What are the three main ways that common ancestry may be shown through homologies

Biology
1 answer:
Harrizon [31]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Homology is a study of similar characters found in two species because of common ancestry.

Explanation:

1.Morphological homology: Species placed under same taxonomic category exhibit similar anatomical structures.

2.Ontogenetic homology: Species belongs to same taxonomic category embryological similarities

3.Molecular homology: Species show molecular similarities such as DNA,RNA and protein

An example of homology is seen in the skeletal strycture of vertebrates. That is arm of a human,leg of a cat,fin of a whale and wing of a bat.

hypothesize a mechanism to explain how tissues respond to insulin in different ways, even tisses that have the same amount of re
soldi70 [24.7K]
<span>The major effects of insulin on muscle and adipose tissue are: (1) Carbohydrate metabolism: (a) it increases the rate of glucose transport across the cell membrane, (b) it increases the rate of glycolysis by increasing hexokinase and 6-phosphofructokinase activity, (c) it stimulates the rate of glycogen synthesis and decreases the rate of glycogen breakdown. (2) Lipid metabolism: (a) it decreases the rate of lipolysis in adipose tissue and hence lowers the plasma fatty acid level, (b) it stimulates fatty acid and triacylglycerol synthesis in tissues, (c) it increases the uptake of triglycerides from the blood into adipose tissue and muscle, (d) it decreases the rate of fatty acid oxidation in muscle and liver. (3) Protein metabolism: (a) it increases the rate of transport of some amino acids into tissues, (b) it increases the rate of protein synthesis in muscle, adipose tissue, liver, and other tissues, (c) it decreases the rate of protein degradation in muscle (and perhaps other tissues). These insulin effects serve to encourage the synthesis of carbohydrate, fat and protein, therefore, insulin can be considered to be an anabolic hormone.

• What would you expect to be the abiotic and biotic biggest challenges for plants and animals that live in the rainforest?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Well there are many abiotic elements, that the rest of the world shares. There is the warm soft breezes, the sun /sunlight, soil (for the decomposers), as mentioned above, there is lots of water, for the biotic features of the rainforest. Without these elements, most biotic (living) elements in the rainforest would die.
