Hi there,

How is the earthworm adapted to its feeding habits?

Well a earthworms are tube shaped, some worms such as segmented worms can be found in soil.They are there to stay moist and to feed on organic matter.

So an earthworm's digestive tract is laid out straight from the oral orifice to the anus. The parts of the digestive tract regulate or absorb the nutrients from every meal.

Hope this helps!

I used to have a worm farm myself, it was really cool to see really up close on how worms live and how they feed on organic matter in the soil.

Why is a parent usually a better match for transplanted tissue to a donor than a random individual of the same species?

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer: For decreased chances of rejection

Explanation:

The three higly polymorphic MHC 1 genes in human beings are HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-C.

These determine the compatibility of the organ or tissue in the recipient's body each by the help of many alleles that segregates in a population.

There are very less chances that a random chosen donor will match the a recipient six allele genotype.

This is the reason parent may be the best donor for organ transplantation or tissue transplantation.

If organisms A, B, and C belong to the same class but to different orders and if organisms D, E, and F belong to the same order

zalisa [80]

Answer:

Any combination of D, E and F

Explanation:

Since A, B, and C belong to different orders, and D, E and F belong to the same order, the latter are more closely related and thus are expected to show a greater degree of structural homology. They are closer to their common ancestor than A, B and C.
