Answer:

Why are embryos used in medical research?

Stem cells can be obtained at the early stages of embryo development; these cells are called human embryonic stem cells (hESC). They also could be used in research to develop drugs to treat serious diseases, or to repair organs following a stroke or heart attack.

Explain how goal of today’s classification system differs from earlier systems
gladu [14]

Classification systems previously were having very different goals than modern classification systems. If we look at old eras, scientists like Aristotle  and Theophrastus  tried to classify organisms on the basis of apparent characteristics, habitat and simple other traits.

Old classification systems had alot of errors and flaws. For example they classified fish and whale in one group because they lived in water, now we know fish is amphibian while whale is mammal.

So we can say that the goal o earlier classification system were just to make groups of organisms on the basis of External features.

Goal of modern classification system:

Modern classification approach was started by Linnaeus. It focuses more on biological delimitation and evolutionary histories than mere external characteristics. It organizes organisms in groups in such a way that grouping reflects their evolutionary relatedness. It is not just specie level but also focuses on sub-specie and population level classification.


Thus modern goal is better in many terms and is more reliable than old classification goals.


Hope it helps!

Can molecules made from the same atom form ionic bonds. Why?
Digiron [165]
No. Ionic bonds form when atoms with opposite charges bond with one another. Atoms develop charges by gaining or losing electrons. For a given element, the atoms will (usually) have a tendency to gain OR lose a particular number of electrons, so they can only form ions of a particular charge that is either positive or negative.
