The answer is: homologous; common; homoplastic.
<span>The bones in the wings of birds and bats are <u>homologous</u> because they derived from a <u>common</u> ancestor, while the wings are <u>homoplastic</u> traits. Homologous structures are similar structures shared by different groups and that are derived from a common ancestor. The similar anatomy of bones in the wings of birds and bats is inherited from a common ancestor of tetrapods (to which birds and bats belong). However, wings are not inherited from the common ancestor of birds and bats. Therefore, wins are homoplastic traits (analogous structures) because they have similar function but they are not inherited from the common ancentor.</span>
Answer:
There are two types of cell division: mitosis and meiosis. Most of the time when people refer to “cell division,” they mean mitosis, the process of making new body cells. Meiosis is the type of cell division that creates egg and sperm cells. Mitosis is a fundamental process for life. Mitosis is the division of a cell into two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell. Meiosis is the division of a germ cell into four sex cells (e.g. egg or sperm), each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell. Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells. This process is required to produce egg and sperm cells for sexual reproduction. Meiosis begins with a parent cell that is diploid, meaning it has two copies of each chromosome. Mitosis gives two nuclei, and hence two cells, while meiosis gives four. Mitosis gives identical cells to each other and to the mother cell, while meiosis leads to genetic variation due to crossing over and independent assortment. Mitosis includes one division, while meiosis includes two.
Answer:
An organism with an xx karyotype would have a chromosome phenotype
Complete question:
You will find the image of the skulls in the attached files.
Answer:
1) 2 similarities between each of the skulls might be the presence of the nasal spine, and the interdental space.
2) The size of the skull seems to be the most noticeable change in skull anatomy between the dawn horse and the modern horse.
Explanation:
- Each of the nasal bones in horses ends in a protuberance named "the nasal spine". These spines converge in the distal portion of the bone. These spines and the incisive bone delimitates the space called the naso-incisor notch. In the attached figure you will see the nasal bone in red and the nasal spines. This structure is present in all the skulls in the same position.
- The interdental space is the space left between the front teeth and the back teeth. It is useful to recognize a male from a female in modern horses. This space can be found in all the skulls. You will see it in blue in the image.
The biggest change in skulls between the dawn horse and the modern horse is the size. The skull keeps the original shape or very similar shape but varies in length and height.
