This phylogenetic tree shows how scientists believe the Danes, Chinese, and Tibetans are related based on the analysis of many g

enes. Use the data about the EPAS1 alleles to add information to the tree. (Assume that there is no interbreeding between the different populations after the lineages split.) Labels can be used once or more than once.

Answer:

Phylogenetic trees can be described as diagrams which represents the evolutionary histories of organisms. The organisms that share more common traits or functions are more closer to one another in the diagram.

The phylogenetic tree in the above diagram shows that the ancestors of Danes, Chinese and Tibetans carried the regular EPAS1 alleles.

According to the tree, the Chinese are more closer to the Tibetans as they carry the Tibetan EPAS1 alleles which the Danes do not carry.

1. Why does the moon go through Phases?
liq [111]

Explanation:

1.The Moon has phases because it orbits Earth, which causes the portion we see illuminated to change. The Moon takes 27.3 days to orbit Earth, but the lunar phase cycle (from new Moon to new Moon) is 29.5 days. The Moon spends the extra 2.2 days "catching up" because Earth travels about 45 million miles around the Sun during the time the Moon completes one orbit around Earth.

2.

An eclipse is the result of the total or partial masking of a celestial body by another along an observer's line of sight. Solar eclipses result from the Moon blocking the Sun relative to the Earth; thus Earth, Moon and Sun all lie on a line. Lunar eclipses work the same way in a different order: Moon, Earth and Sun all on a line. In this case the Earth's shadow hides the Moon from view.Lunar and solar eclipses occur with about equal frequency. Lunar eclipses are more widely visible because Earth casts a much larger shadow on the Moon during a lunar eclipse than the Moon casts on Earth during a solar eclipse. As a result, you are more likely to see a lunar eclipse than a solar eclipse.

3.Why Do We have Seasons?

As the earth spins on its axis, producing night and day, it also moves about the sun in an elliptical (elongated circle) orbit that requires about 365 1/4 days to complete. The earth's spin axis is tilted with respect to its orbital plane. This is what causes the seasons. When the earth's axis points towards the sun, it is summer for that hemisphere. When the earth's axis points away, winter can be expected. Since the tilt of the axis is 23 1/2 degrees, the North Pole never points directly at the Sun, but on the summer solstice it points as close as it can, and on the winter solstice as far as it can.

Why Do the Seasons Change on Earth?

Two things cause the seasons to change. First, the Earth moves around the Sun. Second, the Earth has a tilted axis of rotation.

The Earth spins around an axis. This imaginary line extends from the South Pole to the North Pole. But the Earth’s axis is not vertical. It’s actually tilted at an angle of 23.5°. The planet is always tilted in the same direction as it orbits the Sun.

Which relationship can be determined from this dichotomous key?
Ber [7]

A dichotomous key is defined as a biological tool for identifying unknown organisms to a particular taxonomic level. It is constructed with many levels and series of couplets.

So, by observing the given dichotomous key, it is concluded that the correct answer is Option A- Organism X and Z have at least one observable trait in common in this dichotomous key.
