Answer: The question is not complete, here is the completed part gotten from other website.

Mammals and turtles are more closely related than are lungfishes and sharks. Hagfishes, lungfishes, and frogs have lobed fins.

Lancelets and coelacanths are more closely related than are chimaeras and coelacanths.

Organism (a) is a common ancestor of all chordates.

Descendants of organism (d) have limbs with digits. birds and ray-finned fishes have a notochord and jaws.

rays and frogs have vertebrae. organism (c) is a common ancestor of lampreys and lungfishes?

The correct options are;

Mammals and turtles are more closely related than are lungfishes and sharks.

Descendants of organism (d) have legs.

Rays and frogs have a vertebral column.

-Birds and ray-finned fishes have a notochord and jaws

Explanation:

This is because phylogenetic tree is a branching diagram that entails different evolutionary relationships that occur between organisms or biological species having common decent or ancestors and showing similar and differences in their genetic characteristics or traits. It shows how species evolved from their ancestors.

If the two traits that Mendel looked at in his dihybrid cross of smooth yellow peas with wrinkled green peas had been controlled
nalin [4]

Answer:

c. Would have deviated from the 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio

Explanation:

<em>If two genes are linked together on the same chromosome, the phenotype of the F2 generation would have deviated from 9:3:3:1.</em>

Two genes whose loci are close on the same chromosome are said to be linked. Linked genes have higher frequency of recombination than genes that are not linked.

<u>Hence, while genes that are not linked assort independently to produce 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio at F2, linked genes do not assort independently and the higher frequency of recombination ensures that they standard phenotypic ratio is deviated from.</u>

The correct option is c.

What is the difference between a vascular and a nonvascular plant? In your answer, discuss how water moves in each type of plant
Otrada [13]

Vascular plants have a vascular system while nonvascular plants have NO vascular system.

Explanation:

The vascular system is made of phloem – that transports food- and xylem- that transports water and minerals- in the higher plants. Examples of these higher plants are like trees and shrubs. These plants can take up water and nutrients from the soil and transport them up the plants to the leaves.

Lower plants have no vascular system (avascular). They mainly absorb food and water readily from their environment even through their leaves. This is why these plants are mainly found in humid areas like waterways, like canals. Examples of such lower plats are ferns and mosses.

What is the current theory about the formation of the solar system?
Blizzard [7]

nebular hypothesis

The most widely accepted theory of planetary formation, known as the nebular hypothesis, maintains that 4.6 billion years ago, the Solar System formed from the gravitational collapse of a giant molecular cloud which was light years across. Several stars, including the Sun, formed within the collapsing cloud.
