2. Suppose a paleontologist discovered a fossil skull that he believes might be distantly related to primates. Unlike true prima

tes, the face is not quite flat and the eyes do not face completely forward. The paleontologist would most likely conclude that the animal lacked (1 point) a) the ability to form extended family groups. b) the ability to grip branches precisely. c) the ability to manipulate tools. d) the ability to judge the location of tree branch.

Answer:

d) the ability to judge the location of tree branch.

Explanation:

An anatomical feature for the primates group is the stereoscopic vision, they can recognize shapes because theirs eyes face forward with overlap in the visual fields, as an advantage for an animal that moves in the tops of big trees. Different to the fossil skull because its eyes do not face completely forward. Forward facing eyes give better depth perception and allow  better view of what is in front therefore there is less need for a longer snout and the faces are flatter different to the fossil.

It has been speculated that the face flatter and the eyes face forward have evolved to aid the process of moving through trees from branch to branch and that forward facing eyes are ideal for depth perception because of the need to be able to see exactly what is in front .  this is called as “arboreal locomotion theory”. The fossil discovered couldn´t be very good moving through trees.

In three to five sentences, describe the advantages and disadvantages of these maps in modeling mitosis.
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Mitosis involves in cell division.

Explanation:

Mitosis may be defined as a process of cell division which results in the formation of two daughter cells each from a parent cell and each cell having having the same number of chromosomes and chromosomes of the same type as that of the parent nucleus.

The main difference between meiosis and mitosis of a nucleus cell is that it involves only one cell division. And so the cell goes by the steps of prophase, then metaphase, then anaphase and finally telophase. The specialized cells could not survive independently to each other, so they have to develop some complex system of communications like the circulatory system and the nervous system. In this way they can survive. If one of the system dies, entire organisms is more likely to follow.
