Why did the narrator use the phrase “fit together like puzzle pieces” to describe how the cells of a developing human embryo form a human face
D) Turtles were the first group of animals to branch off in this tree of animals.
Turtles were the first group of animals to branch off in this tree of animals. According to the tree, the animals share a common ancestor. The first branch shows that what we call a speciation event occurred, resulting in two lineages. The first group of animals to result were the turtles. All the other animals are on the other branch. This does not indicate that any group is more highly evolved than the other.
Answer:
Lysozyme in the body fluid protects us from bacterial infection by damaging the cell wall of bacteria which ultimately kills the bacteria.
The bacterial cell wall is made up of NAG and NAM units which is joined by β (1-4) glycosidic bond. Lysozyme attacks on this bond and breaks it causing the damage in the cell wall of bacteria which leads to the death of bacteria.
Archaeal cell wall do not contain β (1-4) glycosidic linkage, it contains β(1-3) glycosidic linkage in its cell wall between NAT and NAG unit and lysozyme do not able to break β(1-3) glycosidic linkage between them so lysozyme do not cause any harm to the archaeal invaders.
B. an ecosystem
An ecosystem contains a community (several species of organisms) and the environment including air, water, and more.
