Answer:

Homology in bat wings, alligator leg, and a human arm represents their divergent evolution from common ancestor.

Explanation:

Homologous organs share a common basic structure but are adapted to perform different functions according to the need of organisms. Wings of bats (flying mammal), leg of alligator (reptile) and human (terrestrial mammal) arm share common basic developmental plan but are adapted to serve in flight, movement and holding things respectively.

Presence of homologous organs in these organisms from different group represents their evolution from a common ancestor. This means that bats, human, and alligators should have a common ancestor. Divergent evolution of the descends from the common ancestor must have given rise to homologous structures.

How does the energy move between two systems
notsponge [240]
Heat can travel from one place to another in three ways: Conduction, Convection and Radiation. Both conduction and convection require matter to transfer heat. If there is a temperature difference between two systems heat will always find a way to transfer from the higher to lower system

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is ''The scientific study of heredity''

Explanation:

Genetics is a branch of biology that studies how hereditary characters are transmitted from generation to generation and the diversity that exists among living beings. Inheritance is the physical and biological characteristics that we share with our family and that can determine our appearance and our biological characteristics, that is, our phenotype (eye color, skin type, etc.) as well as our internal characteristics. All of this is largely derived from our genetic components, that is, our genotype.

Can someone help me with this, also brainliest.<br> PUNNETT SQUARES
user100 [1]

Explanation:

G- green feathers

g- yellow feathers

L- long beak

l- short beak

Letters are the easiest way of modeling a Punnett square. The big letters mean it's dominant, while the lower case means it's recessive. Dominant traits will show up over the recessive traits. The answer is 75% because if the female is heterozygous, her alleles would be Ll, and as I said before, the big letters take over the little letters in any case.

I hope this helps :)
