In evolutionary theory, homologous traits are those with a similar structure and function derived from a common ancestor. Analog

ous traits represent adaptations to a similar environment, but from distantly related organisms. Consider the structure and function of the flagella found on eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Are the flagella an example of a homologous or analogous trait? Defend your answer.

Answer:

Prokaryotic flagella are analogous to eukaryotic flagella-like structures

Explanation:

Beyond that they have the same function, flagella from prokaryotes have very little in common with flagella from eukaryotic organisms. Eukaryotic flagella are composed of microtubules. On the other hand, bacterial flagella are composed of polymers of flagellin, which is another unrelated protein. Homologous structures indicate the existence of a common origin (common ancestry), and it is not the case.

Construction workers attach ropes and pulleys to wooden timbers on an old bridge.
balu736 [363]

Answer:

It is a safe and efficient method.

Explanation:

This method of dismantle the bridge is also a good one but there are some other methods also that are used instead of rope and pulley system such as destroy the bridge by using bombs at the base of pillars and cutting of each part in order to dismantle the bridge. This rope and pulley system is also an efficient way to dismantle the bridge so that's why the engineers used this method instead of other methods due to its safe method.

The largest and most complex mitochondrial genomes come from _____.
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

Angiosperm

Explanation:

The mitochondria of flowering Angiosperm plant are the largest. The size of these mitochondria varies from 1.86 million bp to 2.4 million bp. It is also the most complex one as it carries large number of repeating units which allows multiple permutations for recombination. This allows generation of mitochondria of varying sizes with in the same species.

It is least gene dense  as the inter regions are highly expanded. One of the most distinguishing feature of these mitochondria's are that they contain polypeptides. These polypeptides are basically non functional but have potential to evolve into functional one.

Answer:

Once a vital plant that many humans or animals need go extinct, many of them will die due to starvation and or shelters they build might not be able to be built due to the extinct plant being gone. As an  example, If trees went extinct, humans wouldn't be able to live. One, because trees help filter the air for us humans to breath, wood is a very vital supply too. Wood is used for paper, homes, and even appliances.
