The diagram below shows four fossils found in different time periods. Fossil A is the oldest and fossil D is the youngest.

Fossil A is from a four-toed animal and shares many similarities with fossil B. Likewise, fossil B shares many similarities with fossil C, and fossil C shares many similarities with fossil D, which came from a hoofed species. Additionally, fossil A and fossil D have never appeared in the same geologic time period.

Which of the following assumptions about the history of these fossils is best supported by this evidence?
A.
A new four-toed species evolved from a hoofed ancestor.
B.
A hoofed species died out and was replaced by an unrelated four-toed species.
C.
A new hoofed species evolved from a four-toed ancestor.
D.
A hoofed species interbred with a four-toed species to create a hybrid species.

Which statements about the fluid mosaic structure of a membrane are correct? select the three correct statements.which statements about the fluid mosaic structure of a membrane are correct? select the three correct statements.the framework of a membrane is a bilayer of phospholipids with their hydrophilic heads facing the aqueous environment inside and outside of the cell and their hydrophobic tails clustered in the center.because membranes are fluid, membrane proteins and phospholipids can drift about in the membrane.the diverse proteins found in and attached to membranes perform many important functions.the kinky tails of some proteins keep the membrane fluid by preventing the component molecules from packing solidly together.membranes include a mosaic, or mix, of carbohydrates embedded in a phospholipid bilayer.
