Answer:

Some of Carl Linnaeus' classifications of organisms were incorrect because he classified them based off of appearances and actions instead of actual relationships. For instance, bats were classified as birds because they flew, and whales were classified as fish because they had fins and swam underwater.The mere fact that some of his classifications were off, however, does not reduce the marked effect that it had on the advancement of scientific thought in the present world. His findings have greatly influenced the modern classification system in many ways.

Explanation:

Carl Linnaeus classified organisms on the basis of physical features. In his time, this was accepted. As time went on, he was stated incorrectly with the aid of new discoveries. However, he did facilitate the scientific community in a different way. He classified organisms with their common ancestors.

- hope this helps ✌

If t=talk and t= short what will be the physical appearance of the offspring in the cross
qwelly [4]

Answer:

If T=tall and t=short, what will be the physical appearance of the offspring in the cross?

Explanation:

It looks like your question is incomplete, so I'll try to fill in the blanks.

The offspring will depend on the parents.  Each parent will need two alleles, so each parent would have to be TT (tall), Tt (tall) or tt (short--this is the only way to have a short individual).

Here are all the possible crosses:

TT X TT  = 100% TT (all tall)

TT X Tt = 50% TT, 50% Tt (all tall)

TT X tt = 100% Tt (all tall)

Tt X Tt = 25% TT (tall), 50% Tt (tall), 25% tt (short)

tt X tt = 100% tt (short)

Note that if there is a T present in the genotype (TT or Tt), that individual will be tall.  The only way to produce short offspring is for the both parents to have a copy of the short allele (t).

Explain the importance of covalent bonds in four macromolecules
nikitadnepr [17]

Covalent bonds is important in four macromolecules such as proteins (polymers of amino acids), nucleic acids (polymers of nucleotides), carbohydrates (polymers of sugars) and lipids (with a variety of modular constituents) because they served as a basic structure of macromolecules.

 In addition, the resulting covalent bond is a result of sharing a pair of electrons, one from each atom or molecular units.
