Complete Question:

1. Organisms don’t all reproduce the same way. However, by comparing the ____ of these organisms, many similarities between them are ____

2. of these organisms, many similarities between them are revealed. These similarities suggest that they’re ___ linked. This type of study is called developmental biology.

Group of answer choices.

A) Cells B) Embryos C) Mode of reproduction D) Evolutionarily. E). Revealed.

Answer:

embryo; revealed; evolutionarily.

Explanation:

Reproduction can be defined as a biological process which typically involves living organisms producing an offspring.

Basically, there are two (2) methods of reproduction and these are;

I. Asexual reproduction: it involves the cloning of a living organism to produce an offspring because there is only a single parent.

II. Sexual reproduction: it involves the combination of the genome (gamete) of a male and female living organism during fertilization.

It's a fact that all living organisms do not reproduce the same way.

However, by comparing the embryo of these organisms, many similarities between them are revealed. These similarities suggest that they’re evolutionarily linked.

Hence, we refer to this type of study as developmental biology

How do frogs utilize extensor and flexor muscles in order to swim, jump, and do other frog things efficiently; include specific
ahrayia [7]
<span>The structure of the feet and legs varies greatly among frog species, depending in part on whether they live primarily on the ground, in water, in trees or in burrows. Frogs must be able to move quickly through their environment to catch prey and escape predators, and numerous adaptations help them to do so. Most frogs are either proficient at jumping or are descended from ancestors that were, with much of the musculoskeletal morphology modified for this purpose. The tibia, fibula, and tarsals have been fused into a single, strong bone, as have the radius and ulna in the fore limbs (which must absorb the impact on landing). The metatarsals have become elongated to add to the leg length and allow the frog to push against the ground for a longer period on take-off. The illium has elongated and formed a mobile joint with the sacrum which, in specialist jumpers such as ranids and hylids, functions as an additional limb joint to further power the leaps. The tail vertebrae have fused into a urostyle which is retracted inside the pelvis. This enables the force to be transferred from the legs to the body during a leap </span>
<span>The muscular system has been similarly modified. The hind limbs of ancestral frogs presumably contained pairs of muscles which would act in opposition (one muscle to flex the knee, a different muscle to extend it), as is seen in most other limbed animals. However, in modern frogs, almost all muscles have been modified to contribute to the action of jumping, with only a few small muscles remaining to bring the limb back to the starting position and maintain posture. The muscles have also been greatly enlarged, with the main leg muscles accounting for over 17% of the total mass of the frog.</span>
