C. Halophile is the correct answer
Answer;
-They all provide water
Explanation;
In reaction A, the reactants are glucose and fructose , and the products are Sucrose and water. This is a condensation reaction, following the combination of two monosaccharides (glucose and fructose) forming a dissaccharide (sucrose) and water.
In reaction B, the reactants are two amino acids, that results to formation of a dipeptide and water; this is also a condensation reaction joining two amino acids monomers, to form a dipeptide and water.
-In reaction C, a monoglyceride combines with a fatty acid to form a diglyceride and water. This is also an example of a condensation reaction that results to formation of a diglyceride and water.
Therefore, the similarity of all the reactions is that they are all condensation reactions, with water as a common product.
• Homologous structures: Both Ostriches have wings similar in form to those of their ancestors, but that do not allow the birds to fly.
Homologous structures are those that have structural similarities but are different in function. For example, if we look at the anatomical structure of a bird’s wing, it is very similar in structure with a human arm. However, over the course of time they have evolved to perform different functions.
• Vestigial structures: The inner ear bones of mammals have evolved from bones that form the jaws of reptiles.
Vestigiality refers to the process in which some structure lose their function over the course of evolution in some specie but they are functionally normal in other species. Such a structure is the inner ear bones of mammals which donot perform an important function in mammals but do perform in reptiles.
• DNA sequence data: Both Genes involved in RNA replication are conserved among bacteria and animals, suggesting a common evolutionary origin.
The sequencing of genetic data is an excellent method of finding the evolutionary histories and relatedness of different organisms. This field of sciences is called phylogenetics and the mentioned example is the result of phylogenetics.
• Analogous structures: The jointed legs of insects and vertebrates arose independently, indicating a different evolutionary origin.
Analogous structures are those that have similar function but they look very different in structure or anatomy. This is because they have been evolved from different ancestors and perform different functions. One example of these structures is mentioned, The jointed legs of insects and vertebrates that look different bur perform same function.
In the scenario give above, the disease reservoir is the PARROT and the possible transmission method is INDIRECT CONTACT THROUGH AIR.
Disease reservoir refers to a source of a particular pathogen in an environment. A disease reservoir can be a person, an animal or an inanimate object like soil. In the case given above, the parrot is the disease reservoir and it passes the disease pathogen to the student. Pathogens are transmitted through four distinct ways, these are: direct contact, indirectly through the air, indirectly through contaminated object and through vectors. The disease pathogen was possibly passed to the student when the parrot was talking via tiny mucus droplets that escape from the bird's mouth.
ATP
-Photosynthesis makes the glucose that is used in cellular respiration to make ATP. The glucose is then turned back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis. -While water is broken down to form oxygen during photosynthesis, in cellular respiration oxygen is combined with hydrogen to form water.
