<h2>Collagen genes is the best choice</h2>

Explanation:

Collagen is the most abundant protein in mammals

  • Collagen is found in bones,muscles,tendons and skin
  • It is the one which holds the body together
  • It strengthen and support many tissues in the body
  • Collagen genes encode many types of collagen which have a structural role in the extracellular matrix and has a great tensile strength
  • At least 26 different collagen polypeptide chains are present which are encoded by 26 unique collagen genes
  • Since collagen is the main protein of connective tissue in animals and is considered as the most abundant protein in mammals it can be the best choice to base the phylogeny
  • Rest all options are specific for a particular function in particular animals

'<span>According to the following diagram, approximately how much time goes by between phase H and phase B? Explain your answer.'

I'll try to explain this as simply as possible.  A single moon cycle is 29 and a half days. Each individual cycle takes approximately 3 and a half days to transition to the next phase, so i</span>f you want to know how much time goes by between phase H and phase B, you would multiply 3.5 by however many phases there are between H and B.  The answer is approximately 11 or so days.
