Chapter 31, Problem 18TYU
Summary Introduction
To propose: A hypothesis that the insects undergo complete metamorphosis outnumbers those that do not by more than 10 to 1.
Hypothesis: Insects undergo complete metamorphosis outnumbers those that do not by more than 10 to 1
Introduction: Arthropods are considered as the most biologically successful animal group. The arthropods are more diverse group of animals and covered a greater range of habitats than other animal group members. According to various molecular data, eye structure, and genome analysis, the pancrustaceans are divided into two groups, namely crustaceans and hexapods (insects).

- A. How did Charles Darwin explain his observations? 1. Species of tortoise and finch varies from island-to-island? 2. Fossil of different animals have similarities. 3. There are fossil of extinct animals.arrow_forwardUse the scenario to answer the question. Scientists have found one new fossil that is similar to Archaeopteryx. It is only the second fossil of its kind. It shows an animal that had a long-feathered tail and small teeth, like non-avian dinosaurs. But the animal also had flight feathers and wings, like modern birds. The fossil also shows a fused clavicle bone, which confirms the relationship between birds and dinosaurs because they are the only two groups with this characteristic, What is true about this scenario? It shows evidence of evolution. It shows evidence of causation. It shows evidence of climate change. It shows evidence of widespread expression.arrow_forwardSuggest and support a hypothesis for the view that segmentation evolved in three different animal clades.arrow_forward
- Which of the following shared characteristics of living birds and theropod dinosaurs provided support to the hypothesis that birds evolved from dinosaurs? Check all that apply. Group of answer choices 1-birds and many theropods have a wishbone (or furcula) 2-all birds and theropods could fly 3-like theropod dinosaurs, birds have long, bony tails under their feathers 4-birds and theropods have hollow bones that are strong, but light 5-birds and many theropods have feathersarrow_forwardTRUE OR FALSE 1. The fossil record provides a sweeping overview of the history of life over geologic record 2. A change in the regulation of a developmental gene may have fewer harmful side effects than a change to the sequence of the gene. 3. Synapsids possess an opening known as the occipital fenestra behind the eye socket 4. In some very late cynodont the articular and quadrate bones migrated into the ear region, where they functioned in transmitting sound 5. Fossils contain isotopes of molecules that accumulated in the organisms when they were alive.arrow_forwardProvide two examples from invertebrates of such ‘reverse evolution’ from a derived state (specialized state) back to a more ancestral character statearrow_forward
