Answer: alternative A.

Explanation: Fixism was a current theory during biology history, and it stated that species were always like they are at the present time, not being able to change during time. Darwin's evolutionary theory, developed at the 19th century, said the opposite: species were able to change and they still do it. One way to prove it was <u>studying fossils and its morfologycal characteristics in order to link them to more recent species</u>, and <u>establish a taxonomical connection between them</u>. The study of fossils is know as paleontology, and it this way it changed the naturalist's views.

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Paleontology studies fossils, which show morphological modifications as compared to their living relatives. Furthermore, fossils may show series of gradual modification or a series of related species or genera. All this is inconsistent with the view that species are perfect or permanent, but rather change is the only constant.

In the female, the development of the "egg" halts during TWO stages, _________ and __________
earnstyle [38]

Answer: The blanks can be correctly filled up with prophase I and metaphase II.

Explanation:

In females, finite number of oocytes are present since birth. The process of oogenesis initiate in embryonic stage only. However, oogonia divide and mature to form primary oocytes. These primary oocytes start meiotic division but arrest in prophase I stage before birth.

After a girl attains puberty, one primary oocyte resumes its division each month during a menstrual cycle. The primary oocyte divides to form secondary oocyte and polar body.

Polar bodies degenerate after completing meiosis II. However, secondary oocyte halts its division again at metaphase II until fertilization takes place. Once fertilization takes place it completes its meiosis II and results into mature ovum and polar body.
