a. parsimony; simplest; fewest
When selecting among multiple possible phylogenetic trees that fit our data, we commonly use the principle of <u>parsimony</u>, which means we choose the <u>simplest</u> possible hypothesis. In phylogenetic analysis, that means selecting the tree that represents the <u>fewest</u> evolutionary changes or mutations.
Explanation:
Phylogeny describes the evolutionary history of on organism or group of organisms.
A phylogenetic tree structure is used to describe the relationship between various organisms which have originated from common ancestors.
The Principle of Parsimony is best applied while constructing phylogenetic tree.
This principle emphasizes on simple observations on a phylogeny which requires only few changes or variations which explain for the difference between the phylogenic sequences.
This tree structure will only have few specific genetic variations or mutations or evolutionary changes which took place through new appearance of a trait or disappearance of an existing trait.
Different traits come from the chromosomes of both parents
Answer:
I think it is C but I'm not 100% sure
The hypothesis that all modern humans descended from an African lineage is supported by the mitochondrial DNA evidence. The Eve hypothesis is the hypothesis that is based on the study of mirtochodrial DNA; that modern humans have a common female ancestor who lived in Africa around 200,000 years ago. It is also called African Eve hypothesis.
The best answer is B (semi permeable)
The cell membrane of a red blood cell is semi permeable membrane. This is a type of biological membrane that will allow certain molecules or ions to pass through while barring others.
Red blood cells have very thin membranes that allow oxygen diffuse through quickly. They are also permeable to water and osmosis across the membrane occurs very rapidly. In the body, they are bathed in isotonic plasma in which case water movement into the cell is equal to water movement out of the cell and so the cells remain intact.
