Answer:
Homology is similarity due to shared ancestry between a pair of organisms in different taxa. Both bats and humans have a common mammalian ancestor.
They diverged and adapted their arms for different functions.
Explanation:
Homologous features are physical features shared due to evolutionary history (a common ancestor).
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-A
Explanation:
The Mosses are the non-vascular plants that were developed from the aquatic plants and the ferns are the vascular plants which developed from the bryophytes.
Their life cycle shows alternation of generation and is largely dependent on the water for reproduction mainly fertilization or fusion of gametes.
The male gametes produced in these plant groups are haploid and are released in water which fuses in water with female gamete which is distinct from the higher plant groups gymnosperms and angiosperms where fertilization is mediated by mostly the wind or insects.
Thus, option-A is the correct answer.
Answer:
c Bone
Explanation: There are 4 basic types of tissue: connective tissue, epithelial tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue.
Answer:
The answer is B.
Explanation:
When you skin your knee, cells divide to replace old, dead, or damaged cells.
Answer:
In hypertonic solutions, the cells will shrink and in hypotonic solutions the cells will fill up
Cells with cell walls will be able to control their tonicity better than cells without cell walls.
Explanation:
Cells with cell walls
- In a hypertonic solution (high solute concentration), water will flow out of the cell into the solution until equilibrium is reached. If the solution has a high concentration of solute the cell may undergo<u> plasmolysis where the plasma membrane detaches from the cell wall.</u>
- In a hypotonic solution: Water will flow into the cell because it has a higher solute concentration compared to the solution. This will continue until the cell is <u>turgid</u>. If more water continues to enter the cell, the cell is at risk of bursting, this takes a while because the cell wall will withstand the pressure.
Cells without cell walls
- In a hypertonic solution: Water will diffuse out of the cell, however there is no cell wall so cell is in danger of shrinking and dying.
- In hypotonic solution: Water will diffuse into cell,the cell will become turgid and if water keeps moving in the cell will burst because it has no cell wall to resist the pressure.
