Answer:
The duplication of a cluster of four Hox genes is equally likely as the duplication of a single Hox gene.
Explanation:
This comes from the definition of the parsimony principle, which is the action of choosing the simplest scientific explanation fitting the given evidence, meaning that all other elements are equal when evaluating the hypothesis. In biology the best hypothesis is the one that requires the fewest evolutionary changes.
Since three independent duplications of an individual Hox gene is in  evolutionary terms, more complex than a single duplication or a cluster, then that hypothesis would be the most parsimonious. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
A) Between nucleotides, the base A will bind to the base G, and the base T will bine to the base C.
Explanation:
bases A and T bind to together, while bases G and C bind together. 
(according to studies)
This is why A is the correct answer.

Criminal evidence is any physical or verbal evidence presented in court to prove a specific crime. Evidence can take different forms and can be used by the accused to prove innocence. Admissible evidence, moreover, is the use of testimony (oral or written such as affidavit), exhibits (physical objects), documentary material or demonstrative evidence ( in the form of representation of an object including photos, x-rays, videotapes, movies, sound recordings, diagrams, forensic animation, maps, drawings, graphs, animation, simulations or models). All are presented before a judge or jury to prove a point or element in a case. In the choices above, six of them can qualify as individual evidence except numbers 3. Number 8, however, is questionable since it has incomplete description as to where and how is the paint was chipped. 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
B. Stable ecosystems
Explanation:
The main cause of the biodiversity experienced in rain forests is largely due to the stable ecosystems that they enjoy. 
A stable ecosystem is a sustainable one that does not change too much over the course of time. 
Most organisms and the diverse life forms are easily nourished by the provisions made available by nature in such regions. 
- Most rain forest receives a large amount of solar radiation and energy all year round as the sun is directly overhead here. 
- This suggests that the producers have enough energy to cater for their own need and that of the organisms there in. 
- The consumers and decomposers have sufficient food available all year round. 
- This coupled with other factors whereby organisms have specially adapted to environmental conditions makes a rain forest very biodiverse with life forms. 
- An unstable ecosystem cannot be biodiverse
