Answer:

C

Explanation:

The correct answer would be that <u>more closely related species will have more similarities in DNA.</u>

The DNA stores the genetic information of organisms and contains a set of instructions that defines how organisms look. It is usually used to delimit species with closely related species of organisms having similar DNA. The more related species are, the more similar their DNA would be and vice versa because the <em>similarity in the DNA of organisms is often used as an indication of descending from a common ancestor.</em>

The correct option is, therefore, C.

son4ous [18]
In some case, I would say the sea otter would be both a dominant and keystone specie. Sea otters are main predators and most often are at the top or near the top of the food chain (whales and sharks would trump them easily as the top predators), but in this specific situation, the sea otter is a keystone species. A keystone species is an organism that more often than not an ecosystem can not continue without. In this situation, without the sea otter to control the sea urchin population is grew out of control and caused the expulsion of the giant brown kelp and havoc for the spawning fish. Thus, the sea otter is a must.

which types of freely movable joints are often found in areas of the body such as the shoulders and hips needing movement in man
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The correct answer would be c. Ball and socket joints.

The Ball and socket joint is one of the types of synovial joint in which the round or ball-shaped end of one bone and cup or socket-like depression of other bone are complementary in nature.  

The ball of one bone fits into the cup of other bone.

It provides greater freedom of movement as compared to another type of joints.

The distal bone can move around in a various number of axes all of which have a common center.

It is primarily present in the hip and shoulder joint of mammals.
