Answer:

Understanding carbon jargon is all about making up the balance: of the emissions caused, as well as what we can do about them. By knowing about carbon balance and using the right terms, decision-makers in the travel industry can take the necessary measures to set and achieve their carbon goals. Strictly speaking all these terms have different definitions according to the IPCC, the UN body for climate science. However, companies often use them interchangeably, without always specifying their application. As a result, their climate commitments vary widely. This poses a real challenge to distinguish between serious climate action (that is aligned with the Paris Agreement) and so-called ‘greenwashing’. Companies have a responsibility to communicate clearly about their commitments. Sustainability action with all its dimensions should be transparently quantified, documented and audited to be sound. This not only spares you from allegations of greenwashing but also signals that you take your responsibility seriously and offers a real chance to stand out against others in your industry. Here are some commonly used terms and their definitions.

Answer:

a. resolve the branching patterns (evolutionary history) of the Lophotrochozoa

b. (the same, it is repeated)

Explanation:

Nemertios (ribbon worms) and foronids (horseshoe worms) are closely related groups of lofotrocozoa. Lofotrocozoans, or simply trocozoans (= tribomastic celomados with trocophoric larva) are a group of animals that includes annelids, molluscs, endoprocts, brachiopods and other invertebrates. They represent a crucial superphylum for our understanding of the evolution of bilateral symmetry animals. However, given the inconsistency between molecular and morphological data for these groups, their origins were not entirely clear. In the work linked above, the first records of genomes of the Nemertine worm Notospermus geniculatus and the foronid Phoronis australis are presented, along with transcriptomes along the adult bodies. Our phylogenetic analyzes based on the genome place Nemertinos as the sister group of the taxon that contains Phoronidea and Brachiopoda. It is shown that lofotrocozoans share many families of genes with deuterotomes, suggesting that these two groups retain a common genetic repertoire of bilaterals that do not possess ecdisozoans (arthropods, nematodes) or platizoos (platelets, sydermats). Comparative transcriptomics demonstrates that foronid and brachiopod lofophores are similar not only morphologically, but also at the molecular level. Although the lofophore and vertebrates show very different cephalic structures, the lofophorees express the vertebrate head genes and neuronal marker genes. This finding suggests a common origin of the bilaterial pattern of the head, although different types of head will evolve independently in each lineage. In addition, we recorded innate immunity expansions of lineage-specific and toxin-related genes in both lofotrocozoa and deuterostomes. Together, this study reveals a dual nature of lofotrocozoans, in which the conserved and specific characteristics of the lineage shape their evolution.
