Answer:

Evolution occurs about 6 million years ago.

Explanation:

The mammoth evolved from the common ancestor because evolution occurs about 6 million years ago. The modern elephants and woolly mammoths share a common ancestor and they are split into two separate species about 6 million years ago due to change in genetics as well as environment that leads to the evolution in the elephants.

Why don't all cells demonstrate the presence of all intracellular structures?
Vinil7 [7]

All the cells don't have all of the intracellular structures because each and every cell do not need each and every intracellular structure. The plant cells have chloroplasts because they need to convert the light energy into chemical energy via the process of photosynthesis, the animal cells, however, have no such need, therefore, the animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Also, the erythrocytes do not have the cellular organelles in them which are present in the other body cells, because there is no need for the cellular organelles in them. The large vacuoles in plant cells is also a great example. The plants need the vacuoles for the metabolic processes, while most animal cells have no need for them.

During metamorphosis, a tadpole's tail is reduced in size by the process of ______. A. regeneration B. apoptosis C. oxidative ph
jolli1 [7]

The process of apoptosis, I believe, is when the tadpole's tail is reduced in size during metamorphosis.

In most animal phyla, metamorphosis actually takes place in conjunction with morphological, ecological, and physiological changes.

Marine invertebrates' larva behaves as a drifting tiny creature in the ocean, expanding its habitat distribution to find the best location for its survival.

When muscle cells undergo apoptosis, which is the final stage of their metamorphosis, they are split into membrane-bound muscle fragments and consumed by macrophages.

As a tadpole becomes a frog, apoptosis occurs. The cells in its tail are induced and it will be lost.

Your friend claims that all mutations are harmful to living things. Do you agree or disagree with this claim?
natulia [17]

Answer: No, I do not agree with this claim. Genetic Mutations are changes in the genetic sequence, and they are a main cause of diversity among organisms. In other words, it is any change in the form of DNA. A mutation can result in a beneficial, neutral, or harmful reaction. It is mostly dependent on the organisms location and the context of the organism.
