Biology

kumpel [21]3 years ago

Answer:

The option c is partly correct.

Explanation:

None of the statements is completely accurate because:

a. Saurischian dinosaurs include theropod and sauropod dinosaurs, and their common ancestors. Ornithischians comprise neornithischians (ornithopods and ceratopsians), thyreophorans (ankylosaurs and stegosaurs) and heterdontosaurids.

b. Capability to fly has only been documented in fossils belonging to Saurischia (where the birds are also classified in). Feathers, on the other hand, do appear in the two clades. Feathers, however, are not a trait exclusively associated to flight.

c. This is a correct comparison between ornithischians and saurischians in the sense that the attributes do belong to these clades, but when comparing animals there most be a comparison that reflects a pattern. Ornithischians have leaf shaped teeth suited to eat plant material, whereas saurischians have teeth for a carnivore and herbivore diet.

d. Sauropods are saurischians and they evolved herbivory from a meat-eater ancestor.

lidiya [134]

Answer:

81/256

Explanation:

By doing a test cross of albinism and sickle cell anemia you'll see that the probability that one child is unaffected by either conditions will be 9/16. Both children would be 9/16 * 9/16.  

Since fraternal twins are developed from two separate fertilization events the probability chance will be independent.

ANTONII [103]
If a scientist is planning to carry out such an experiment it wouldn't be appropriate to go and test this right ahead without any serious protection. It is always advised that scientists first collect data after they've created their initial hypotheses and read the required literature.
