The arm or forelimb of humans, horses, goats, and mice all exhibit the same three bone structures: humerus, ulna, and radius. Wh

ich statement BEST explains this common skeletal structure?
A)The limb bones are similar across these species because they share a common ancestor.
B)The limb bones are the same across these species because all of them move in a similar way.
C)The limbs are similar because of the recurring patterns of genetic mutation that are common in the Animal Kingdom.
D)The limbs are structurally similar due to convergent evolution--different organisms evolving to become structurally similar.

Answer:

A)The limb bones are similar across these species because they share a common ancestor.

Explanation:

The forelimb of humans, horses, goats, and mice are homologous organs. Homologous organs are those which are similar in origin but dissimilar in function. These organs are made of the same bones humerus, ulna, and radius. The above for limb in the given animals perform different functions as they live in different habitats. The homologous structures indicates divergent evolution.

Which of the following is a true statement?Anabolic pathways build molecules, require energy, and are endergonic.Anabolic pathwa
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

A: Anabolic pathways build molecules, require energy and are endergonic

Explanation:

Anabolism and catabolism are the two important process of metabolism - a process through which cells get energy to drive various processes within the body and get rid of toxic wastes.

Anabolic and catabolic reactions can be described as opposing sides of the same coin. While anabolism refers to the various reactions that build up molecules within the cell, catabolism has to do with the breakdown of big or complex molecules into smaller ones.

Both processes involves energy. Anabolic reactions require energy to drive the building up process and therefore referred to as endergonic reactions. On the other hand, catabolic reactions liberate energy during the breaking down of complex molecules and therefore referred to exergonic reactions.

A good example of anabolic reaction is photosynthesis which involves the building up of carbohydrate (glucose) using carbon-dioxide, water molecule and energy while a good example of catabolic reaction is respiration which involves the breakdown of carbohydrates into carbon-dioxide, water molecules and the release of energy.

Hence, the only correct option is A.
