What a vestigial structure? How does it support evolution?

Biology

atroni [7]4 years ago
5 0
A vestigial structure is a structure that kind-of just "hangs out" in our bodies. We don't really need it, yet it is there. So, why is it there??? We probably needed it, for example, when we needed to digest plants. (Appendix) Some say that the appendix was used for digesting plants and berries, but it is really just speculation. We "evolved" to not need the appendix. 
Here are some other vestigial examples: wisdom teeth, tail bone, pelvic bone in a snake, and wings on a flightless bird. 
I hope this helped, if it did not let me know!!
I hope you have a fantastical day!!!XD

In your OWN words, describe the cardiac cycle
sweet [91]

Answer:

The cardiac cycle is defined as a sequence of alternating contraction and relaxation of the atria and ventricles in order to pump blood throughout the body. ... In other words, when the atria are in diastole, the ventricles are in systole and vice versa.The cardiac cycle describes all the activities of the heart through one complete heartbeat—that is, through one contraction and relaxation of both the atria and ventricles. ... The volume of the ventricles remains unchanged (isovolumetric) during this period.

A marine ecologist has constructed the conceptual model shown in the diagram. Which prediction can be made from using this model
kari74 [83]

Hello. This question is incomplete. You forgot to put the diagram and answer options.

The diagram is in the figure attached below and the answer options are:

Where the tertiary consumers get their energy

How often primary producers are able to reproduce

When bacteria and fungi initiate the process of decomposition

 Whether other secondary consumers are present

Answer:

Where the tertiary consumers get their energy

Explanation:

The diagram establishes the visualization of a food network where it is possible to visualize all the relationships between predators and game, in addition to being possible to observe the relationships between each trophy within a food chain.

With this, it is possible to determine all the ways that tertiary consumers are able to obtain energy and observe how that energy reached them.
