The correct option is B.

Leather shoes are made form leather, which is a natural polymer. Leather is usually obtained by tanning the hides of animals, especially cattle. Natural polymers refer to those polymers that are obtained naturally from nature. Examples are wool, silk, leather, keratin, etc. Synthetic polymers on the other hand are man made, they are produced by combination of chemical substances in the industries. Examples are plastics, polyethylene, nylon, etc.

Explain how the result of meiosis and cytokinesis affects inherited traits
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Meiosis is a type of cell division in which a single cell is divided into four daughter cells having half number of chromosome while cytokinesis is the division of cytoplasm.

Meiosis occurs only in sex cells which are responsible for the formation of new organism. Traits are transferred from parents to the offspring through the process of sexual reproduction. In sexual reproduction, sex cells i. e. sperm cells of male fuse with egg cell of female forming a zygote which turns into a new organism and traits are transferred from one generation to another.

Briefly describe the chicken experiment. Why is it relevant?
vesna_86 [32]
<span>The chicken experiment serves to explain how behavioral conditioning may be applied to any species. By identifying an appropriate reward for the subject in question, that subject may be taught any physically possible random behavior. Then, if witnessed, the behavior is able to be learned and mimicked by other members of the same or even different species.</span>

Match the animals with their characteristics.
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Earthworm - have a coelom and a closed circulatory system.

Scallops or clams - has a mantle and an open circulatory system.

Starfish - has an endoskeleton made of calcium-rich plates.

Spider - exhibits the phenomenon of molting.

Explanation:

Earthworm belongs to Phylum Annelida. They are metamerically segmented, triploblastic and bilaterally symmetrical. They have a closed circulatory system and a coelom (true body cavity).

Scallops or clams belong to Phylum Mollusca, the second largest animal phylum. They are coelomate, triploblastic, bilaterally symmetrical organisms having an open circulatory system. They have a calcareous shell covered body with a distinct head, muscular foot, visceral hump and a mantle (soft and spongy layer of skin) over the hump.

Starfish belongs to Phylum Echinodermata, which consists of exclusively free-living marine organisms. They have an endoskeleton made up of calcium carbonate structures.  They are coelomate, triploblastic and have a water vascular system that is used for respiration, locomotion, food capture and transport.

Spiders belong to Phylum Arthropoda. They have chitinous covered segmented bodies, jointed legs and exoskeletons (hard external shells).  Arthropods periodically shed their exoskeletons or shells in order to grow, this process is called molting. They are coelomate, triploblastic, bilaterally symmetrical organisms having an open circulatory system.
