Cloud seeding
Another instance where supercooled and mixed-phase clouds are studied extensively is related to cloud seeding and weather modification. Cloud seeding involves the addition of aerosol, such as silver iodide aerosol, that modifies the phase and size distribution of hydrometeors. The goal of cloud seeding is to alter the natural development of the cloud to enhance precipitation, suppress hail, dissipate fog, or reduce lightning. Various cloud seeding techniques are employed, as particles are released from rockets, aircraft, or ground. The seeding of ice-phase clouds can induce the phase transition from a supercooled water cloud to one composed of ice. In the case of dynamic cloud seeding, the purpose is to stimulate vertical air motions through increased buoyancy caused by the release of latent heat of freezing (Hobbs, 1975; Cotton and Pielke, 1995).
Answer:
Homologies - phenotypic and genetic similarities due to shared ancestry
Analogies (homoplastic) - similarities between two species due to convergent evolution instead of descent from a common ancestor with the same trait
In general, organisms that share very similar morphologies or similar DNA sequences are likely to be more closely related than organisms with vastly different structures or sequences. In some cases, however, the morphological divergence between related species can be great and their genetic divergence small (or vice versa).
(plants very different, bc diverged 50 mil years ago)
If internal anatomy, physiology, and reproductive systems are very dissimilar, probably analogous.
The more elements that are similar in two complex structures, the more likely it is that the structures evolved from a common ancestor. If genes in two organisms share many portions of their nucleotide sequences, it is likely that the genes are homologous.:
The answer is rock and mineral particles bcoz it is only option which is not living thing from start
