The forelimbs of all mammals are homologous traits, meaning that they originate from a common ancestral trait.
The correct answer is therefore C. Homologies (homologous traits), from the same common ancestor.
(To clarify, we know it is from a common ancestor because both bats and humans are mammals)
Cellular respiration is the process by which the body breaks down sugar like glucose, to release ATP, which is an energy storing molecule. This is how the body gets energy from food.
The answer is invasive species.
<span>Invasive species are species that are not native to the specific ecosystem, but they are capable of spreading widely through the ecosystem. This way they can threaten native species of the ecosystem or cause environmental harm.

<span>After being introduced into the
Hawaiian Islands, the cane toads greatly affect local ecosystem. In the new area, they
have a few natural predators and are able to spread. If they spread beyond
the area they are introduced, they become invasive species which can
overgrow native biotopes and are a great threat to the local biodiversity.
This could lead to the extinction of some native species.</span>
Trans-neptunian Objects (TNO) is a planet in our solar system. The first TNO discovered was Pluto. TNOs are classified into two groups:
1. Kuiper Belt Objects
2. Scattered Disc Objects
There are various TNOs discovered till date some of which are:
1. Pluto
2. Lempo
3. 90482 Orcus
4. 136199 Eris
Answer: Pluto is a TNO with the most eccentric orbit.

Fighting for Clean Air in our National Parks</h2>
Air pollution is one of the most serious threats facing national parks, harming visitors’ health, clouding scenic views and altering our climate.
The air pollution affecting national parks — and the rest of the country — results from the burning of fossil fuels by power plants, oil and gas development, vehicles, agriculture, industrial emissions, and other sources. NPCA works to make sure our nation’s air laws are strong, to hold polluters and government accountable to those laws, and ultimately, to reduce the air pollution that harms our parks, climate and communities.
<h2>Defending Federal Laws and Regulations
</h2>
The Clean Air Act – which has helped improve air quality throughout the nation and the National Park System – is now under consistent threat as the Environmental Protection Agency works to roll back regulations, attack the use of science and offer polluters loopholes. NPCA advocates to defend and strengthen the clean air laws that protect park skies. We speak out for science and guard against policies driven only by politics and private industry.
<h2>Holding Polluters and Governments Accountable
</h2>
Picture park skies free of pollution. While this sadly isn’t the case today, NPCA strives to make sure that parks are on the right track and that air pollution harming parks is reduced. We do this by helping to secure strong state plans to limit haze-causing and climate-altering pollution, and by defending existing plans – in court, if necessary.
<h2>Advocating for Pollution Reduction</h2>
Clean air laws are meaningless if polluters and the government don’t follow them. NPCA vigilantly monitors for sources that violate their permits or when officials aren’t following through on the safeguards in place to protect parks. We also look for opportunities to collaborate and work in state, local or regional processes to prevent threats of new pollution and help reduce harmful emissions.
