Coelacanths and lungfish are collectively known as the lobe-finned fishes, and have fins containing similar arrangements of bone

s to those seen in tetrapod limbs. Which of the following statements about this relationship is TRUE?
O Because the fins of the lobe-finned fishes and the limbs of tetrapods are used for different purposes, they can not be homologous.
O Coelacanths and lungfish are considered to be the first tetrapods.
O This relationship is an example of a morphological similarity reflecting a likely evolutionary link.
O Despite the similar morphology of lobe fins and tetrapod limbs, genetic evidence suggests that coelacanths and lungfish are only distantly related to the tetrapods.

Answer:This relationship is an example of a morphological similarity reflecting a likely evolutionary link

Explanation:

Lungfish and Coelacanths are distinct from other fish because they are lobe-finned species.

Lately, major palaeontological studies proposed that Lungfish and Coelacanth form a  monophyletic sister group that is related closely to the tetrapods.

A monophyletic group is a group of organisms that include all the descendants and they share a common ancestor.

Answer:

advantages of sexual reproduction:

it produces variation in the offspring

the species can adapt to new environments due to variation, which gives them a survival advantage

a disease is less likely to affect all the individuals in a population

disadvantages of sexual reproduction:

time and energy are needed to find a mate

it is not possible for an isolated individual

advantages of asexual reproduction

the population can increase rapidly when the conditions are favourable

only one parent is needed

it is more time and energy efficient as you don't need a mate

Disadvantages of asexual reproduction

it does not lead to variation in a population

the species may only be suited to one habitat

disease may affect all the individuals in a population
