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.

remember to imagine that blood in the heart is color-coded according to its oxygenation status. What color of blood would you ex
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Red blood.

Explanation:

Red blood is for oxygenated blood, while blue blood is for deoxygenated blood.

The blood in Isabelle's left ventricle would be red, in other words, oxygenated. The left ventricle has oxygenated blood because this blood was first in the right ventricle. Then, it went to the pulmonary arteries, which led the blood to the capillaries close to the alveoli in the lungs. In this area, the deoxygenated blood dropped the CO₂ and took O₂ becoming oxygenated blood. Now, this blood is color-coded red and will go to the pulmonary venules, then to the pulmonary vein, and from there, it will go to the left atrium. Lastly, it will go to the left ventricle to start the systemic circulation, which is the one that distributes the oxygenated blood in the body.

Explain why polar and ionic R groups are hydrophilic.
Elenna [48]

Explanation:

They are hydrophobic. About 5 amino acids have polar side chains, R-groups which do not ionize or become positively or negatively charged. These R-groups are neither strongly hydrophilic nor hydrophobic. Atoms in long molecules, such as polypeptides, are not rigidly fixed in space or position
