Answer:

The correct answer is D: "<em>Apes have a Y-5 pattern of cusps, whereas Old World monkeys have a bilophodont pattern</em>".

Explanation:

Apes and old world monkeys only have four kinds of teeth: <em>two incisors, one canine, two premolars, and three molars</em>. This dental formula is 2.1.2.3.

The old world monkeys characterize for having molars with four cusps joined by ridges. They have bilophodont teeth with better crushing, shearing and wearing capabilities than apes.  

Apes´molars have 5 cusps, a Y-shaped space between those raised points, and no transverse lophs. These characteristics are known as the Y-5 pattern.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Coasts are sensitive to sea level rise, changes in the frequency and intensity of storms, increases in precipitation, and warmer ocean temperatures. In addition, rising atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) are causing the oceans to absorb more of the gas and become more acidic.
