C) A is probably much more closely related to B than to C.
Because A/B have 95% DNA in common, but A/C only have 50% in common.
Answer: Option E) the products have less potential energy than the reactants
Explanation:
Though the actual graph is not displayed, but, whenever reactants occupy a position higher than the product on the graph of reaction coordinate vs time taken, it means the reactants (AB+CD) have molecules with higher energy bonds than the products AC +BD
Thus, the reaction of AB + CD to yield AC+BD will occur spontaneously with the release of energy.
Answer:
1. Adaptive radiation: A pattern of evolution in which slightly different species evolve from one common ancestor.
2. Coevolution: A pattern of evolution in which two species evolve in relation to each other.
3. Convergent evolution: A pattern of evolution in which similar characteristics evolve between two unrelated species.
4. Divergent evolution: A pattern of evolution in which very different species evolve from one common ancestor.
5. Gradualism: A theory of evolution that states that a species evolves by consistent, small, steps.
6. Punctuated equilibrium: A theory of evolution that states that a species evolves in spurts of rapid change and then no change.
The ecosystem requires a constant input of energy because energy cannot be stored. The enrgy always gets converted for supporting life in the ecosystem. Some amount of energy is also lost during this conversion. So if there is not a constant supply of energy, then the ecosystem will ultimately breakdown. In case of humans, the energy is received by consuming food. The energy of the food geets converted to the enrgy that helps a human being to complete his daily chores. So energy is being lost at every step. To regain this energy the humans have to eat food regularly. This way the humans need a constant supply of energy to survive. It is the same in the case of all living things in the ecosystem.
