The mantle is the majority-solid core of the interior of the Earth. The mantle lies between the dense, super-heated core of Earth, and the crust, its thin outer layer. The mantle is about 2,900 kilometers (1,802 miles) thick and comprises a whopping 84 per cent of the total volume of Earth.

Leviafan [203]

There are no choices but the reason why we tend to value friends as we grow older is because these are bonds that we create on our own.  These are people who have been there for us throughout our lives. They are our link with the outside world since they are not our family members.  The longer we are friends with others, the deeper that bond becomes.

Use the cladogram to explain why you think modern whales have very small but useless pelvic bones. 3.
aev [14]

Modern day whale species, have very small pelvic bones in comparison to their body size, and also they are useless. This is because this bones in the whale body are remnants from the time when their ancestors were land dwelling creatures, thus they had legs as the typical land mammal has. But during their evolution, as their ancestors were starting to adapt more to the water, the legs started to disappear, but the bones inside of the body remained, even though they were of not use. Even though millions of years had passed since this bone is useless, it still exists, and the reason for that is that there hasn't been any evolutionary pressure for it to not exist, since it is not causing any disadvantage into the movement and lifestyle of the whales.
