Theory #1 -Based on the discovery of a 240-million-year-old fossil archosaur, paleontologists theorize that dinosaurs split off

early from the crocodile family tree. The journal Nature describes Asilisaurus kongwe as a dog-sized, plant-eating dinosaur precursor. Asilisaurus lived during the Triassic period, when crocodile-like beasts ruled the Earth, with dinosaurs becoming dominant some 35 million years later.
Theory #2 - Almost 20 years of research on the morphology of birds and dinosaurs support a different theory: that birds may have had an ancient common ancestor with dinosaurs, but they evolved separately on their own path and after millions of years, birds also gave rise to the raptors. Small animals such as velociraptors, that have generally been thought to be dinosaurs, are more likely flightless birds according to this theory.
Compare the two theories regarding the evolution of dinosaurs and then consider the cladogram above. Although the two theories differ on the evolutionary path of dinosaurs, they agree that
A) dinosaurs, reptiles, and birds had a common ancestor.
B) dinosaurs evolved much later than birds or reptiles.
C) the branch containing dinosaurs evolved before either reptiles or birds.
D) dinosaurs should be on the same main branch as snakes, lizards and crocodiles.

nikklg [1K]

<u>ANSWER:</u>

The correct order is-  Zygote, Blastula, Gastrula, Fetus.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • The embryo develops from the zygote which is formed when the gametes fuse in the process of "fertilization".
  • The zygote undergoes cell division to form blastula which is a "ball of cells".
  • Gastrula leads to the rearrangement of cells of the blastula into three layers that differentiate into different systems of organ.
  • The last stage is the fetus which then develops into a baby.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Platelets would release signals to stimulate the production of more platelets

Explanation:

Positive feedback mechanism is one of the two types of feedback mechanisms (other being negative feedback mechanism) in which the products of a process stimulates more of that product to be synthesized or produced. In other words, the result of a reaction increases the secretion of more results.

In this case where the injured tissue of a cut initially releases chemical signals into the bloodstream. These chemicals signal platelets to be attracted to the injured area. However, if this is a positive feedback mechanism as explained above, Platelets would release signals to stimulate the production of more platelets.
