Answer:

B: Organisms in the same group have similar characteristics.

Explanation:

All living organisms are classified into groups based on very basic, shared characteristics. Organisms within each group are then further divided into smaller groups. These smaller groups are based on more detailed similarities within each larger group. This grouping system makes it easier for scientists to study certain groups of organisms. Characteristics such as appearance, reproduction, mobility, and functionality are just a few ways in which living organisms are grouped together. These specialized groups are collectively called the classification of living things. The classification of living things includes 7 levels: kingdom, phylum, classes, order, families, genus, and species .

Kingdoms

The most basic classification of living things is kingdoms. Currently there are five kingdoms. Living things are placed into certain kingdoms based on how they obtain their food, the types of cells that make up their body, and the number of cells they contain.

Phylum

The phylum is the next level following kingdom in the classification of living things. It is an attempt to find some kind of physical similarities among organisms within a kingdom. These physical similarities suggest that there is a common ancestry among those organisms in a particular phylum.

Classes

Classes are way to further divide organisms of a phylum. As you could probably guess, organisms of a class have even more in common than those in an entire phylum. Humans belong to the Mammal Class because we drink milk as a baby.

Order

Organisms in each class are further broken down into orders. A taxonomy key is used to determine to which order an organism belongs. A taxonomy key is nothing more than a checklist of characteristics that determines how organisms are grouped together.

Families

Orders are divided into families. Organisms within a family have more in common than with organisms in any classification level above it. Because they share so much in common, organisms of a family are said to be related to each other. Humans are in the Hominidae Family.

Genus

Genus is a way to describe the generic name for an organism. The genus classification is very specific so there are fewer organisms within each one. For this reason there are a lot of different genera among both animals and plants. When using taxonomy to name an organism, the genus is used to determine the first part of its two-part name.

Species

Species are as specific as you can get. It is the lowest and most strict level of classification of living things. The main criterion for an organism to be placed in a particular species is the ability to breed with other organisms of that same species. The species of an organism determines the second part of its two-part name.

Hope I am right on this one and that it helps you!

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

In 10th grade , Natalie fits the societal ideal of a slender body type . She is most likely a(n) :

A) late-maturer.

B) average-maturer.

C) prepubescent.          

D) early-maturer.

Answer:

D) early-maturer.

Explanation:

If Natalie is in 10th grade, it means she is around 15-16 years old. This is an age when the body is being modeled after the molds of an adult body. However, children's characteristics should still be present at this age.

This is not what is happening to Natalie, since at this age she has a body that fits society's standards for a slim body. These standards of beauty in society are aimed at adult bodies, Natalie is not an adult, which shows that she is a person with early maturity.

The particles in some system are moving around quickly. a few minutes later, the particles are moving, on average, more slowly.
dimaraw [331]

The change in motion affect the temperature of the system as the temperature of the system is lower now than it was initially. Faster moving particles result in a higher temperature for the system.

<h3>What is temperature?</h3>

It should be noted that temperature simply means the degree of hotness or coldness of a body.

In this case, the change in motion affect the temperature of the system as the temperature of the system is lower now than it was initially

Also, it should be noted that faster moving particles result in a higher temperature for the system.

The particles in some system are moving around quickly. A few minutes later, the particles are moving, on average, more slowly. How does this change in motion affect the temperature of the system? A. The temperature of the system did not change. The speed of the particles has no effect on the temperature, only the type of atom affects the temperature. B. The temperature of the system is higher now than it was initially. Slower moving particles result in a higher temperature for the system. C. The temperature of the system did not change. The speed of the particles does not affect temperature, the number of particles affects the temperature. D. The temperature of the system is lower now than it was initially. Faster moving particles result in a higher temperature for the system.
