Which statement about analogies is correct?

Biology
1 answer:
drek231 [11]3 years ago
4 0

The correct answer is C. They are derived by similar environmental constraints.

Explanation:

In biology, an analogy refers to two or more types of organism that have structures or behaviors with the same function but do not share a common ancestor which means the structures or behaviors that are similar or identical developed independently. This can be explained due to similar conditions or constraints in the environment that force organisms of different environments to evolve in the same way. This concept differs from homologous traits because in homologous there is not a similarity in function and they involve a common ancestor. Considering this, the correct statement is "they are derived by similar environmental constraints" because they occur due to similar adaptative situations.

Skin cells form new cells in<br> Mitosis only<br> O Meiosis only<br> Both<br> Neither
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Mitosis only

Explanation:

Mitosis and meiosis are both types of cell division. Mitosis allows cells to proliferate for growth and repair. So this is how skin cells form new cells.

Meiosis is a type of cell division specific to reproduction. It forms the gametes, which are the egg and sperm. It generates haploid cells that fuse via fertilization to create a zygote.

forsale [732]

Answer:

The correct answer is D) Rate of fermentation.

Explanation:

Carbohydrates are fermented by yeast to form alcohol by alcoholic fermentation.

       Now if the effects of different carbohydrate molecules are tested on yeast then the yeast will ferment different sugar molecules at different rate.

       As a result the rate of fermentation will be the independent variable of the experiment.

</span>I mean if you look at rRNA which is needed to make polypeptide chains, it is 2/3 protein, and then the helices, ss binding proteins, DNA polymerase and everything in transcription is protein.
