By studying fossils, scientists can learn how much (or how little) organisms have changed as life developed on Earth. There are gaps in the fossil record because many early forms of life were soft-bodied, which means that they have left few traces behind. This is why scientists cannot be certain about how life began.
Answer:
1. Obtain two identical containers and dry sand.
2. Shape equal amounts of sand into a "slope on the side of" each container.
3. Spray water on the sand in one container. The sprayed water represents "rainfall"
.
4. In the other container, "place ice cubes to melt on the sand. This represents snow or glaciers."
.
5. Observe and record the changes in the sand.
6. Analyze differences between the two containers.

Answer:
The platypus serves as a 'bridge' animal between nonmammals like birds and reptiles, which maintain their testicles in their body cavity, and placental and marsupial mammals, which hold their testes in an external scrotum."
The acidic environment of the lysosome and the lysosomal enzymes detach the ligands from their receptors.
Receptor-mediated endocytosis is a process in which cell surface receptors are employed for transporting substances such as proteins, hormones, and metabolites from extra-cellular matrix into the cells. Receptor-mediated endocytosis usually occurs through clathrin (a type of protein)-coated pits and vesicle and it allow only the receptor-specific substances to enter the cell. Under this process, molecule binds to protein receptors after which the receptor molecule moves to clathrin coated pits and vesicle. The cell membrane then folds inwards and there is fusion of a coated vesicle. After this, the ligands are detached from their receptors.
