Tapeworms are hermaphroditic, like the Planaria. The difference between them is that Tapeworms can reproduce sexually, either through self-fertilization<span> or cross-</span>fertilization<span> with another tapeworm, or asexually, by breaking off proglottid segments at the end of the trunk. While the 
</span>Planaria are sexual and asexual only. Sexual planaria possess both testicles and ovaries. One of their gametes will combine with the gamete of another planarian. Each planarian transports its excretion to the other planarian, giving and receiving sperm. Eggs develop inside the body and are shed in capsules. Weeks later, the eggs hatch and grow into adults

Part E Your molecular clock model resembles another branching chart, the phylogenetic chart, which you’ve used in this unit. Rev
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The phylogenetic graph uses several types of variables to be formed, while other models use only one type of variable.

Explanation:

To create a phylogenetic chart, matrices with data on the studied species are used. These data are composed of morphological, chemical and / or genetic information that allow a detailed investigation about the ancestry of each species, in addition to allowing the correct grouping based on this ancestry and evolution.

A phylogenetic graph is different from other molecular models due to the number of data considered by it, since other models, such as the molecular clock, for example, only consider genetic based information.

Each isotope has a special name derived from Latin (protium, deuterium, and tritium). What structural feature do these names ref
Eduardwww [97]

An isotope of any element is the same, with a variation in the neutrons of the nucleus.

The mass number change but the atomic number doesn't.

In this case, protium, deuterium, and tritium are all hydrogen isotopes.

Protium is 1H or Hydrogen-1 is without neutrons.

Deuterium is 2H  or Hydrogen-2 has one neutron.

Tritium is 3H or Hydrogen-3 has two neutrons.

Which statement best describes the breakdown of food in the digestive system?
Oksanka [162]
Answer: The second option.
Carbohydrate digestion starts in the mouth and protein digestion starts in the stomach.

Carbohydrate digestion starts in the mouth by the mechanical activity of chewing and saliva from the salivary amylase, an enzyme in the salivary glands.
Protein digestion occurs in the stomach where three main enzymes, pepsin secreted by the stomach, and trypsin and chymotrypsin secreted by the pancreas. The enzymes would break down the food proteins into polypeptides and into smaller and smaller pieces until they are amino acids.
