Answer:

We fear flying in a plane, nuclear power plants or being struck by lightning more because our risk perception isn't rational. We assess risks using a mixture of cognitive skills (weighing the evidence, using reasoning and logic to reach conclusions) and emotional appraisals. In this case, we believe that overheating or lack of exercise is something we can control. We believe we can feel the process taking place and we can react in time. We fear all the situations that we cannot control.

An afterimage may be a ordinary phenomenon or may be pathological. Illusory palinopsia can be a pathological exaggeration of physiological afterimages. Afterimages arise due to the fact photochemical activity in the retina keeps even whilst you are no longer experiencing the unique stimulus.

Constructing phylogenies is not as simple as grouping organisms with similar characters together. Identify situations in which s
Dmitrij [34]

Answer

similar characters evolved owing to convergent evolution; similar characters are ancestral

Explanation:

Convergent evolution happens when two organisms belonging to different species, living at different times or different continents but the same biome develop analogous structures hence making them appear similar.  The analogous structures were not present in the known ancestors of both groups.

Therefore convergent evolution is ignored during constructing phylogenies

Also similar characteristics that are ancestral are ignored.
