<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The biologists clarify these similarities as a homologous pair. This is based on the principle of convergent evolution.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Convergent evolution</em> is understood by the phenomenon of development of similar organs in different species in different period. Those<em> homologous pair </em>have same structure but can have different function in the different <em>species of organism. </em>

The bone of human arms, wings of the bat and dolphin flippers contain many of same bones which have developed from the same embryo tissue but the function for each is <em>different in different species.</em>

How many calories are provided by a food that contains 29 grams of carbohydrate, 6 grams of protein, and 1 gram of fat?
Andrej [43]
Energy (caloric) value of foods is indicated by calories, which measure the amount of heat that the food releases in the metabolic process. In physiology, it is determined by the energy balance of the organism, ie the heat exchange between the organism and the external environment.
Calories of nutrients:
1 g of protein = 4 kcal (kilocalories)
1 g of fat = 9 kcal
1 g of carbohydrates = 4 kcal
1 g of alcohol = 7 kcal
1 g of organic acid = 3 kcal

According to the table above, we can calculate required value:

29x4 + 6x4  + 1x9= 149 kcal/g

Question 2
Leto [7]

Answer:

These iguanas will go through the speciation process.

Explanation:

Like these iguanas, they were the only ones of their species that managed to reach this island, they will begin to undergo a process of adaptation to the island's environment, which will promote the evolution of their organisms. This evolution will trigger anatomical and even molecular differences that will modify the iguanas, to the point that they can no longer be recognized by the species they represented. Thus generating a new species.
