Answer:

The correct answer is option a. "scales".

Explanation:

The missing information of this question is the following:

"Terry catches a ray-finned fish from the ocean and notices that attached to its flank is an equally long, snakelike organism. The attached organism has no external segmentation, no scales, a round mouth surrounded by a s*cker, and two small eyes. Terry concludes it is a hagfish."

Gymnophiona is a group of amphibians characterized by having dermal scales as integumentary element. These amphibians are tetrapods and their scales are comprised of several layers of unmineralized collagenous fibers. The skeleton of the hagfish is made entirely of cartilage, therefore it is very likely that the tooth-like objects of hagfish's are made of cartilage, just like the scales of the tetrapod.

explain how the understanding of atomic emission spectrum led to the development of the atomic theory
Ivahew [28]

Using hydrogen in his experiments Bohr showed that an electron spins around the atom nuclei at a specific/discrete radii (orbital levels). Electrons at every orbital level spin at a discrete angular momentum and energy. When the electron moves one orbital level down, it releases a photon of energy specific to the jump (that is, of a particular spectrum that is unique to the atom). When the electron goes up an orbital level, energy (of a specific spectrum) is absorbed. This emission and absorption spectrum varies across atoms and is calculated as (delta)E = hf where;

E = energy

h = Planck's constant

f = frequency
