The first known bird fossil date to the mesozoic era of time.
Explanation:
- The first known bird fossil is Archaeopteryx.
- Archaeopteryx were not exactly like modern birds and are called dinosaur like birds..
- Carbon dating suggest that these birds evolved during the jurassic period of mesozoic era.
- These are considered as the only birds of that era.
- Ancestors of modern birds began to evolve during cretaceous period and kept on evolving through Cenozoic era.
Answer: Feeding behaviors, trophic levels, cell wall composition, and their organelles distinguish fungi from plants.
Explanation:
While plants and fungi are both eukaryotes, they differ in terms of feeding behaviors, trophic levels, cell wall composition, and their organelles.
- Cell walls: both are non-chain polysaccharides (sugars) that function as structural support; yet fungal cell walls are composed of chitin while plant cell walls are made up of cellulose
- Feeding: fungi secrete compounds that digest their food sources before they can take in nutrients and they store food as <em>glycogen; </em>while plants do not require a means of pre-digesting food and store their food as <em>starch.</em>
- Organelles: plant cells contain <em>chloroplasts</em>, small green structures with chlorophyll that causes their characteristic coloration. Unlike plants, fungi do not photosynthesize to make their own food or contain chloroplasts.
- Trophic level: are strictly <em>heterotrophs or decomposers, </em>depending on other organisms for survival. Their chloroplasts enable them to carry out photosynthesis, thus they are <em>autotrophs or producers. </em>
Answer: they are distinguished from one another <span>by the number of fatty acids attached to the glycerol backbone.
</span>
<span>A monoglyceride is a molecule formed by a glycerol backbone and one
fatty acid covalently bonded to it through ester linkages.
</span>A diglyceride is a molecule formed by a glycerol backbone and two fatty acid chains covalently bonded to it through ester linkages.
A tryglyceride is a molecule formed by a glycerol backbone and three fatty
acid chains covalently bonded to it through ester linkages.
Answer:
To obtain a view of an individual's karyotype, cytologists photograph the chromosomes and then cut and paste each chromosome into a chart, or karyogram, also known as an ideogram. In a given species, chromosomes can be identified by their number, size, centromere position, and banding patter
