activity. Homeostasis is the maintenance of a stable internal environment in the body.
Body systems such as digestive, circulatory, excretory systems etc, all are coordinated to achieve a STABLE INTERNAL ENVIRONMENT by the aid of HORMONES AND/OR NERVOUS COORDINATION.
For Example: the vasodilation of blood vessels during hot weather, and the opposite action of vasoconstriction during cold weather are both controlled by Hormonal action and nervous coordination which leads to a stable body temperature preventing excess heat accumulation.
Also, Nervous system controls the body systems, such that the muscle contractions are joined to actions like sweating, breathing, respiration etc
So, to maintain homeostasis hormonal action and Nervous coordination is necessary.
Out of the following given choices;
A. theory that fish and mammals have a common ancestry
B. theory that the first organisms on Earth were heterotrophs
C. close relationship between fish and mammalian reproductive patterns
D. close relationship between humans and annelids
The answer is A. Many embryos of the kingdom Animalia share similarities in the early stages depicting that they share a common ancestor. The gill slits is one example. They diverge in later stages to become Pharyngeal in the human embryo, while they differentiate into gills in fish.
Answer: a naturally occurring depsipeptide used in the transport of potassium
Answer:
Decomposers
Explanation:
The diagram in this question illustrates a food web, which is a series of interlinked food chains in an ecosystem. In a food chain as depicted in the image, the arrows point to the organism that feeds on another organism. For example, an arrow is pointing from Idaho fescue to an Elk meaning that the elk will feed on that plant.
Different trophic levels constituting organisms exists in the food web including; producers (plants), primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers etc. However, as observed in the image, a general arrow carrying along all the organism is pointing towards the organism in the question mark. This organism is called DECOMPOSER.
A decomposer, usually a microorganism, is an organism that breaks down dead organisms and returns the nutrient to the soil for recycling. All organisms in the food web will eventually die and when they do, they'll be decomposed by a decomposer. This is why the arrow pointing towards the decomposers include all organisms.
