Answer: C.) Cladistics is based purely on the shared characters between organisms and their ranking in evolutionary history.

 

Explanation:

Phylogeny is the evolutionary science which derives a relationship among the ancient species with their descendants based upon common genetic, physiological and morphological characteristics. Cladistics represent the study of a group of organisms which exhibit a common ancestor. A clade includes organisms having a common ancestors and exhibit similar traits in them. A clade is sufficient to include the organisms in a phylogenic tree based upon their evolutionary history.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C

Explanation:

Cladistics is the approach used to classify the organism based on their shared characters on the basis of which the closely related organisms are grouped together.

The evolutionary biologist studies the physiological, genealogical, molecular and morphological characters on the basis of which the phylogenetic trees are constructed. In phylogenetic trees, the organisms are arranged according to their evolutionary history.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The correct answer is - option D. fermentation.

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway in which metabolize the sugar and produce pyruvate molecule or lactic acid and produce the energy in the form of ATP and NADH.

Glycolysis is an example of the fermentation as fermentation is also a metabolic pathway in which an organism turns glucose into the lactic acid or the alcohol to produce energy for electron transfer system.

When comparing genomes from different species, scientists are often interested in the genome density, or the number of genes per
Setler79 [48]

The human genome density ranges between 12-15 genes per Megabase pairs. This is because humans have approximately 2000 genes in a total of approximately 3 billion base pairs. However, some primitive organisms have an even larger gene density than humans. An example is bacteria with gene densities ranging between 100 – 500 genes/Mb. Gene density is therefore not a good characteristic in determining the complexity of an organism.
