Ans.
In a evolutionary or phylogenetic tree, the nodes represent common ancestral species of the descendants, which are represented by the tips of branches, arising from the nodes.
According to the given evolutionary tree, all organisms are evolved from a common ancestor, represented by the last node, which was present about 13 million years ago. Hence, the option 1). is correct.
The second last node is showing a common ancestor to gorilla, chimpanzee, bonobo, and human, which was evolved to different species about 6 million years ago. Hence, the option 3). is correct.
Thus, the correct options are 'option (1). and option (2).'
Answer:
No, they could not interbreed.
Explanation:
When a group of squirrels separate from each other and develop its unique characteristics, this is known as <em><u>speciation</u></em>. One type of speciation is <em><u>allopatic speciation </u></em>in which one squirrel's species separate into two separate groups and isolated from each other because of the physical barrier. This physical barrier can be a mountain range or waterway and makes it <u>impossible to breed with one another</u>. Each squirrels species develop unique genetic characteristics due to change in habitat and genetic variations are transferred to their offspring.
Answer:
Photosynthesis is a process where plants and other organisms convert energy from the sun into a chemical energy that through cellular respiration can be later released in order to fuel the organism's metabolic activities.
The energy which is stored in the form of sugar is broken down into starch entering the mitochondria to produce energy. The energy is stored in the chemical bonds. To obtain the energy, organisms take energy-rich compounds such as glucose and breaks them down to release their energy. The organism traps the released energy and stores it in a form of adenosine triphosphate or ATP.
Explanation:
The continuous process in which hot, molten material coming to the surface of the Earth from the interior forms igneous rocks, which are then broken down by weathering to create soil and sedimentary rocks.
