Answer: Scientists collect information that allows them to make evolutionary connections between organisms. Similar to detective work, scientists must use evidence to uncover the facts. In the case of phylogeny, evolutionary investigations focus on two types of evidence: morphologic (form and function) and genetic.

Two Measures of Similarity

Organisms that share similar physical features and genetic sequences tend to be more closely related than those that do not. Features that overlap both morphologically and genetically are referred to as homologous structures; the similarities stem from common evolutionary paths. For example, as shown in Figure 12.2.1, the bones in the wings of bats and birds, the arms of humans, and the foreleg of a horse are homologous structures. Notice the structure is not simply a single bone, but rather a grouping of several bones arranged in a similar way in each organism even though the elements of the structure may have changed shape and size.

Explanation: I don’t know what it is but I seach web that can always use google.

Secondary or second-level consumers eat primary consumers. Tertiary or third-level consumers eat lower-level consumers and are sometimes called final consumers. Some secondary and tertiary consumers eat plants as well as lower level consumers, making them omnivores.

Carlos is building a model of the water cycle. In his model, he includes a hill with a river leading to a valley. What does this

balu736 [363]

Answer:

The hill models gravity as a driving force in the water cycle.

Explanation:

Gravity (the gravitational force that pulls objects towards the centre of the Earth) drives the water cycle.

Gravity is responsible for precipitation (rain, hail, sleet, and snow) falling downwards towards the Earth's surface. It is also responsible for water at higher points on the Earth's surface flowing downwards to the lower points on the Earth's surface.

In Carlos' model, the hill represents a higher point on the Earth's surface while the valley represents a lower point on the Earth's surface. The river, flowing downwards from Carlos' hill to Carlos' valley, demonstrates the role of gravity as the driving force of the water cycle.
