Answer:
Height is affected by multiple pairs of genes on different chromosomes.
Explanation:
The quantitative traits are those whose inheritance pattern is the result of the action of multiple genes that act together with the environment. The distribution of quantitative traits in the population follows a bell-shaped curve, which is referred to as normal distribution or Gaussian distribution. These traits are 'quantitative' because they vary among individuals in the population to produce a continuous range of phenotypic values. Examples of quantitative traits include, among others, metabolic rate, height, and weight.
Ok, I'm not fully sure but answer B sound right, so I think it's right
The forearm of birds, reptiles, and humans illustrates a homologous body structure.
- Similar physical characteristics found in species with a shared origin are known as homologous structures, although these characteristics have entirely different biological purposes.
- The limbs of humans, cats, whales, and bats are examples of homologous structures.
- All of these structures—arm, leg, flipper, and wing—are supported by the same type of bone structure.
- The arms of a person and the wings of a bat are excellent examples of homologous structures. Because both bats and people are mammals, they have a common ancestor.
- Even though they appear considerably different from one another from the outside, a bat's wing and a human arm have remarkably comparable internal bone structures.
- Wings help bats fly, whereas arms enable human interaction with their environment. The wing and the arm also have various purposes.

The widespread, large scale, worlddwide burning of enormous quantities of fossil fuels for their energy, such as coal, oil, and natural gas, could do that, if it ever began and became popular.
Oh, wait ! That"s what we've been doing, for a couple of centuries now !
<span>1. List the adaptation that ALL vertebrates have in common.
The vertebrate is a subphylum of kingdom Animalia. The member of subphylum should have a spine or vertebrae. Therefore, all vertebrates should have vertebrae. All the member should have all the classification above the subphylum like cranium from craniate and notochord from chordate.
2. List all the adaptations that your chordate has (as shown on the cladogram).
The frog is part of Amphibian that shown on green lines. It should have all the organ above its classification such as jaws and paired appendages, lungs(frog can live in the land), four limbs. It also has all the trait of vertebrates that was described above.
3. To which type of chordate is your chordate most closely related?
If your chosen chordates are the frog, then salamander and caecilian would be the most closely related chordates. The reason is that salamanders and caecilians are also amphibians like the frog, which means they have all the trait from amphibians.
4. Why do you think endothermy appears at two points on the cladogram?
Endothermy member is the chordates that have warm blood. There are two chordates that have warm blood in the cladogram, the apes(mammals) and the bird. Since the bird is classified as reptile the but the ape classified as mammals, the cladogram needs to put two </span>endothermy.<span>
5. Amniotic eggs have a waterproof membrane. What type of animals evolved from animals that lay amniotic eggs?
</span>The amniotic eggs will be found on the reptile. The eggs have a waterproof membrane to prevent water comes out of the egg. Water is an important resource and if a high amount of water leak from the egg, the egg will be dried out and die. <span>
6. In what type of habitat do you think the evolution of amniotic eggs helped animals survive? Hint: In what habitat do all animals without amniotic eggs live?
The amniotic eggs help an animal that lives on the dry land to make offspring. All of the animals before reptiles are living in the water and spawn their eggs there so there is no concern about losing water, thus waterproof membrane is not needed. Reptile spawns their eggs on land, so it needs a method to contain the water.</span>
