Knowledge of genetics did not yet exist in Darwin's time, so genetic theory has since been used to explain natural selection. In addition, Darwin believed that evolution progressed at a slow, steady rate. However, that idea has been replaced by the punctuated equilibrium model, in which major changes in brief spurts.

Hello there,

1.) According to the biomolecular data, we COULD infer that humans are more closely related to chimps than any other apes.

2.) Based on the cladogram, if moths undergo complete metamorphosis, we would MOST LIKELY infer that butterflies and flies do as well.

3.) According to the cladogram, which of these were the direct ancestors of the Kingdom Fungi? Protista

4.) Trey is looking at a cell under the microscope. It is attached to many other cells, and it has a nucleus and membrane bound organelles. It has no cell wall. In which kingdom should this organism be classified? Fungi

5.) A review of the cladogram shows a common ancestor for these four types of vertebrates. Which statement BEST explains the genetics represented by the cladogram? Lizards and snakes are more genetically alike than lizards and birds.

Hope this helps

The rise in herd immunity amongst a population can be directly attributed to vaccinations. Details about vaccination can be found below.

<h3>What is vaccination?</h3>

Vaccination is the inoculation with a vaccine, in order to protect from a particular disease or strain of disease

A vaccine is a substance given to stimulate the body's production of antibodies and provide immunity against a disease without causing the disease itself in the treatment, prepared from the agent that causes the disease.

Therefore, it can be said that rise in herd immunity amongst a population can be directly attributed to vaccinations.

How do we get the glucose we need to power our cells?

weeeeeb [17]

I found this, I hope it helps some.
Together they take that energy out of the sugar-related molecules. Glucose is combined with oxygen and releases usable energy, carbon dioxide, and water. ... ATP is the power molecule used by all the cells of an organism to power the secondary reactions that keep us alive.
