Answer:
D
Explanation:
The presence of homeotic genes shows that all of the listed organisms (mice, flies, humans etc) all evolved from a common ancestor.
(A) is wrong as the evidence of the same gene existing in vastly different species shows the evolutionary relationship between these organisms.
(B) is wrong as there is insufficient evidence to prove that flies are the precessor of humans. We do know that flies and humans have evolved from a common ancestor though.
(C) is non-conclusive as the passage said nothing about the gene allowing the species to have a higher chance of surviving and reproducing. Hence, an errornous claim.
(D) is the correct answer as from a common ancestor, all of the listed organisms undergo and accumulates mutation, undergoes selective pressures that resulted in divergent evolution (aka branching evolution that results in many noval species forming) after millions of years.
Answer: Their diet consists of small shrimp and crustaceans, including larvae. As they grow older, they graduate to fish, crabs, and other mollusks.
Explanation:
Respiration takes place in the mitochondria
Answer:
Adaption
Explanation:
In the case when the practice of cells turn on some enzymes production and turn off the others so that the response to the environment i.e. changed is known as an adaption.
In this, the organisms are adjusted according to the environment
So as per the given statement, the adaption is the answer and the same is to be considered
