A cladogram containing a zebra, bear, lion, and tiger, should look like this:
mammalia
I I
carnivora perissodactyla
I I I
arctoidea feliformia equidae
I I I
ursidae felidae equini
I I I
ursus pantherinae equus
I
panthera
I I
panthera tigris panthera leo
All four animals are part of the mammals, thus it is the closest relation they all have. Further, the lion, tiger, and bear are part of the carnivores, while the zebra is part of herbivores, thus purring the first three to be more closely connected. The bear than diverges into its own family, while the lion and tiger remain in the same, thus making them the most closely related. So we have the lion and tiger to be the closest, than comes the bear, being closer to them then to the zebra, and then comes the zebra which is connected with the other three much further back in the past.
It’s D ! I did it already !
Answer:
B. Corundum
Explanation:
Using the Mohs scale of hardness, the mineral has a hardness greater than 6.5 (Steel nail) but less than 8.5 (Drill bit). The corundum has a hardness of 9.0, which means it cannot be scratched by a drill bit, but all the other choices have a hardness scale less than 6.5 but the mineral was not scratched by the nail. So the best answer would be B.
