Answer:

     The right answer to this question is option D. A genetic code determines the physical traits of the body.

Explanation:

     What is known about the genetic code is that we have 4 different kinds of nucleotides, thymine, adenine, guanine and cytosine. There are more of them, but let's rely on these four for this question. These 4 nucleotides are the same on every living being on earth, what really changes is how they're organized on the protein making process. These proteins are going to be made based on the genetic code.

      After the explanation above, we can be sure that the genetic code determines physical traits of the body, and that's why every living being on earth have something in common, but at the same time, are not equal too.

There are common elements for humans genetic codes, so, in a sense, they have exactly the same type of units defining it, yet the combination of thrm can determine, among others, the phisical characteristics of a person

aniked [119]
The nurse could find an 86-106 systolic and 42-63 diastolic pressure in toddlers. Though taking a toddler's blood pressure is infinitely harder compared to adults, their blood pressure is often influenced by many factors because they are growing up. Generally, boys' blood pressure will be higher than the girls'. Those taller kids will have a more normal blood pressure than the shorter ones. Age and sex affect the blood pressure of toddlers.

gogolik [260]

• Homologous structures: Both Ostriches have wings similar in form to those of their ancestors, but that do not allow the birds to fly.

Homologous structures are those that have structural similarities but are different in function. For example, if we look at the anatomical structure of a bird’s wing, it is very similar in structure with a human arm. However, over the course of time they have evolved to perform different functions.

• Vestigial structures: The inner ear bones of mammals have evolved from bones that form the jaws of reptiles.  

Vestigiality refers to the process in which some structure lose their function over the course of evolution in some specie but they are functionally normal in other species.  Such a structure is the inner ear bones of mammals which donot perform an important function in mammals but do perform in reptiles.

• DNA sequence data: Both Genes involved in RNA replication are conserved among bacteria and animals, suggesting a common evolutionary origin.

The sequencing of genetic data is an excellent method of finding the evolutionary histories and relatedness of different organisms. This field of sciences is called phylogenetics and the mentioned example is the result of phylogenetics.

• Analogous structures: The jointed legs of insects and vertebrates arose independently, indicating a different evolutionary origin.  

Analogous structures are those that have similar function but they look very different in structure or anatomy. This is because they have been evolved from different ancestors and perform different functions. One example of these structures is mentioned, The jointed legs of insects and vertebrates that look different bur perform same function.
