Answer:

Neither A nor B is correct

Explanation:

Hydrologic cycle is the sequence of different conditions through which the water passes from oceans to clouds, precipitates as rains, comes to the rivers and finally reaches the ocean.

This first statement in the question said that water will end up in the river which is not true because water from the river ultimately ends in the oceans because all the rivers terminate in the oceans finally.

The second statement is also wrong because when water from one ocean vaporizes and becomes cloud, it can travel large distances as clouds in the effect of wind and thus may get precipitated in the form of rain in some other part of the world. So, it is not necessary that the water will end up in the same ocean.

Construct an explanation to predict the type of symbiotic relationship that exists between the hippo and oxpecker birds?

Allisa [31]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<h2>The hippopotamus and the oxpecker bird are in a mutualistic and parasitic relationship. This is because the oxpecker bird gets food and protection from the hippopotamus. However, the bird gets food by making little cuts in the hippopotamus to obtain insects. This isn't entirely harmful to the hippopotamus though.</h2>

What evidence suggests that vertebrates are more closely related to echinoderms than are any other invertebrate phyla?

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Option C, shared DNA sequences

Explanation:

Complete question -

What evidence suggests that vertebrates are more closely related to echinoderms than are any other invertebrate phyla?

- shared patterns of development

- shared morphology

- shared DNA sequences

Solution

Vertebrates have true backbone while invertebrates lack true backbone. Among the invertebrates, the echinoderm phylum is closely related to vertebrates as the echinoderm possesses notochord (similar to backbone) during their early stage development which disappears later.

Through the genomic sequence studies it has been found that echinoderms are similar to vertebrates in many ways. Echinoderms have diverged from deuterostomes along with human and hence pose some genetic similarity which can be devised through study of common DNA sequences

Hence, option C is correct
