D. A duck flies to another pond.
The above sentence is an example of emigration. Emigration refers to moving from one area to another for a long or permanent period. In this instance, a duck is leaving the pond it originally resided in (along a population other ducks) in order to reside in another pond. Therefore, it can be said that the duck "emigrated".

Match the type of of evidence for evolution with the correct example. analogous structures vestigial structures homologous struc
gogolik [260]

• 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.

What are the classification levels of humans for order, suborder, family, tribe, genus, and species? Group of answer choices Mam
Finger [1]

Answer: Human classification levels for order, suborder, family, tribe, genus and species are;

Primates, Primates, Haplorhini, Hominidae, Hominini, Homo, and sapiens , Hominidae, Hominini, Homo, and sapiens

Explanation:

Human taxonomy is the systematic classification of humans.

The order is primates include placenta animals including humans, that have good eyesight, flexible hands and feet, well developed brain and they include man, lemurs, apes e.t.c.

Suborder Haplorhini have a plate which cause a separation between the temporal fossa and eye socket.

Family Hominidae include group of animals that have well developed forearms and flattened digits nails.

Humans are called homo sapiens which means wise man. It is a Latin word...

Homo means man and sapiens means wise.

Choose the statement that describes processes of receptor-mediated endocytosis, exocytosis, and the changes in the membrane orga
Elis [28]

Answer:

a. Endocytosis involves the opsonization of a receptor and its ligand in clathrin-coated vesicles, along with the inward budding of the plasma membrane. In exocytosis, waste material is enveloped in a membrane that fuses with the interior of the plasma membrane via attachment proteins.

Explanation:

Endocytosis: entails the external binding of a ligand to its receptor which is located on the external side of the plasma membrane. The membrane buds inwardly for internalization to occur.

Exocytosis: material that has been processed inside the cell is transported by vesicles which fuse to the internal side of the plasma membrane and ultimately transported to the outside of the cell.
