What three types of evidence allows us to determine whether organisms shared a common ancestor?

Biology

Anika [276]4 years ago

The evidence of common ancestry is based on study of three   parameters;   fossils record, homologies of various organisms, and study of biogeography. Fossils record   determines the similarity and differences of bones as well as shells of different organisms   over a given period of time.   On the other hand, studying of homologies involves assessment of mitochondrial DNA and other proteins with an aim of finding similarity from one organism to another.  Finally, Biogeography is the assessment of how continental drift might have separated organisms which had got common ancestry and they were living together.

What is the major difference in the production of transgenic bacteria, plants, and animals?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Transgenic animals require a host to grow but transgenic bacteria and plants do not require host.

Explanation:

Transgenic organisms are the organisms in which foreign genetic material are introduced so that the transgenic organism can get some particular traits and characteristic.

The process of producing transgenic animals is different from producing transgenic plant and transgenic animals because in transgenic animals DNA from a cell is transferred into an enucleated oocyte.  

Then this oocyte is transferred to the oviduct of a surrogate mother to raise the genetically modifies embryo but in plant and microbe, no host is required.

Answer:

11. Something killed 90 percent of the planet's species approximately 250 million years ago, near the end of the Permian epoch. In the seas, just about 5% of animal species survived.

12. water bears, also known as tardigrades, are tough organisms that can withstand high temperatures.

13. DNA is found in every cell of every living creature, practically every cell in a multicellular organism has all of the DNA it needs.

14.  Titan features a low-temperature version of Earth's water cycle, with liquid on the surface that evaporates, creates clouds, and then condenses to fall as rain—but the liquid is a mix of methane, ethane, and a trace of other hydrocarbons on Titan.

15.  The Earth could not even support life at first. The atmosphere was devoid of oxygen, and the Earth's surface was scorching hot. The Earth gradually transformed over millions of years, allowing plants and animals to begin to grow. The Earth was then further altered by living organisms.
