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.

Which statements correct
sladkih [1.3K]
The correct answer is C. Here's why: 

Choice A is illogical. A single experiment does not confirm a theory as true. Multiple successful trials are needed for one to even consider a hypothesis to be accepted as a theory. 

Choice B is wrong. If a scientist finds a new way to test a hypothesis, experimental methods do change. Note that when there are additional ways to test a hypothesis, a scientist should test it with additional methods. 

Choice D is incorrect. If someone finds a way to test a new hypothesis, it would not be made into law since there is more information regarding the theory. This means that it would remain a theory until one can prove that it can't be tested using different methods.

Leto [7]

Answer:

C. The village probably cannot afford a desalination plant.

Explanation:

Desalination may be defined as treating water to make it consumable for human use and drinking purposes.

A desalinated plant separates the saline or salt water in two streams. One is fresh water stream for drinking and farming and the other contains dissolved salts.  

The setting up of a desalinated plant is very demanding and costly and the running cost is also huge. It takes a lot of energy and resources to set up and run a desalinated plant.  

Thus in the context, the village would not be  able to afford a desalination plant.
