Blizzard [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Derived trait

Explanation:

An ancestral (or primitive) trait/character is a feature inherited from the common ancestor of the species/group of interest, while derived traits are those that were absent in the last common ancestor of the group of interest. For example, considering mammals as the target group, the presence of hair is a shared derived trait relative to other vertebrates, i.e., amphibians, reptiles, and birds. However, this trait (hair) is ancestral for humans since the genetically closest species to humans (e.g., chimpanzees) also have hair.

Hope this helps :)

What happens to the energy stored in something that is thrown away
svet-max [94.6K]
The things that you throw away are buried in the ground. They are buried in something known as a 'landfill'. These are very deep holes which hold A LOT of trash. The problem is, there are only a few locations left in most western countries which actually have space to hold all of the waste people are generating.
