  The fact that both the humans and the bats have very similar forelimb structure, the humans in the arms, the bats in their wings, which in turn is very similar to those of an ancient sarcopterygian called eusthenopteron, suggest that both species probably share a common distant ancestor.

  The eusthenopteron was an ancient species first thought to be living on land, though the latest research shows that it was only living in water, however, this animal is a distant ancestor of both species. This animal can be seen as ancestor to the humans and the bats because it is part of group that created the first animals on land, which in turn gave rise to the mammals later on, and both humans and bats are mammals, thus there's a connection and common ancestor of the both.

Which of the following is not common to both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell division?
julsineya [31]

The correct answer is: A checkpoint will be activated if the spindle does not attach to a kinetochore.

Prokaryotes, do not undergo mitosis (like eukaryotes) and therefore have no need for a mitotic spindle. Prokaryotes also don’ t have checkpoints foor the regulation of cell division.

Normal eukaryotic cells (unlike cancer cells), move through the cell cycle in a regulated way in order to make sure that cells don't divide under conditions that are unfavorable for them. Information about their own internal state (nutrients, signal molecules, DNA integrity) is signal to go or not to go through the cell division. Because of that there are few checkpoints in the cell cycle at which the cell examines the signals and makes a “decision”. The major checkpoints are:

• The G1- the first point at which it must choose, once it passes the G1 checkpoint the cell enters S phase

• The G2-the cell checks DNA integrity and checks if replication is done well.

• The spindle checkpoint-at the transition from metaphase to anaphase.

Mitochondria and chloroplasts have a number of features in common. Which of the following is NOT one of them? (A: Both are surro
likoan [24]

The best answer is C.

Chloroplasts are not found in all eukaryotic cells but only in plant cells. Animal cells are eukaryotic in nature but animals do not have chloroplasts in their cells because they do not engage in photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make their own food. Chloroplasts  contain chlorophyll which is essential in t trapping sunlight from which supplies the energy for photosynthesis. 

Animals do not make their own food like plants but eat ready made food so their cells  lack mechanisms for food manufacture.

How can a single cell bacterium grow and reproduce exponentially
irinina [24]
Bacteria reproduce exponentially, and at a brisk pace, meaning one bacterium becomes two, two become four, four become eight, and so on. Because of this, bacteria populations can double in four to twenty minutes, giving bacteria the ability to form millions of cells in as little as a few hours. Under the right conditions, a single bacterial cell can replicate into as many as one billion individual bacteria in just 10 hours.

Question:

The organelle shown consists of a stack of flattened membranes.

What is the primary function of this organelle?

  • attaching amino acids to tRNA molecules
  • long-term storage of molecules in the cell
  • production of large and small ribosomal subunits
  • repackaging proteins for export from the cell

Answer:

  • repackaging proteins for export from the cell

Explanation:

The organelle consisting of a stack of flattened membranes is the Golgi apparatus.

The Golgi apparatus is like the packaging centre of the cell. It modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and from the endoplasmic reticulum to be stored in the cell or released outside the cell
