Answer:

The first thing to look at would be type of symmetry the organism exhibits. If it is asymmetrical then it would be a sponge and the discovery could stop right there. If not, other characteristics need to be investigated.

Knowing the type of body cavity this organism has would be helpful.

It would also be beneficial to know what type of skeleton (endo or exo) this organism has and what its appendages look like.

Finally, the type of digestive tract and the presence or absence of a head would help to determine what this creature is.

Answer:

A lunar eclipse can only occur when there is a full moon.

Explanation:

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon, Earth and Sun are aligned on a straight line. This alignment completely blocks the sunlight and moon is under the shadow of Earth. In this phase, moon often look red because of reflection of infrared radiations. This happens only where there is a full moon.

It is not possible to occur moon eclipse in any phase because if sunlight would reach the moon surface directly, it is not a moon eclipse Further, lunar eclipse can last upto a few hours because the shadow of Earth is greater because of its size compared to the moon's size and it takes a while until moon is completely out of that shadow. Lastly, a lunar eclipse doesn't create an eerie color in the sky rather a red color due to infrared radiations.

Answer;

This increase in set-point temperature triggers increased muscle contractions and causes a feeling of cold.

During gamete formation, each allele of a pair for a gene moves to separate gametes. Which principle is indicative of this state
TiliK225 [7]
Think about the actual physical process happening in the cell - the allele (or versions of a gene) are literally physical pieces of DNA strung together into chromosomes. And as the cell divides to form gametes, those chromosomes randomly assort themselves into the two new cells (conditional that each new cell gets one copy of each chromosome, in the case of gametes)...<span>
