The answer is common ancestor.

Since these two organisms are adapted to different environments and still have structural similarities, that means that they must have a common ancestor. Common ancestor is an ancestral organism that two or more descendant lineages have in common.

In C3 plants the conservation of water promotes _____.
telo118 [61]

Answer:

The correct option is d. In C3 plants the conservation of water promotes photorespiration.

Explanation:

Photorespiration is a metabolic pathway that leads to the loss of half the carbon fixed by photosynthesis, it occurs when the rubisco enzyme (which is responsible for carrying out the carbon fixation) of the Calvin cycle acts on oxygen instead of dioxide carbon. Photorespiration occurs in C3 plants, (considered C3, by the three carbon compound) when the CO2 concentration is reduced. The first step of the Calvin cycle is the fixation of carbon dioxide by rubisco, but at low concentrations of CO2, oxygen begins to be set in place. In conditions of moderate temperatures when C3 plants have enough water, the carbon dioxide supply is abundant and photorespiration is not a problem.

Greenhouse gases are essential to support life on earth.<br> True or false?
just olya [345]
Greenhouse gases are naturally occurring gases that are also produced as a result of human consumption, such as the burning of fossil fuels. They are essential to life in that a gas such as carbon dioxide (Co2) is essential to photosynthesis and the production of oxygen which helps to sustain life. However, the levels of greenhouse gases are far outreaching their natural limits and are having a negative impact on human and animal life.

How is reproduction done ??
Pavlova-9 [17]

In human, Reproduction is done when two gametes i.e a sperm and an ovum fuse to give a zygote and eventually an offspring.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Reproduction is the process by which a living organism can produce more individuals of same species to continue a race. Reproduction is of various types - asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction.

But in human, only sexual reproduction is seen. Here in human, males do produce sperms in their testis from the sperm mother cells by means of meiosis. Females do produce ovum in their ovary by means of meiosis from ovum mother cell.

Now the fertilization in human is internal fertilization which is achieved by means of coitus or sex between a male and female, where the male inserts his penis into female vagina to release the sperms. These sperms do swim into uterus and then into ampulla region of fallopian tube where it meets the ovum, and fertilization occurs. Then the zygote swims to uterus by passive movements and settle there which is called implantation. Then eventually the cell divisions lead it into a multicellular embryo and then after a gestation period of about 278 days, the baby is delivered. A new offspring is born.
