The correct answer to this question is a: metamorphosis. Many insects take on multiple forms through different parts of their lifecycle. For example, many lepidopteran species (i.e., butterflies) include a caterpillar juvenile stage. To reach the adult stage, the juvenile stage has to go through metamorphosis, where its adult form is strikingly different from its juvenile form.

What is the final acceptor of electrons in the electron transport chain?
aksik [14]

The final acceptor of electrons in the electron transport chain is "C" , that is oxygen.

The electron transport  chain is composed of a series of electron carriers that operate together to transfer electrons from donors, like NADH and FADH2, to acceptors such as O2.

The electrons flow from carriers with more negative reduction potentials to those with more positive potentials and eventually combine with O2 and H+ to form water. 

The difference in reduction potentials between oxygen and NADH is large, about 1.14 volts and makes possible the release of a great deal of energy.

Develop a hypothesis to explain why you think eurypterids developed legs even though they lived on the ocean floor.
expeople1 [14]

I think that since it lives on the ocean floor, at the deepest of the ocean. So anyway, the fin on the Eurypterids is still necessary but not that much, since they live on the ocean floor. Their movements mostly on the ocean floor. So fin would not help them "stick" to the floor. Also there are still gravity acts on the Eurypterids and the feet would help them move faster. Hope this helps.
