The answer is <span>Fish are ectothermic and lay eggs to reproduce, while mammals are endothermic and give live birth to offspring.

Through the elimination process:
</span><span>* Fish are <u>invertebrates</u> and have scales and paired fins, while mammals are vertebrates and have fur or hair. - Fish are vertebrates!
</span><span>* Fish are <u>endothermic</u> and have gills, while mammals are <u>ectothermic</u> and have lungs. - Fish are ectothermic (cold-blooded), and mammals are endothermic (warm-blooded)!
</span>* <span>Fish have streamlined bodies and <u>three-chambered hearts</u>, while mammals are <u>bipedal</u> and have four-chambered hearts. - Fish have four chambered hearts and not all mammals are bipedal!

This leaves choice: </span><span>Fish are ectothermic and lay eggs to reproduce, while mammals are endothermic and give live birth to offspring. All of this is true, but it should be taken into consideration that some fish give live birth and some mammals lay eggs, but this is the most possible choice among all mentioned.</span>

Morgarella [4.7K]

Assuming that this question makes reference to the survivability of the two moth variations, we can confirm that the brown-colored moth will be better adapted to survive in the winter months.

<h3>Why are the brown moths more likely to survive?</h3>

This has to do with their ability to better hide from predators. As described in the question, their primary predator are birds that hunt them while resting on the tree bark. This means that the white-colored moths will stand out against the dark tree bark and be easier prey for the birds. This will eventually lead to all the moths in the area being brown-colored through the process of natural selection.  

Therefore, we can confirm that the brown-colored moth will be better adapted to survive in the winter months due to their ability to hide from predators.

What is the process by which two haploid cells (1n) combine to form a diploid cell (2n)?
Gnom [1K]

1 diploid cell (2n) cell becomes 4 haploid (n) germ cells (eggs or sperm). During meiosis, chromosomes are replicated once in S phase (just like mitosis), but the cell divides twice. ... The result: chromosomes after meiosis are genetically unique and have combinations of DNA derived from both parents.

Answer:

c. Spindle fibers

Explanation:

In eukaryotic cells, the centrioles are small sets of microtubules composed of tubulin proteins. Moreover, in animal cells, a centrosome is an organelle localized near the nucleus which contains a pair of centrioles. These organelles (centrosomes) are referred to as microtubule-organizing centers. During Anaphase, centrioles move to opposite sides in the cell in order to organize the spindle fibers and separate the chromosomes during cell division.
