Answer:

The answer is A) Homologous structures

Explanation:

Homologous Structures:

  • Homologous structures are anatomical features in an organism that are structurally and functionally diverse but they originate from a single common ancestor.
  • Homologous structures possess a similar basic internal structure but can have entirely different morphology and function.
  • For example, the wings of a bat and a human's arm have the same internal structure but they have different functions.
  • Vestigial structures are evolutionary remnants that no longer serve a purpose in modern forms or descendants of the original organism.
  • Inherited and developmental are out of context in terms of evolutionary relationships.

Helps organisms transport nutrients.<br> a.<br> soil<br> b. sap<br> C. water<br> d wind
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

C. Water

Explanation:

The cells in our bodies are full of water. The excellent ability of water to dissolve so many substances allows our cells to use valuable nutrients, minerals, and chemicals in biological processes. Water's "stickiness" (from surface tension) plays a part in our body's ability to transport these materials all through ourselves.

Many of the hardest rocks are metamorphic rocks. Why do you think metamorphic rocks are harder than sedimentary rocks?
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Metamorphic rocks are almost always harder than sedimentary rocks. They are generally as hard and sometimes harder than igneous rocks. They form the roots of many mountain chains and are exposed to the surface after the softer outer layers of rocks are eroded away.  

Because their mineral grains grew together tightly during metamorphism, they're generally strong rocks.

Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) dissolved in the water, releasing carbon dioxide. Why was it important to add the baking soda?
Slav-nsk [51]
The reaction of sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and acetic acid (vinegar) produces carbon dioxide gas, water and sodium acetate (soluble in water). The carbon dioxide gas can originally be seen as bubbles in the solution, but will quickly be released from the solution.
