Answer:

The correct answer is option - b. reflects evolutionary history.

Explanation:

Biological classification is the method that helps researchers identify, naming, or defining an organism to study the relation and similarities between organism and group them on their characteristic features.

the classification system is considered best that gives an idea about the evolutionary history of the organisms. Modern classification systems use genetic analysis and phylogeny of the organisms to get an idea about evolutionary history.

Thus, the correct answer is option - B.

Listed in blue, please help!! Is biology and chemistry two different things and why?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Yes they are two different things!

Explanation:

Chemistry is more basic to existence-it is the study of the composition of matter and all associated structures, properties, and reactions. This includes, but is not limited to, biological matter. Biology meanwhile is focused entirely on biological organisms.

In the United States, mothers who live in poverty generally have babies with lower birthweight than those who do not live in pov
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is paired sample t-test.

Explanation:

Based on the given information, the mothers living in poverty in the United States give birth to underweight babies. The average weight of the babies given birth by women living in poverty is 2.8 kg. To examine the efficacy of a novel prenatal care program, a test was conducted by the CDC in which 30 mothers living in poverty and the weights of their babies were recorded.  

As the test is conducted in pairs, thus, paired sample t-test would be the appropriate hypothesis test. The paired t-test is performed when the dependent variable is measure spontaneously. In the given case, the women participating in the program and the number of babies with less birth weight are examined in pairs. Thus, as the sample are paired together, the correct answer would be paired sample t-test.

Speciation is the process by which new species are formed. Which of the following circumstances is most likely to lead to specia
trapecia [35]

Answer is A. A population becomes separated by environmental factors into two groups that do not reproduce with one another.

When a population of a species become geographically separated then gene flow between them stops. Over a period of time, the population may become genetically different in response to the natural selection due to different environments. Selection and genetic drift will act differently on these two separated populations. This will results into two separate species. This type of speciation is called allopatric speciation.

Can someone give me an explanation of Meiosis?
makvit [3.9K]
Hi there!

Meiosis is a type of reproduction where two divisions occur. It is when gametes, sex cells, divide. In prophase of meiosis, it is similar to that of mitosis, as in the spindle fibers develop as well as centrioles. First, homologous (pairs) of chromosomes line up in the center of the cell. Next, spindle fibers pull the pairs apart, leaving one chromosome of each pair on each side. Then, the nuclear material divides as the spindle fibers and centrioles go away. Lastly, the cytoplasm divides, leaving two cells. Meiosis two starts out with prophase again. In prophase, the DNA condenses and forms short chromosomes as well as spindle fibers and centrioles developing. Next, the chromosomes (there is only one chromosome, made up of two sister chromatids) line up in the center of the cell. Next, the spindle fibers pull the chromosomes apart, pulling one chromatid to each side of the cell. Then, the nuclear material divides and the spindle fibers and centrioles disappear. Lastly, the cytoplasm divides, leaving four cell in total.

Hope this helps!! :)
