<u>Answer</u>: Option A) convergent.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • <em>Convergent evolution</em> is a type of evolution in which the organisms evolve independently and attain <em>similar traits</em> in order to adapt to similar environments even though they are<em> not closely related.</em>
  • The similarity can be in terms of body forms, body color, organs, and adaptations.
  • The structures formed due to convergent evolution are analogous structures that perform a similar function but have a different origin.
  • <em>So green and blue algae show convergent evolution as they look similar but are not closely related.</em>

belka [17]

Answer:

Sensory neurons

Explanation:

Neurons are specialized somatic cells which are responsible of conveying stimuli from the enviroment.

They are made up of three parts; cell body, dendrites and an axon.

Sensory neurons are one of the three types of neurons.

They are responsible of carrying stimuli from external body parts to the central nervous system.

On the other hand, motor neurons carries signals from the brain to other body organs.

The third type is called interneuron, it is located in the brain and nowhere else. It acts as a linkage between other neurons and the brain.

Why the numerical values on the X and Y axis has to be consistent?
natulia [17]

Answer:

Each axis needs a scale to show the range of the data on that axis. The low end of the scale may be zero or a round number value slightly smaller than the smallest data point. The high end of the scale is usually a round number value slightly larger than the largest data point. The scale is measured off in major and minor tick marks. Typically the scale runs from low to high in easily counted multiples like 10s, 50s, 100s, etc. When graphs are compared side-by-side, consider scaling them to the same data range to make comparisons easier.
