Based on information from the cladogram and the data table shown below, which of the following best describes the evolutionary history of rabbits?
Claws/Nails Feathers Jaws Lungs Mammary glands
Bird X X X X
Hagfish
Lizard X X X
Rabbit X X X X
Salamander X X
Tiger X X X X
Trout X
Image depicts a cladogram with hagfish, trout, salamander, lizard, bird, rabbit, and tiger represented. Trout diverge from hagfish with the introduction of jaws. Salamander diverges from trout with the introduction of lungs. Lizard diverges from salamander with the introduction of claws and nails. Bird diverges from lizard with the introduction of feathers. Rabbit and tiger diverge from lizard with the introduction of mammary glands.
They are more closely related to tigers than they are to birds.
They became able to produce mammary glands as a result of lacking feathers.
They evolved into a separate species due to the presence of mammary glands.
They share a more recent common evolutionary ancestor with salamanders than they do with lizards.
Answer:
A. They are more closely related to tigers than they are to birds.
Explanation:
Short answer: I took the test
Actual explanation:
-If you look at the first graphic that you have, you will notice that rabbits and tigers have all the same boxes checked off. AND birds and rabbits only have 3 checked off.
-salamanders actually have less in common with rabbits than they do with lizards, salamanders have 3 things in common, and lizards only have 2, proving option D. wrong. (if you are wondering where I got that evidence, look at the chart) AND if you look at the cladogram, lizards are closer to the rabbits than salamanders meaning that lizards have a more common ancestor (I think?) But nevertheless, it it still wrong, because of the above evidence.
- The options with mammary glands are also incorrect for these reasons, B. makes no sense, literally no sense, why would not be able to produce mammary glands with feathers, so B, is automatically out. With option C, rabbits did not evolve into a whole new species, it is the clade showing that tigers and rabbits both have mammary glands. There is no showing of a new species on the cladogram, and I don't think that it makes sense to evolve into a whole species just because of mammary glands.
- Now, if you look at the cladogram again, you wills see that tigers and rabbits are closest together, meaning that they are closely related. BUT, birds and rabbits are also the closet together, so, refer back to point a, that the chart shows that birds only share 3 out of the 4 that rabbits and tigers share. so that's that.
So after doing the work, option A. Rabbits are more closely related to tigers than they are birds. (and If you read my long explanation THANK YOU I put time and effort into it to make it accurate :))
Hope this helped :)) ~addison

1 Recycle and dispose of trash properly.
2 Use environmentally-friendly modes of transportation.
3 Save energy at home and at work
Explanation:
membrane molecules that use the energy of atp to move ions against a concentration gradient are called
Membrane molecules that use the energy of ATP to move ions against a concentration gradient are called PUMPS. This type of transport is called active transport.
Active transport is a type of transport that requires energy (e.g, ATP) to move molecules and/or ions against a concentration gradient.
In active transport, specific membrane transporter proteins referred to as pumps are used to move ions against an electrochemical gradient across biological membranes.
These protein pumps are fundamental for creating electrochemical gradients that are subsequently used by cells for diverse purposes (e.g., muscle contraction).

In a forest community, a shelf fungus and a slug live on the side of a decaying tree trunk. The fungus digests and absorbs materials from the tree, while the slug eats algae growing on the outside of the trunk. These organisms do not compete with one another because they occupy
A. the same habitat, but different niches
B. the same niche, but different habitats
C. the same niche and the same habitat
D. different habitats and different niches
The shelf fungus and slug in the forest community do not compete with each other as they have the same habitat, but different niches. Thus, option A is correct.
What are habitat and niche?Habitat is defined as the place where the species resides while the niche is the role of the specific organisms or the species in that particular habitat or environment. The niche includes the impact of the species on the habitat.
The shelf fungus and the slug both live on the side of the tree and hence have the same habitat but the fungus takes minerals from the tree and the slug from the algae making them differ in the niche.
Therefore, the fungus and slug have the same habitat but different niches.

Making changes to the secondary structure of hair has a different outcome than making changes to its tertiary or quaternary structure. How does this outcome differ
The outcome differs in the way that the protein folds itself at each level. The changes in the way that it folds lead to:
modifications in the function, shape or in the combination with other proteins.
Protein has different levels of structure. Each of them is related to how the amino acids and other molecules interact with each other. Hair is made of proteins, so if one of the structures is affected, the hair is too.
Let's analyse what happens in each level of structure:
In the case of the primary structure, which is the sequence of amino acids, the modification will give a non-functional protein that will not fold into the following structural level. So, there won't be new hair.For the secondary structure, a modification here can lead to a different folding. In other words, it can change from an α helix to a β pleated sheet or the other way round. This will give a different shape to the hair, like curly or straight.A modification in the tertiary structure modifies the interaction of the R groups in the protein, so the three-dimensional structure that this interaction gives will change, giving a different type of hair.Lastly, if we modify the quaternary structure, the protein won't interact with some proteins, but it may interact with others.
In conclusion, the modification of the secondary structure changes the interaction between the elements of the protein giving hair with different shapes.

As he is running with a constant velocity, so there's no change in velocity and Acceleration is defined as " Rate of change in Velocity " and since there's no change in velocity and direction (because he is moving in a straight road) hence Acceleration is 0.

Answer:
1)Protein is composed of amino acid.
We can identify protein by sequencing amino acids in peptide.
Carbohydrates is primarily avilabke energy source.
2) Proteins and nucleic acids are made up of C H O But carbohydrates and lipids consist of C H O N.
3)Nucleic acid DNA and RNA store and transmit genetic information from one generation to next generation.
Nucleic acid as present in body therefore not considered as essential nutrients.So dietary sources are plant and animal foods like meat fish vegetables etc.
Suppose white and brown fur in a species of rodent were due to different alleles at the same gene. An F1 cross between true breeding brown and white lines is set up. What evidence would best support white fur being dominant to brown
An F1 cross between true breeding brown and white lines is set up. What evidence would best support white fur being dominant to brown -----
The best evidence to show that white fur being dominant is when all the offspring after the cross are white instead of brown
They are therefore expected to produce heterozygous lines.
The evidence that would best support white fur being dominant is when all the lines produced are white despite being heterozygous.
A dominant trait is known to mask the expression of other traits.

please help me with insects with out piercing and sucking mouth parts and the reason why. please help me I really request.
Answer:
Insects have a range of mouthparts, adapted to particular modes of feeding. The earliest insects had chewing mouthparts. Specialization has mostly been for piercing and sucking, although a range of specializations exist, as these modes of feeding have evolved a number of times (for example, mosquitoes and aphids (which are true bugs) both pierce and suck, however female mosquitoes feed on animal blood whereas aphids feed on plant fluids. In this page, the individual mouthparts are introduced for chewing insects. Specializations are generally described thereafter.

Fill out the data table below with the range of each factor that will produce the optimal number of oxygen bubbles.
The optimal ranges for the formation of oxygen bubbles vary between each plant, however, only water, c02, and temperature are limiting factors for photosynthesis.
This question is based on observations made during the course of an experiment designed to measure the optimal ranges at which oxygen bubbles form, given that these are an indication of photosynthesis.
Due to this, the information given will be generalized. Firstly, there is no exact optimal range of light for the formation of oxygen bubbles (photosynthesis) given that this is not a limiting factor.
Excess of light will have no effect on photosynthesis, only the lack of light can cause negative effects, therefore any light past the minimum threshold is fine.
On the other hand, water, light, and C02 are in fact limiting factors and have optimal ranges. For water, this optimal range varies greatly and therefore I cannot offer a general value, but an excess of water will "drown" plants by not allowing the formation of air pockets in the soil.
C02 sits at an optimal range of 1,000-1,300ppm for the best results. Lower concentrations cause a lower rate of photosynthesis given that it is the primary substrate for the process to begin. At too high levels, plants will have to adapt which can slow the process.
Finally, temperature is also a limiting factor for photosynthesis. Its exact value cannot be given since it varies greatly between plant species.
However, in general, terms, since it is an enzyme-dependent reaction, we can apply the general temperature at which enzymes function best which is around 37 degrees.
