Answer:

The correct answer is convergent evolution.

Explanation:

The wings of bats, butterflies, and most birds are the example of analogous structure. Analogous structures are the structures which are similar in appearance and function but have separate evolutionary origin.

They are similar superficially because they experienced a natural selection that evolved them to have that shape which helps them to fly. Analogous structures are produced due to convergent evolution.  

Convergent evolution describes the presence of the same trait in unrelated species. Therefore the correct answer is convergent evolution.

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

It allows them to save energy

Explanation:

Hibernation is a behavioral adaptation that involves physiological changes to survive during wither months. These physiological changes can include a decrease in body temperature, respiratory/heart rate and metabolism. The main purpose for which animals enter hibernation is to conserve energy, thereby surviving adverse climatic conditions and/or periods when food is scarce. Some examples of true hibernators (i.e., animals that enter into a state of minimal activity) include bats, hedgehogs, allies, squirrels, marmots, etc.

Why are finches important to Darwin's idea?
marissa [1.9K]
It helps to give solid evidence of natural selection. The idea is that there are a number of finches in the Galapagos Islands. These birds vary slightly in appearance, in the function of their beaks and in size. Two species can eventually alter themselves because of the environmental conditions they live in. Some traits will be passed on or developed in one group and not in the other or vica versa. These finches are remarkable in that it did not take long for the changes to take place. It is probably one of the strongest reasons for believing in natural selection, because only those birds who could adapt to change could easily pass on these advantages to their offspring. The relatively short period of time to enact these changes is what makes the this example  so attractive.

Which reason best explains why the cell membrane helps the cell maintain homeostasis
Liula [17]

Answer:

Homeostasis involves maintaining a balance of several factors that make a cell healthy.

Explanation:

The cell membrane is a lipid bilayer that prevents that passage of water and ions. This allows cells to maintain a higher concentration of sodium ions out the outside of the cell.
