Answer:

D. analogous.

Explanation:

Analogous organs can be defined as organs, which show similar functions, but do not having common origins. Organisms that possess analogous organs do not share common ancestor as their organs are derived from different origins.

Examples of analogous organs include wings of bats, birds, and birds which are evolved independently, but share common function (flying).

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

. What is the role of water in this anabolic process
solniwko [45]
Cellular respiration is also a catabolic process because it breaks the small molecules from digestion into even smaller ones as ATP is created. These are both very important processes, because ATP is what your cells use to produce body heat, move your muscles, and other essential bodily functions.

Which of the following statements about the development of infectious diseases is correct?
zalisa [80]

The period of Convalescence is the time during which the person regains health and fully recovers.

Explanation:

  • Diseases that can spread from one person to other  are called infectious disease.
  • Disease development is divided into Incubation period, Prodromal period, period of illness, Decline period, and period of Convalescence.
  • During incubation period the pathogen enters the host body and starts multiplying itself. But the signs of diseases are unnoticeable.
  • Then comes  the prodromal period, when the pathogen keeps multiplying itself and some signs of disease are observed but they are not obvious
  • After the prodromal period comes the period of illness when the patient exhibits obvious signs of sickness.
  • As the period of illness is over the symptoms of disease start to cease and the the number of pathogen decrease in body.This period is the period of decline.
  • Finally comes the period of Convalescence when the person returns to his pre-disease state and is completely healthy. (except irreversible damage caused by the disease)
