Answer:

The correct answer is option E.

Explanation:

C4 plants are the plants that utilize the Hatch-Slack pathway or C4 carbon fixation type of photosynthesis process in which carbon dioxide into 4 carbon sugar to move to the Calvin cycle.

These plants are present more commonly in dry and hot climates such as deserts due to their ability to the fixed carbon at a low concentration of carbon dioxide and produce more energy when stomata are closed. Corn, pineapple sugarcane and many more are examples of the C4 plants.

Humans and hogs have differences in only 1 out of the 51 amino acids in their insulin proteins. Hogs and guinea pigs have differ
balu736 [363]

Humans are more closely related to hogs than hogs are to guinea pigs.

Explanation:

The difference in the amino acid sequence of a protein is used to know the  relation between organism i.e. how closely they are related.

It is known that proteins are the result of DNA sequence ie genes of the organism.

The gene or protein is compared between organisms to understand the evolutionary evidence and similarities between them.

The less is the difference the more is the two organisms closely related as in the case of hog and human which have only 1 amino acid difference in their insulin enzyme. While guinea pig is having  a difference of 17 amino acids so it is expected to be distantly related.

These relations helps the scientist to resolve the issues of crisis say insulin. They zero out the possibility of extracting the enzyme genes of possible organism and increase the yield.

There is less freedom of movement in the hip joint than in the shoulder joint because
lys-0071 [83]
Both joints are ball and socket joints, but the hip is much more mechanically constrained.  There are other bones and muscles that get in the way of the mobility of the hip joint.  This is partly because stability is more important in the hip joint due to its weight bearing function
