The question is incomplete. The complete question is as following:

In humans, the pelvis and the femur, or thighbone, are involved in walking. In whales, the pelvis and femur shown in this figure represent...

Answer:

vestigial structures

Explanation:

A "vestigial structure" or "vestigial organ" are defined as the organs that no longer have any function in the organisms' body but had an important role in past.

<em>Pelvis and femur are thigh bones in humans which helps them in walking but in whale's pelvis and femur are considered as vestigial structures. </em>

The pelvis and femur in whales, are the inherited structure from ancestors and shows evidence for evolution on the basis of natural selection.

Hence, the correct answer is vestigial structures.

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs.

After matching each set of values of a function to the pair of points that satisfy the function, we get

1-4

2-2

3-1

4-3

(4,3) and (6.7) rate of change = 2, and initial value = -5

k= 7-3/6-4 = 2, y=2x-5

(2,10) and (5, 19) rate of change=3, and initial value = 4

k= 19-10/5-2 = 9/3 = 3, y=3x+4

(2,5) and (5.2)→ rate of change = -1, and initial value = 7.

k= 2-5/5-2 = -3/3 = -1, y= -x+7

(2.4) and (4,3) →→ rate of change = -0.5, and initial value =5

k= 3-4/4-2 = -1/2 =-0.5, y=-0.5x+5

The set of input values and the set of output values for a function each have their own names. The domain of the function is the collection of input values. The range of the function is the collection of output values.

Correct question: Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs. Match each set of values of a function to the pair of points that satisfy the function. rate of change = -1, and initial value = 7 rate of change = 2, and initial value = -5 rate of change = -0.5, and initial value = 5 rate of change = 3, and initial value = 4 (4, 3) and (6, 7) arrowRight (2, 10) and (5, 19) arrowRight (2, 5) and (5, 2) arrowRight (2, 4) and (4, 3) arrowRight
