The ancestors of modern-day fish were vertebrate chordates. Vertebrate chordates are believed to have evolved from invertebrate

chordates, which were similar to modern-day tunicates.
What change must have occurred during the evolution from invertebrate chordates to vertebrate chordates?

A.
A backbone evolved to enclose the spinal cord, which develops from the dorsal nerve cord.
B.
An endoskeleton evolved to enclose the dorsal nerve cord, which develops from the notochord.
C.
An endoskeleton evolved to enclose the spinal cord, which develops from the notochord.
D.
A backbone evolved to enclose the notochord, which develops from the spinal cord.

Answer:

The correct answer is option B, that is, an endoskeleton evolved to enclose the dorsal nerve cord, which develops from the notochord.

Explanation:

It has been discovered that the ancestors of the modern-day fish were vertebrate chordates. The vertebrate chordates are considered to have evolved from the invertebrate chordates that are identical to the present day tunicates. It has been found that in vertebrates the endoskeleton has evolved to encompass the dorsal nerve cord that has been developed from the notochord (a characteristic of invertebrates).

Don’t worry this is pretty easy :)

The answer is -
50% recessive alleles
50% dominate alleles

explication- find out what alleles you’re working with (heterogeneous and homogeneous)
[heterogeneous is 1 dominant and 1 recessive- homogeneous is 2 of the same alleles they can be dominant or recessive]
We’re working with a parent with heterogeneous and another parent with recessive homogeneous.

draw a allele chart
__
|_|_|
|_|_|
they look like this and take your first parents alleles and put them at the top

L s
_ _
|_|_|
|_|_|

it should look like this, then take your parent with both recessive and put them vertical to the box

L s
_ _
s |_|_|
s |_|_|

it should look like this, now you drag one letter down and one letter across for each box

L s
__ __
s|Ls|ss |
s|Ls|ss |

it’s should look like this when they’re done, i think you’re doing a grade below me in biology so the ratio should be 50/50 for both phenotype and genotype.

The best answer would probably be observation because a hypothesis and theory is not always reliable. an observation describes what IS happening during the experiment.
