The correct answer is - She observed a fossil with skeletal structures similar to certain modern organisms.

The scientists was able to come to the conclusion that certain organisms have common ancestor because she was able to study and see the skeletal structures of extinct species and compare them with modern day species, and they had a big resemblance.

The skeletal structure is something that needs a lot of time to change, millions of years. Even then, the basics of the structure will be the same, with the further modifications in place on top of it. It is something that is very useful when comparing extinct species and modern day species, as it can give a nice clue about their connection and common ancestry.

The cats for example, the modern day ones and the first ones that appeared, have almost the same bone structure, where even a trained eye finds it hard to find a difference, and that is a very nice clue about tracing the ancestry.

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Part A....B

Part B....C

Explanation:

It should be understood that Mice are always first used to clinical test especially for drugs or other things that are supposed to be for human use, this is because Mice and human genetic disorders have arisen from conserved and related evolutionary processes. Therefore, when the clinical trial or test produces a positive result in the Mice, it is almost certain that the result will be the same in human.

Now in part B. When the result result is different, it might be because of the differences in anatomy and physiology might hide or change development and symptoms of disease. And that is the reason why, the result of a particular drug differs from person to person.

Chondroblasts ________. Select one: a. never lose their ability to divide b. within the cartilage divide and secrete new matrix
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer: b - Chondroblasts within the cartilage divide and secrete new matrix

Explanation: Chondroblasts are derived from two sources; mesenchymal cells within the center of chondrification and chondrogenic cells of the inner cellular layer of the perichondrium (coverings that lie over most cartilage).

At the chondrification centers, the cartilage forming cells (Chondroblasts) begin to secrete the components of extracellular matrix of cartilage. As the amount of matrix increases, the Chondroblasts become separated from each other and they are located in small cavity within the matrix called lacunae.

Concurrently, the cells differentiate into matured cartilage cells called chondrocytes.

What effect might obesity have on blood pressure? Does obesity alone cause a person to be at risk for high blood pressure? What
Ugo [173]

Answer:

obesity increases blood pressure

Explanation:

This is because the high fat percentage in the body has lead to a build up of fat on the inside of arteries and this makes them thinner. the heart has to pump harder to get the blood around the body and through these, now smaller arteries. therefore yes having diabetes does increase blood pressure.

other factors which increase blood pressure are high stress levels, smoking, anxiety.
