09 Multiple Choice
Look at the organisms below. What do these organisms have in common?
1.skeletal structure
2.constant body temperature
3.presence of spinal cord
4.pattern of symmetry​

Answer:

D. Pattern of symmetry

Explanation:

The bird, insect and the giraffe all have the same pattern of symmetry or body plan.

They have bilateral symmetry. This is because of a vertical plane is run through each of them, from top to bottom, the body parts would be divided into two. That is each side would have equal arrangement of the different parts that makes up the organism. This is why it is referred to as bilateral symmetry.

In dragons, a gene on chromosome 1 codes for wing color and a gene on chromosome 2 codes for body color. Draw out the stages of meiosis for these two chromosomes from a dragon that is heterozygous for both traits. Make sure that, within your drawing, you define your alleles. Also, in your drawing include all the possible allele combinations of the gametes produced.

Can u help me only choose the correct answer pls

Which correctly describes cytokinesis and the phase it occurs in the cell cycle?

A. It is the process in which DNA is replicated to make two copies, and it occurs in the interphase of the
cell cycle.

B. It is the process in which DNA is replicated to make two copies, and it occurs in the mitotic phase of
the cell cycle.
