Answer:
Answer is explained below;
Explanation:
Mercury is a liquid metal that is released into the environment by both natural processes such as volcanic activity, weathering of rocks, etc and human activities such as waste materials from factories. The mercury that reaches the ocean and other water sources is converted into methylmercury by bacteria. Methylmercury is a neurotoxin that interferes with the nervous system and is easily absorbed by the human body.
The methylmercury is taken up by planktons. Small fishes consume large quantities of plankton. Tilapia is a small, short-lived freshwater fish. The methylmercury level in tilapia is lower than that of other fish. When large, long-living predatory fishes such as tuna, shark, king mackerel, swordfish, etc consume many smaller fish with low mercury levels, this causes accumulation of methylmercury at extremely high levels in their tissues over time i.e., the amount of mercury in such bigger fish biomagnifies.
So large, long-lived predators like swordfish and shark often have the highest methyl mercury levels than a small, short-lived tilapia.
The correct answer is A.

Answer:
Answer
Explanation:
All living things are composed of cells.
Cells are the basic units of structure and function for living things.
All cells come from pre-existing cells. Also, organisms grow by “adding on more cells” NOT by increasing the size of their cells.
Answer:
I would write "terrestrial/lives on land during all life stages" between the frog and pigeon branches.
Explanation:
Jaw evolution has started with fish, so i'd place that before the perch, evolution of four limbs is next and I would plate it between the perch and the frog. Evolution of an egg has ensured that organisms remain terrestrial during all stages of life and don't need to rely on water to lay their eggs. So I would place that between the frog and the pigeon. True mammary glands and true hair, as we know it formed on mammals so i'd place that between the pigeon and the rats (although synapsids evolved similar structures long before birds even existed). And lastly, I would place "walking on two legs" between rats and human branches. Because our ancestors evolved bipedalism relatively late.
