Why are indices better than simple measurements for comparing fossil specimens?
damaskus [11]

Answer:

Indices are used to study fossil specimens and compare them against each other. They are based on concept of ratio hence better than simple measurements when it comes to comparative analysis. They compensate for the problems caused by other variable factors like size or specimen.

For example, to estimate if an organism is long or round headed simple measurement of cranial length or breadth can be done and the result can be given according to the selected parameter. However some specimens will have longer breadth than length and some will have longer length than breadth. So, it is better to measure both the parameters and find out their ratio. Hence, cranial index is used which is given by: (Cranial breadth/Cranial length)*100.

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Anterior end

Explanation:

You have a pretty good shot at guessing this, because the earthworm has very little going on at the posterior end except the anus. And you probably saw this in lab, too.

I've attached a picture of the earthworm anatomy. Worms can't smell in the strictest sense, but they can use their receptors as kind of a combo smell-taste thing, and those are located in the anterior end.
