Answer: C.) Cladistics is based purely on the shared characters between organisms and their ranking in evolutionary history.

 

Explanation:

Phylogeny is the evolutionary science which derives a relationship among the ancient species with their descendants based upon common genetic, physiological and morphological characteristics. Cladistics represent the study of a group of organisms which exhibit a common ancestor. A clade includes organisms having a common ancestors and exhibit similar traits in them. A clade is sufficient to include the organisms in a phylogenic tree based upon their evolutionary history.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C

Explanation:

Cladistics is the approach used to classify the organism based on their shared characters on the basis of which the closely related organisms are grouped together.

The evolutionary biologist studies the physiological, genealogical, molecular and morphological characters on the basis of which the phylogenetic trees are constructed. In phylogenetic trees, the organisms are arranged according to their evolutionary history.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer

The delicate connective tissue that surrounds the skeletal muscle fibers and ties adjacent muscle fibers together is the
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Endomysium

Explanation:

Endomysium is a thin layer of loose connective tissue which surrounds an individual myocyte or muscle fiber. Collagen is one of the most abundant protein found in this layer. Endomysium also connects the near by muscle fibers to each other. These fibers are then able to exchange various ions necessary for muscle contraction.

Above the level of endomysium, there is perimysium which forms the covering of a bundle of muscle fibers. Even above this level is epimysium which covers the whole muscle.

why does the presence of 22 large herbivore species at Mpala seem to contradict the competitive exclusion principle Dr. Pringle
stealth61 [152]

Dr. Pringle suggests that there's only very few large herbivorous species that can survive in certain area. The reason behind his claim is that according to him there will be only enough food for few large species, so there's natural limitations in the food sources, as there should be enough to support them in order for them to survive.

On the other hand, in Mpala, there's 22 large herbivorous species, which directly contradicts Dr. Pringle's hypothesis. The reason why so many large species of herbivores an survive in Mpala and always have enough food for all of them, is that they have all specialized in eating certain types of plants or parts of plants, thus they are not direct competition to one another, and there's always enough food for all of them.
