The order cetacea includes modern-day whales, dolphins, and porpoises. these marine mammals share common characteristics that have led scientists to make a conclusion about their evolutionary history. cetaceans:

lack gills and must breathe air
give birth to live young rather than lay eggs
have fin bones that are similarly shaped to limb bones
have spines that flex up and down rather than side to side
the characteristics of cetaceans provide evidence that

a. they evolved from land mammals.

b. the theory of evolution is incorrect.

c. they evolved from air-breathing fish.

d. the bodies of their ancestors never changed.

Interpret the model. a three-part model with black right-arrows between the parts. left part: a large green apple-shaped component with a w-shaped indentation centered on top. a small blue apple-slice shape sits above the left indentation and an arrow points from the shape to the indentation. a small purple apple-slice shape and arrow sit above the right indentation and an arrow points from the shape to the indentation. middle part: a large green apple-shaped component with a square indentation centered on top. sitting in the left side of the indentation is a blue apple-slice shape with a flat bottom, fused to a purple apple-slice shape with a flat bottom on the right side of the indentation. right part: a large green apple-shaped component with a w-shaped indentation centered on top. an up-arrow is centered above the indentation pointing to a fused blue and purple apple-slice-shaped flat-bottom component sitting above the indentation. assigne "true" or "false" to the end of each statement. the model shows a shape change occurring in the enzyme after the substrate is bound in the active site. t/fthere are two products in this model. t? f there are three substrates in this model. t/f the model shows two different enzymes. t/f

According to piaget, children have acquired the cognitive skill of conservation when they're able to a. understand that six ounces of liquid in a jar and six ounces in an elongated tube are equal. b. understand the viewpoint of other people. c. relate objects around them to their own needs. d. realize that the term heavy describes an object one way and the term big describes it another way. it is not b nor c. did this 2 x wrong..

You decide that the introduction should also discuss the extremophiles that are referred to as the archaea. these single-cell organisms are considered "extremophiles" due to their ability to survive and reproduce in environmental conditions that would be hostile for most living organisms. archaea species have been isolated from highly acidic sulfur springs, ocean floor thermal vents with temperatures that exceed boiling, and subarctic ice well below freezing. while still considered to be prokaryotic, the archaea have numerous differences that place them apart from the bacteria. choose the characteristics that separate the archaea from other prokaryotic cells. select all that apply. view available hint(s) select all that apply. archaea lack true peptidoglycan in their cell walls. the morphology of the cell is rigid and is geometric in shape, similar to a sphere or cylinder. the cytoplasmic membrane lipids of archaea have branched or ringform hydrocarbon chains. all currently identified and characterized archaea have been linked as the causative agent to an animal or human disease.
