Answer:
A. These homologous structures indicate that these four organisms all share a common ancestor.
Explanation:
Homologous structures mean the organs will have similar structure, but not necessarily function (human arm vs whale's flipper). While analogous structures are similar in function but not structure (wings of an airplane vs wings of a bird). Since the question states that they are similar in skeletal structure, we know they must be homologous structures, thereby eliminating B and C. D is not a choice because the question does not provide anything about the order of evolution. Therefore the answer is A. These homologous structures indicate that these four organisms all share a common ancestor.
Answer:
Binomial nomenclature is the naming system developed by Carolus Linnaeus. In this system, latin language was used because it is a dead language which cannot be spoken by people in the world. In binomial nomenclature, two names are used. One for genus and the second for specie. For example, Rana tigrina is the scientific name of frog. In this name rana is genus and tigrina is specie.
I also believe the answer is A.
The right answer is C
This process is called anaerobic respiration. It doesn't need dioxygen to occur (it can happen with or without O2).
Anaerobic respiration is a mechanism in which electrons pass through a chain of transporters whose final acceptor is a mineral substance other than oxygen, unlike aerobic respiration where the final acceptor is dioxygen. The final acceptor may be the nitrate ion (as in the case of Pseudomonas), carbon dioxyde or the sulfate ion.
Some bacteria (Pseudomonas) are able, anaerobically, to reduce nitrates to nitrites and then, depending on the case, to dinitrogen (with the enzyme Nitrate reductase A).
NO3- ==> NO2- ==> N2.
Carrying capacity is the maximum amount of organisms a certain ecosystem can sustain with the resources available in a given ecosystem.
Factors that could either increase or decrease the K, carry capacity, would be: drastic weather causing depletion of resources, decreases in competition, etc.
