Roundworm
Explanation:
Unsegmented kicks out the possibility of A or D. Roundworms are pointed at their ends and have distinct males and females
A phylogenetic tree is the representation of the evolutionary relationships among species. The fossil records are used as evidence to develop a phylogenetic tree. Thus, option A is correct.
<h3>What is a fossil record?</h3>
A fossil record is a depiction of the organisms that shared common ancestors and depicts the change in the structural and functional unit of the organism over many years of time.
They are used to illustrate the phylogenetic tree to show the morphological, structural, chemical, anatomical, etc variations in species that shared ancestry.
Therefore, option A. fossil records are used to show the common ancestry at the nodes.

Answer:
a. Manipulated variable: TEMPERATURE
b. Responding variable: CRICKET CHIRP
c. Controlled variable: Same species of cricket
d. Hypothesis: IF the temperature is increased, THEN crickets will chirp more
Explanation:
Independent variable, also called the manipulated variable, is the variable that is changed or manipulated in an experiment. In this case, the independent variable is the TEMPERATURE.
Dependent or responding variable is the variable that responds to changes made to the independent variable. The dependent variable in this case is CHIRP OF THE CRICKETS.
Controlled variable is the variable that must be kept unchanged for all groups throughout the experiment. The controlled variable in this case is SAME SPECIES CRICKET USED.
Hypothesis is a testable explanation (via experimentation) to an observed problem or a given question. In this investigation involving Melissa, an hypothesis is: IF the temperature is increased, THEN crickets will chirp more.
