What does primitive in biology mean?
I wouldn't say that an organism is 'primitive', it's much better to state that the organism is philogenetically old (or older in comparison to other organism). Such statement means that a species has been on earth for a longer period of time than others.
When using the modern classification system the largest level of organism is called?
Kingdom
Would describe Lamarck's idea about evolution?
Lamarck proposed the theory of inheritance of acquired characteristics, where an organism can pass on traits acquired during its lifetime to its offspring. He believed that organisms could change in response to their environment, and these changes would be inherited by future generations. However, this idea has been largely discredited by modern evolutionary theory, which is based on natural selection and genetic mutations.
Why is it misguided to try to find your earliest eukaryote ancestor among modern day protists?
It is misguided to try to find our eukaryotic ancestor among modern-day protists because the Protists living today have been through a process of evolution just as extensive as the one that produced every other living organism.
What is the similar features that originated in a shared ancestor?
Homologous structures are features that originated in a shared ancestor, such as the bones in the limbs of vertebrates. These features may have different functions in modern organisms but have similar underlying structures due to their common ancestry.
What are features a modern organism doesn't need but has inherited from it's ancestors called?
Vestigial structures. Sometimes put to other uses that they were not adapted for.
What idea of Darwin's based on fossils and the modern organism he found basically says that genetic changes are inherited by later generations?
The ideas of descent with modification are based on fossils and the modern organisms he found basically says that genetic changes are inherited by later generations.
What idea of Darwin's based on fossils and the modern organism he found basically says that generic changes are inherited by later generations?
The ideas of descent with modification are based on fossils and the modern organisms he found basically says that genetic changes are inherited by later generations.
What is the antonym of ancestral?
The antonym of "ancestral" is "modern" or "contemporary." Ancestral refers to something that is passed down through generations, while modern or contemporary refers to something that is current or of the present time.
What idea of Darwin's bases on fossils modern organism he found basically says that genetic changes are inherited by later generations?
what term defined as the study of the distributon of organisms on earth
According to Gregor Mendel what particles caused inherited characteristics?
Gregor Mendel proposed that inherited characteristics are determined by discrete units called "factors" (now known as genes) that are passed down from parents to offspring. These genes come in pairs, with one copy inherited from each parent, and they influence the traits and characteristics that an organism develops. Mendel's work laid the foundation for the modern understanding of how traits are inherited.
What idea of Darwin's based on fossils and he modern organisms he found basically says the genetic changes re inherited by later generations?
Darwin's idea of "descent with modification" suggests that species evolve over time through the process of natural selection, where favorable traits are inherited by subsequent generations. Fossil evidence and the study of modern organisms indicate that genetic changes accumulate over time, leading to the diversity of life we see today. This concept underpins the theory of evolution, highlighting the connection between ancestral species and their modern descendants.
What is ambulocetus an ancestor to?
Animals of the genus Ambulocetus are intermediaries between basal mammals and modern whales, and possibly ancestral to modern whales.
What idea of Darwins based on fossils and the modern organisms he found basically says that genetic changes are inherited are inherited by later generations?
The ideas of descent with modification are based on fossils and the modern organisms he found basically says that genetic changes are inherited by later generations.
The modern Republican Party inherited the political tradition of the?
anti federalist and whigs
What is the ancestral hominid that is most closely related to modern humans?
It has not be found and is called "missing link".
What are the features of privatization in modern world business?
Features of privatization
