Members of Superclass Agnatha lack what feature

English
1 answer:
Elanso [62]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Agnatha (Ancient Greek is a superclass of jawless fish in the phylum Chordata, subphylum Vertebrata, consisting of both present (cyclostomes) and extinct (conodonts and ostracoderms) species. The group is sister to all vertebrates with jaws, known as gnathostomes.

Recent molecular data, both from as well as embryological data[8] strongly supports the hypothesis that living agnathans, the cyclostomes, are monophyletic.

The oldest fossil agnathans appeared in the Cambrian, and two groups still survive today: the lampreys and the hagfish, comprising about 120 species in total. Hagfish are considered members of the subphylum Vertebrata, because they secondarily lost vertebrae; before this event was inferred from molecular and developmental data, the group Craniata was created by Linnaeus (and is still sometimes used as a strictly morphological descriptor) to reference hagfish plus vertebrates. In addition to the absence of jaws, modern agnathans are characterised by absence of paired fins; the presence of a notochord both in larvae and adults; and seven or more paired gill pouches. Lampreys have a light sensitive pineal eye (homologous to the pineal gland in mammals). All living and most extinct Agnatha do not have an identifiable stomach or any appendages. Fertilization and development are both external. There is no parental care in the Agnatha class. The Agnatha are ectothermic or cold blooded, with a cartilaginous skeleton, and the heart contains 2 chambers.

While a few scientists still regard the living agnathans as only superficially similar, and argue that many of these similarities are probably shared basal characteristics of ancient vertebrates, recent classification clearly place hagfish (the Myxini or Hyperotreti) with the lampreys (Hyperoartia) as being more closely related to each other than either is to the jawed fishes.

How could sentence 11 be revised to better transition to sentence 12 and describe what the campground was like when the narrator
algol [13]

Answer:

Better transition of the sentence is:

Option B: When we got to our campground, it was only mid-morning, but the campsites were already filling up fast.

Explanation:

Option B clearly explains that it was mid morning when they reached the campground but campsites were filling up fast.

Option A is incorrect as it says that people were trying to grab campsites when they reached. Option C says that they should have left earlier, so it is incorrect. Option D also doesn't mention about the early filling up of the camp. Thus, of all the options, the better transition will be statement B.
