Why is the fossil named Ida so important to comparative anatomists?

Biology
1 answer:
kykrilka [37]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Fossils are usually named based on the following conditions-

  • the location in which they are found
  • named after the scientist who discovers it
  • the rock formation in which they are found
  • They are given two names, the genus and the species

These fossils are again categorized into different groups depending on the similarity in terms of form.

These names of the fossils are important to the comparative anatomists because it helps them in doing the comparative study and understand the causes of similarities and dissimilarities in terms of anatomy and also helps in understanding the evolutionary process of these organisms. For example, the fossil named 'Ida' is the primitive fossil that was found to be almost completely preserved. This fossil helped in comparative studies with other fossil species in a number of ways.

Answer:

The new plants are identical to the mother strawberry plant because they are the result  of asexual reproduction, that is, from successive mitosis clones of the mother plant are made. The runners do vegetative reproduction, they make the vegetative reproduction by means of which roots and stems are formed with identical cells to the parent.

During the process of photosynthesis,
TEA [102]

Answer:

d. less than 100% of the energy captured from sunlight is transformed into potential energy in the form of a hydrogen ion gradient and then into potential energy in the form of covalent bonds

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is process utilized by plants, several bacteria and protists to convert the light energy to chemical energy. So they utilize the photosynthesis as the powerhouse for the energy production. Heterotrophs like human that cannot synthesize their own food, use this converted form of energy by autotrophs.

During the light reaction of photosynthesis the photons from light are absorbed by photosystem I and II. These photons excites the electrons which flow through the electron transport chain from higher potential to lower potential. These electrons release the energy while moving from higher potential to lower potential which is utilized by H+ pump to pump the H+ to lumen of plastids from stroma and of course not the 100% energy is utilized some of the energy dissipates. . So this process causes the accumulation of high potential H+ ions across the membrane. These H+ ions are utilized for the production of ATP by ATP synthase complex when they flow back to lower potential across the membrane through ATP synthase complex.

The ATP and NADPH produced from light reaction are utilized to combine carbon molecules during dark reaction. The covalent bond is used to combine the carbon molecules and we know that combining carbon molecules stores energy in the form of covalent bond.
