Answer:

While skeletal muscles are arranged in regular, parallel bundles, cardiac muscle connects at branching, irregular angles, called intercalated discs. Striated muscle contracts and relaxes in short, intense bursts, whereas smooth muscle sustains longer or even near-permanent contractions.

Why do some offspring look like their parents, while others do not?

castortr0y [4]

Some offsprings look like their parents because we all have different genes. Different combinations of genes for one of these traits create a bunch of different physical attributes. Even though we get all our DNA from our parents, each of us has a unique combination of genes.

Fittoniya [83]

Darwin hypothesized that new species could appear gradually through small changes in an ancestral species.what experiment did he

Elanso [62]

Answer;
He conducted an experiment with breeding pigeons.

Explanation;
The pigeons provided the perfect animal to test his theory of selection for quite a number of reasons including its trait diversity from wing structures to color patterns to size to flight patterns. From these experiments he concluded that by natural selection of randomly occurring traits that make species better suited for survival and reproduction, evolve in the astounding diversity of organisms on Earth today.
