Answer: The correct answer is- .b.Archaeopteryx fossils share traits with both birds and reptiles.

Archaeopteryx was a primitive bird that had feathers, but its skeleton looks like a  small dinosaur ( which belonged to reptiles). It had a bony tail, teeth, and claws on its wings, resembling a reptile, which have made scientists claim that Archaeopteryx fossils share traits with both birds as well as reptiles.  

Due to this, it is considered as a missing link between reptiles and birds.

Thus, option B) is the right answer.

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

To study the importance of the RNA telomer element, we can evaluate it by generating an in vitro state where all the purified components are included, organizing two groups, one of them will have an RNAase and the other will not, if it is observed that the telomeres extend to the component of the RNA, in the set where there is no RNAase, longer telomeres could be observed, if there were no influence of the RNA, the length in both groups would be the same
