Complete question:
A scientist used the amino acid sequence of cytochrome c in different species to consider evolutionary relationships.
The data below summarizes the numbers of differences in the amino acid sequences of cytochrome C found in the selected species
Species compared Number of differences
Human-chimpanzees 0
Human-Rhesus monkeys 1
Human-Horses or Donkeys 7
Human-Cow, Pigs or sheeps 7
Human-Rabbits 7
Mammals-Birds and reptiles 10-15
Mammals-Fishes 18-20
Mammals-Plants 45-48
Interpretation of the data supports which of the following statements?
(A) Rhesus monkeys are more closely related to rabbits than they are to horses.
(B) Horses and cows have identical amino acid sequences in their cytochrome c.
(C) Humans are more closely related to rabbits than they are to rhesus monkeys.
(D) Plants and animals have no similarities at all.
(E) Mammals are more closely related to reptiles than they are to fish.
Answer:
(E) Mammals are more closely related to reptiles than they are to fish.
Explanation:
So, what you need to do here is to compare the number of differences found in each comparison. Remember that this information is only regarding cytochrome C. For instance, we can see that between humans and chimpanzees, the number of differences is 0. Their amino acid sequences do not differ at all. On the contrary, the comparison of mammals and plants threw a value of 45-48 differences, meaning that they are very different from each other, almost 50%.
So, this is how you need to interpret the values of the differences in this table. Now, let us go to the options,
(A) Rhesus monkeys are more closely related to rabbits than they are to horses. Rhesus monkey was not compared to any group other than humans, so we could not say that they are more related to one animal or the other.
(B) Horses and cows have identical amino acid sequences in their cytochrome. When comparing humans with horses and then humans with cows, the number of differences was the same -7-. But these results do not indicate which are the differences. Remember that we are comparing amino acid sequences, so probably the number of differences of each group with humans is the same, but the amino acid sequences between horses and cows are not.
(C) Humans are more closely related to rabbits than they are to rhesus monkeys. Humans and rhesus monkeys express only one difference in the amino acid sequence, while humans and rabbits exhibit seven differences. This result means that humans are more closely to rhesus monkeys related than they are to rabbits.
(D) Plants and animals have no similarities at all.
As we mentioned before, plants and mammals have a difference of almost 50% in their amino-acidic sequences. It does not mean that the other 50% is also different.
(E) Mammals are more closely related to reptiles than they are to fish.
The amino acid sequence of mammals and reptiles show 10-15 differences
The amino acid sequence of mammals and fish show 18-20 differences
So yes, mammals seem to be more related to reptiles than to fishes because the number of differences with reptiles is fewer.

El proceso en el que se une las células sexuales se le conoce como ___________. En los animales esta pude ser interna o externa.
Answer:
La reproducción sexual consisten en la unión de dos gametos uno femenino y otro masculino, para formar un nuevo individuo con características provenientes de ambos progenitores. Los gametos son células especializadas que se forman por un proceso meiótico y tienen en su núcleo la mitad de la información genética de un organismo, por lo que reciben el nombre de células haploides de manera que cuando se une sus cromosomas se forman células diploides característico de la especie. La característica más importante de este tipo de reproducción es la variación genética que implica que los descendientes tengan características de sus dos progenitores, por lo que son diferentes a ellos. El proceso en el que se une las células sexuales se le conoce como fecundación. En los animales esta pude ser interna o externa.
Explanation:
Los gametos (óvulos y espermatozoides) son células germinales especializadas que se desarrollan a partir de un proceso llamado gametogénesis (espermatogénesis en machos y ovogénesis en hembras). El proceso de gametogénesis implica un tipo de división celular llamado 'meiosis' donde la cantidad de cromosomas se reduce a la mitad. En humanos, el número cromosómico diploide (2n) de 46 cromosomas se reduce a un número haploide (n) de 23 cromosomas. La fecundación es el proceso por el cual los gametos se fusionan durante la reproducción sexual para producir un cigoto diploide. En la reproducción sexual, el aumento de la variación genética en la progenie es un resultado de tres procesos diferentes: la unión aleatoria entre gametos durante la fecundación, la distribución independiente de los cromosomas durante la gametogénesis y el entrecruzamiento (recombinación o crossing over) entre cromátidas de cromosomas homólogos durante la meiosis. Finalmente, en animales, la fecundación puede ser interna, la cual se produce mediante la unión de los gametos dentro del cuerpo de la hembra (por ejemplo, gallina, leona, cebra, etc.), o fecundación externa, donde la fusión de gametos se produce en el ambiente externo (por ejemplo en peces, sapos, ranas, etc.).

The service box is an area on the court that 1 point the person serving must stand in. the ball must land in to be a playable serve. the person returning the serve must be standing in before a server can serve
Answer:
Both players on the serving doubles team have the opportunity to serve and score points until they commit a fault *(except for the first service sequence of each new game).
The first serve of each side-out is made from the right-hand court.
If a point is scored, the server switches sides and the server initiates the next serve from the left-hand court.
As subsequent points are scored, the server continues switching back and forth until a fault is committed and the first server loses the serve.
When the first server loses the serve the partner then serves from their correct side of the court (except for the first service sequence of the game*).
The second server continues serving until his team commits a fault and loses the serve to the opposing team.
Once the service goes to the opposition (at side out), the first serve is from the right-hand court and both players on that team have the opportunity to serve and score points until their team commits two faults.
In singles the server serves from the right-hand court when his or her score is even and from the left when the score is odd.
Explanation:
In North America, the eastern spotted skunk mates
in late winter, and the western spotted skunk mates
in late summer. Even though their geographic
ranges overlap, the species do not mate with each
other. What most likely prevents these two species
from interbreeding?
A. habitat isolation
B. gametic isolation
C. geographic isolation
D. reproductive isolation
Reproductive isolation is a mechanism through which species do not get to interbreed. Option D. reproductive isolation
What is reproductive isolation?This is a mechanism through which different species or populations do get to mate and produce fertile offspring. This mechanism allows the accumulation of genetic differences and favors speciation.
There are different barriers that inhibit or interrupt the genetic flow between different species.
Reproductive barriers prevent mating between two or more species. There are two types of barriers,
prezygotic ⇒ that avoids fertilization between individuals of different species, postzygotic ⇒ that impedes the zygote to develope and reach the adult stage.Pre-copulatory o pre-ziygotic:
• Ecological or by habitat isolation;
• Seasonal or temporal;
• Séxual o ethologic;
• Mechanic;
• Gametes incompatibility.
Postzygotic mechanisms or barriers include
• Hybrid inviability,
• Hybrid sterility,
• Cytoplasmic interactions.
In the exposed example occurs a seasonal difference between the mating period of the eastern spotted skunk and the western spotted skunk.
Probably, if both of them would mate during the same season and in the same area, they could reproduce.
However, since their mating season differs, individuals from each species do not get to cross and hence, produce fertile offspring.
Option D. reproductive isolation is what most likely prevents these two species from interbreeding

Answer:
a) Beaver-dam buildings → (iii) Pond floods
b) Forest fire → (i) New plants can grow because of an increase in sunlight on the forest floor
c) Lack of rainfall → (ii) Zebras migrate farther to find water holes
d) Invasive water plants arrive → (iv) Sunlight is blocked for native seagrasses
e) Grasshopper outbreaks → (v) Crops are wiped out along the prairie
f) Coyote disease decreases the population → (vi) Mice population explodes
Explanation:
a) Beaver-dam buildings → (iii) Pond floods
This is an example of how some species might produce damages in ecosystems. Beavers are known for their dams, where they hide from predators, find shelter, reproduce, and feed. With time, and as the beaver population grows, these dams get bigger each time. These animals keep cutting down trees and covering some wider areas that were inhabited previously by other species. The landscape changes, these areas get flooded permanently, most vegetation dye, the soil properties get altered, and just a few species can keep living there. The ecosystem changes.
b) Forest fire → (i) New plants can grow because of an increase in sunlight on the forest floor
This is an example of biological succession. Stable forests characterize as having big old trees that compete for light developing big canopies at heights. Poor light reaches the ground and allows some smaller species to grow. When a fire occurs, some of these trees might fall or disappear. These fire events open windows in the forest through which sunlight directly reaches the ground. Many new species can germinate and grow. There occurs a renovation of vegetable species in the forest and the consequent renovation of other living forms.
c) Lack of rainfall → (ii) Zebras migrate farther to find water holes
It is not unusual that some species need to migrate looking for food or water. In certain areas, seasonal differences are very sharp, and while some periods characterize as producing plenty of food and water, some others characterize as lacking them, dry seasons especially. Animals develop different strategies to face these moments. Zebras need to migrate to find a new source of water to ensure proper hydration.
d) Invasive water plants arrive → (iv) Sunlight is blocked for native seagrasses
A very known global environmental problem is the damage caused by invasive species. In a few words, exotic species arrive in a new area out of their native distribution range, establish, grow, adapt, and reproduce. These exotic species turn into invasive species when they overgrow, sharply increasing their reproductive rate. At this point, interaction with native species becomes harder, competing for resources such as space, light, food, shelter, water, among many others. Invasive species become such a good competitor that end by displacing native species. In the exposed example, invasive water plants arrive, and their population overgrows. They compete for light with native seagrasses and end by blocking it for them.
e) Grasshopper outbreaks → (v) Crops are wiped out along the prairie
This is an example of the prey-predator relationship. In this case, grasshoppers are the predators, and crops are acting as the prey. Whenever one of the population increases in size, the other one follows this increase, causing the decrease of the first one. When the first population decreases, the second one also decreases. In this example, grasshopper outbreaks, meaning an increase in predation rate over crops. Many more individuals are feeding on the crops, causing more damages to the plants´ population. Crops do not have enough time to recover, so they are wiped out.
f) Coyote disease decreases the population → (vi) Mice population explodes
This is also an example of the prey-predator relationship. In this case, coyotes are the predators, and mice are acting as the prey. As coyotes are affected by the disease, which causes a decrease in their population size, mice seem to be favored, as they are not predated. They have enough time to recover as a population and increase in size. Coyotes´population decreases in size, so there are many fewer individuals feeding on mice, and hence, the mice population increases very fast. It explodes.
