How does biogeography provide evidence for evolution.
Liula [17]

The global distribution of organisms and the unique features of island species reflect the evolution and geological change. Fossils. Fossils document the existence of now-extinct past species that are related to present-day species.

There are multiple lines of evidence that provide support for common ancestry and evolution. Write 3-4 paragraphs describing at
Colt1911 [192]

Though I cannot write this essay for you, I can provide some information to get you started on the relationship between ancestry and evolution.

<h3 /><h3>How are ancestry and evolution related?</h3>

Ancestry and evolution share a close relationship in that we can use one to learn about the other. Evolution can be <u>traced </u>using ancestry. By analyzing the genetic information of ancestral species and using information gathered about the environment in which they lived, we can deduce the impact of evolution on said species. One possible example is that penguins used to be capable of flight, but given their mostly aquatic environments, have evolved wings more suited for swimming, and lost the ability to fly as a result.

Therefore, we can say that ancestry and genetic information can be used to support the theory of evolution by examining how two species can be very different but share a common ancestor, and evolution can explain these changes.

Two students are working together to Gram stain a mix of Gram positive and Gram negative cells. One of the students accidentally
Rasek [7]

Answer:

C.Both Gram positive and Gram negative cells would appear purple.

Explanation:

Gram staining is a technique used to differentiate bacteria to two main groups based on their difference in cell wall components.

Crystal violet, decolorizer(ethanol) and a counter stain are used.

Gram positive bacteria have a thicker peptidoglycan layer hence they will retain the crystal Violet stain even after decolorization. They will stain purple

Gram negative will stain pink due to losing the initial stain and taking up the counter stain after decolorization.

Therefore, if water is used instead of ethanol. Both bacteria will retain crystal violet stain in their cell wall.
