Answer:

Houseflies have a vestigial structure.

Explanation:

Vestigial structures nonfunctional structures present in living organisms. These structures were functional in the ancestors of the organisms and have lost the ability to work during evolution.

Houseflies have tiny hind wings as vestigial structures that do not serve them in flying. However, these hind wings were much bigger and served in flying in ancestral species of houseflies as proved by the discovery of insect having bigger hind wings.

What happens to the temperature when the atmospheric co2 level increases in this model?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The temperature of the surrounding air increases when the atmospheric CO2 level increases.

Explanation:

Carbondioxide gas is also called greenhouse gas because it has the ability to absorb or trap heat energy when the solar radiation goes into the space after hitting the earth surface. If the concentration of carbondioxide gas is increased, more heat energy will be trapped and thus increase occurs in the temperature of the atmosphere which results in global warming.

Insulin is most directly related to which function?
Lorico [155]
Insulin helps control blood glucose levels by signaling the liver and muscle and fat cells to take in glucose from the blood. Insulin therefore helps cells to take in glucose to be used for energy. If the body has sufficient energy, insulin signals the liver to take up glucose and store it as glycogen.
