Analogy, in biology, similarity of function and superficial resemblance of structures that have different origins. For example, the wings of a fly, a moth, and a bird are analogous because they developed independently as adaptations to a common function—flying.
Analogies are the result of convergent evolution. Interestingly, though bird and bat wings are analogous as wings, as forelimbs they are homologous. Birds and bats did not inherit wings from a common ancestor with wings, but they did inherit forelimbs from a common ancestor with forelimbs.
Convergent evolution is the independent evolution of similar features in species of different lineages. Convergent evolution creates analogous structures that have similar form or function but were not present in the last common ancestor of those groups. The cladistic term for the same phenomenon is homoplasy.
Hope this helps.
Answer: Renewable Resources
Explanation: The sun can be used by solar panels, wind can be used by windmills, and hydroelectric energy comes from water. All of these are renewable resources.
It is likely to be a negative feedback. D is formed from B or C. D reduces the activity of the enzyme that converts A.
Answer:
- causing air molecules to vibrate
- air,liquids or solids
- At the north pole
- Heat energy
- conduction
- radiation
- Kinetic chemical energy
- in the bonds between atoms
- A nuclear reaction
- Electrons
- insulators
- conductors
Explanation:
when making sounds air molecules vibrates and these air molecules bump into one another causing sound to be produced.
The medium by which sound can be generated and transferred are air, liquids or solids
The sound would travel slowest at the north pole because the density of the areas
Another name for thermal energy is heat energy
The type of heat transfer that involve direct contact between two objects is conduction because it involves the transfer of heat between atoms which can be achieved by direct contact between elements containing the atoms
sunbathers warming up in the bright sun gets heat energy via Radiation from the sun
Kinetic chemical energy is released when bonds form in a chemical reaction because potential chemical energy exists between bonds of atoms
potential chemical energy is stored in the bonds between atoms
when chemical energy is released a nuclear reaction is formed
kinetic electrical energy is caused by the flow of electrons
materials that cannot carry electric energy are called insulators and they also inhibit the flow of electrical energy in them
Materials that can carry electric energy are called conductors
