gene: is a segment of that DNA some of the genes can give instructions in order to produce proteins

alleles: it is a version of a gene and they are located on the same part of the chromosome and we normally inherit 2 alleles for each gene

Answer:

c. lobes

Explanation:

Brain lobes are divisions of the cerebral hemispheres, designated by the names of the surrounding cranial bones and covering them. The frontal lobe is located in the forehead region; the occipital lobe in the nape region; the parietal lobe in the upper central part of the head; and the temporal lobes in the lateral regions of the head above the ears.

Parietal, temporal and occipital lobes are involved in producing the perceptions resulting from what our sensory organs detect in the outer environment and the information they provide about the position and relationship to outer objects of different parts of our body.

The bones in the wings of birds and bats are _______ because they derived from a _______ ancestor, while the wings are _______ t

dolphi86 [110]

The answer is: homologous; common; homoplastic.

The bones in the wings of birds and bats are homologous because they derived from a common ancestor, while the wings are homoplastic traits. Homologous structures are similar structures shared by different groups and that are derived from a common ancestor. The similar anatomy of bones in the wings of birds and bats is inherited from a common ancestor of tetrapods (to which birds and bats belong). However, wings are not inherited from the common ancestor of birds and bats. Therefore, wins are homoplastic traits (analogous structures) because they have similar function but they are not inherited from the common ancentor.
