Biology

Archy [21]3 years ago

In biology, homology is the existence of shared ancestry between a pair of structures, or genes, in different taxa. A common example of homologous structures is the forelimbs of vertebrates, where the wings of bats, the arms of primates, the front flippers of whales and the forelegs of dogs and horses are all derived from the same ancestral tetrapod structure.

An organ or bone that appears in different animals.

Explanation:

A homologous structure is an example of an organ or bone that appears in different animals, underlining anatomical commonalities demonstrating descent from a common ancestor.

Can someone help me with this, my brain cant comprehend.
storchak [24]

Answer:

Baby 1 is the Smith's and baby 2 is the White's

Explanation:

Looking at the table and finding both of the parents blood types, seeing where they intersect at a square you can find what the baby's possible blood types are. Looking at the Smith's, going from both the B blood types you can see that the possible blood types are B or O. The White's blood types are AB and B, looking at the chart you can find the baby's possible blood types are A, B or AB but not O, so baby 1 cannot be their child.

A disease breaks out among sheep in California. A scientist takes blood from the sheep and grows a previously unknown organism.
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Koch's postulates".

Explanation:

The missing options of this question are:

a) spontaneous generation

b) Koch's postulates

c) epidemiology

d) vaccination

The correct answer is option b) "Koch's postulates".

Koch's postulates propose four criteria used to establish that a pathogen is responsible for a disease. In his famous experiments, Robert Koch was able to prove that <em>Bacillus anthracis</em> is the cause of anthrax by injecting to a mouse an isolated culture from the blood of an injected sheep. The scenario established in the question is very similar to anthrax, and the scientific approach to look for the pathogen of the disease is following the principles of Koch's postulates.
