The correct answer to this question is this one:

The function of the limb serve to the four animals is that it supports the backbone. These four animals are all vertebrates. This means that they have backbones that supported their whole body posture.

Answer:

The humans use this limb to grab things, body language, and sign language.

The dogs use this limb for all kinds of weight-bearing activities like walking, jumping, running et cetera.

Birds use this to fly and whales use it as flapper.

The limbs of all these four animals are the example of homologous organs that is, they all are similar in structure but adapted to perform different functions during the course of evolution.

For example, in all four organisms, the limb is made up of the same set of bones such as humerus, radius, ulna, carpals, metacarpals, and phalanges.

Homology in structure shows that they must have evolved from a common ancestor and diverge to perform different functions as an adaptation to the contrasting environment.

What two parts of a nucleotide do not ?change throughout the structure of DNA a. Five-Carbon Sugar and Phosphate Group b. Five-C
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

a. Five-Carbon Sugar and Phosphate

Explanation:

A nucleotide can be defined as an organic molecule which forms the building block of nucleic acid such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA).

Basically, nucleotide comprises of the following parts;

1. Nitrogenous base: this includes adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C) which are mainly found in the DNA while adenine (A), guanine (G), uracil (U) and cytosine (C) are found in the RNA.

2. A phosphate group.

3. A penrose sugar: it is either deoxyribose in DNA or ribose in RNA.

The two parts or chemical components of a nucleotide which do not change throughout the structure of DNA are;

I. Five-Carbon Sugar also known as deoxyribose and it has hydrogen on its second carbon.

II. Phosphate: this is the structural backbone that provides support to DNA.

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer: Add a different diet and maybe add an animal. If you put a bigger water bowl than the cage will become humid. If you change things about the terrain, its a desert so watering more plants and planting trees will make the ground more fertile to other plants. If you continue to take care of the plants until they are able to grow and reproduce. After enough time, where used to be a desert there will be a forest.

devlian [24]

Answer:

C: competitive exclusion

Explanation:

<em>The competitive exclusion principle states that organisms living in the same community while competing for the same resources cannot coexist at a constant population rate. </em>

Once some of the species within the community get a slight competitive edge over other species, they become dominant and this might lead to the extinction of the weaker species in the long run.

<u>In the experimental plot, the removal of sea stars provided mussel and barnacle with a competitive advantage over other species within the community (sea stars are predators of mussels and barnacles). This led to the dominance of mussel and barnacle and the eventual extinction of other species within the experimental plot as compared to the control plot.</u>

The correct answer is C.
