Answer:

By looking at a fossil record, a scientist can learn how a species developed over time. These fossils show what a species looked like in the past. Through testing, they can determine how old and what kind of organism it was so they can compare it to similar organism today to see how it evolved.

Hope this helps! :D

Answer:

You could use the fossil record to help explain the evolution of a species by watching how it aged, what it ate, how it breed and where it lived along with a million of other things. It could have lived in the 20 below freezing and then you find that same fossil in the warmest place in the world it shows that the species either adapted or possibly had an offspring that could handle the high temperatures.

Which of the following is not true of lymphatic capillaries?
lidiya [134]

Answer: D: They are closed at one end

Explanation:

"Lymphatic Capillaries" are tiny, thin walled microvessels located in spaces between cells and their main function is to drain and process extracellular fluid.

They are larger than blood capillaries and have "closed ends". Their unique structure permits interstitial fluid to flow into them but not out. Thus their ends are closed unlike the loop structure of blood capillaries.

Why do traits that give an organism a disadvantage exist during meiosis? Please be as descriptive as possible and write it in yo
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Meiosis is important because during sexual reproduction, it ensures that all produced organisms have the correct number of chromosomes. It is also responsible for producing genetic variations during the process of recombination, and it repairs some genetic defects.

The disadvantage from not having the trait normally arises only after the reproductive stage of the individual's lifecycle is mostly over. This is a special case of "no strong pressure", because evolution selects genes, not the organism. In other words the beneficial mutation does not alter the reproductive fitness.

Explanation:

Meiosis is important because during sexual reproduction, it ensures that all produced organisms have the correct number of chromosomes. It is also responsible for producing genetic variations during the process of recombination, and it repairs some genetic defects.
