Answer:

The correct answer would be homologous organs.

Homologous organs refer to the set of organs or body structure which share common ancestry or share the same internal structure but perform a different function.

They evolve as a result of divergent evolution, that is, they evolve to perform different functions as a result of adaptation to the different environment.

For example, the forelimb of horses, the hand of a human, flippers of the whale, the wing of a bird, wing of bat et cetera are made up of same sets of bones, however, they perform different functions.

As there are no answer choices, I'm going to answer this just based off my knowledge

Analogous structures suggest convergent evolution because they have both evolved from a set of species but for different reasons and from different causes.

One critical observation used by both lamarck and darwin in their research is
Ymorist [56]
One critical observation used by both Lamarck and Darwin in their research is about characteristics of inheritance. Although each claimed different sources of inheritance, they were in unison that in time, individuals acquire characteristics called inheritance. Lamarck believed that inheritance is passed from parents to offspring, while Darwin thought that it’s a product of natural selection.

What might account for the unusual results you obtained in the experiment in Part C? Select the two correct answers. Select the
irakobra [83]

Answer:

The correct options are B "The unusual F1 female is heterozygous for a reciprocal balanced translocation involving the chromosome with the apricot, bristle and clipped loci" and D "Independent assortment of non-compatible chromosome structures (i.e., translocated and normal chromosomes segregating together) in the F1 female led to the 90 eggs that aborted development"

Explanation:

The unexpected results obtained earlier can be attributed to the two factors listed above. At the time when meisois takes place, there is the process of independent assortment which leads to formation of zygotes. Due to the event of translocation, the eggs produced lacked some critical development genes.

Which of the following claims about the TYR, TRP2, and TRP1 mammalian genes is most likely to be accurate?
Illusion [34]

The TYR, TRP2, and TRP1 genes are located next to each other on a single chromosome and are organized into an operon is most likely to be accurate.

The option a is correct.

Explanation:

The genes for the Tyrosinase, TRP2 and TRP1 are located on the same chromosome and are operons. These are operons because they are controlled by same transcription factors on mRNA.

Tyrosinase enzyme is important for the synthesis of melanin, eye pigments and hair colour. The synthesis of all these is completed in three distinct reactions  catalysed by TRP1, TRP2 and Tyr genes. These work as operon and the protein product is almost 40% similar of the three genes.

The amount of melanin production depends on tyrosinase enzyme activity of all the three genes.

The genetic regulation is done by operons.

What would be of most importance to goblet cells and other glandular epithelia?
konstantin123 [22]

The given question is incomplete as options are not provided, however the options  are as follows :

- Golgi bodies

-lysosomes

-microvilli

-multiple nuclei

Answer:

The correct answer is - golgi bodies.

Explanation:

Goblet cells and glandular epithelial cells are cells that produce and secretes a specific type of products that are termed as the mucin to protect the skin and layer mucous membrane they place.

These cells are characterized by a large amount of Golgi body and endoplasmic reticulum as they are involved in the exocytic pathway which means they secrete, glycoproteins, mucin, and other substances. Golgi bodies needed to modify, synthesis, and secretion.

Thus, the correct answer is - golgi bodies.

what function does the limb serve in each animal? how are the limb bones of the four animals similar? based on these similaritie
slamgirl [31]

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.
