A scientist studying fossils, found that identical freshwater reptiles about 1 meter long were found in both South America and A

frica. Since, these animals couldn’t have swum hundreds of miles across the Atlantic Ocean, what is the best explanation for how fossils of this creature were found in both places?
options:

A:The animals evolved to become the same exact species even though they lived in different environments.


B:The animals walked from Africa to South America because there used to be large valley that separated the continents, which has now been filled by the Atlantic Ocean.


C:The ancestors of this creature used to be able to fly. They flew from Africa to South America and then evolved into the freshwater reptiles the scientist discovered.


D:South America and Africa used to form a single landmass that later split apart. The fossils found on both continents shared a single habitat.

Answer:

D

Explanation: this would make sense because they could not have evolved to become the same. Evolution does not work like that . The animals would not walk or fly they are water creatures and if they did that they would not evolve back down to fish .

Which events can cause an ecological disturbance? Select the three correct answers.
kvasek [131]

A, B and C are the events that will cause an ecological disturbance.

Rationale:

A. Introduction of a new species: When a new specie is introduced, it increases the competition in ecosystem with the native species for food, water, space and shelter. This affects the reproductive success of the native species and thus the dynamics of ecosystem.

B. Climate change: Climate change is different from a simple change of weather. The best example would be of Antarctica where the ice is melting fast due to the global warming. The native species find it harder to adapt to the warm temperatures.

C. Late spring snowstorm: Spring is the season where the plants grow and animals shed their fur. When snowstorms occur in this season they harm these plants and animals that live there.

Select the correct sequence concerning glucose catabolism. glycolysis - pyruvate - acetyl - coa - electron transport chain - kre
Natali [406]
The correct sequence is; Glycolysis-pyruvate-acetyl CoA-krebs cycle-electron transport chain. 
Glycolysis is a sequence of reactions for the breakdown of glucose to two molecules of pyruvic acid under aerobic conditions, Krebs cycle is a series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to release stored energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into carbon dioxide and chemical energy in the energy carriers, while electron transport chain involves a series of complexes that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via redox reactions and couples this transfer with the transfer of protons across a membrane.

Which of these finding suggests a serious illness from a urinalysis?
Roman55 [17]
Although there should be choices in this question, many findings in the urinalysis can point out a serious illness as long as it is clinically correlated. The color of the urine such as tea-colored urine may be a sign of obstruction of the biliary tree such that in choledocholithases or stones in the common bile duct. The consistency of the urine such as when it is hazy may indicate infection or albuminuria. Sugars present in the urine may indicate diabetes mellitus. Increased WBC (or pus cells) and RBC in the urine may point to a urinary tract infection (pyelonephritis) or glomerulonephritis. A positive protein in the urine may indicate albuminuria characteristic of nephrotic syndrome.
