Scientists collect information that allows them to make evolutionary connections between organisms. Similar to detective work, scientists must use evidence to uncover the facts. In the case of phylogeny, evolutionary investigations focus on two types of evidence: morphologic (form and function) and genetic.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Plants make their food in their leaves. And need sun for this process, so smaller and fewer leaves means less sun for photosynthesis, and it also means less food to nourish the plant.
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Suffling of genetic material increases genetic variation in offspring which is important for evolution.
Explanation:
Genetic shuffling or genetic recombination helps in the formation of new trait combinations which increase the genetic variation in the population and this genetic variation is very much important for the evolution of species.
In sexual reproduction, the genetic shuffling occurs during the formation of gametes when the two homologous chromosomes exchange their genetic material with each other. This increase variation in gametes.
Fusion of two different gametes in sexual reproduction also helps in increasing the genetic variation in the offspring.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
endothermic reaction
Explanation:
This means it cannot occur without energy (from the Sun).
