Do any other birds have similar wing structures to Kestrels?

Yes, other birds of prey like falcons and hawks have similar wing structures to kestrels. They have long, pointed wings for efficient flight and hunting. Other bird species such as swifts and swallows also have similar pointed wings for fast and agile flight.


What is the pattern of parallels and meridians used to give exact locations on the globe?

The pattern of parallels and meridians, also known as latitude and longitude, is used to give exact locations on the globe. Parallels refer to lines of latitude that run parallel to the equator, while meridians refer to lines of longitude that run from the North Pole to the South Pole. By combining these coordinates, we can pinpoint any location on Earth.


How do parallels differ from latitude?

A parallel is any circle that runs east and west around earth and that is parallel to the equator, latitude is the angular distance north and south from the equator. A parallel is a latitude, however they have different meanings. ! -ANA


Lines of longitude are not called parallels because?

Because all longitudes converge (merge, meet, come together) at the north and south poles. Since parallel things can't do that, we know that lines of longitude must not be parallel, and since they are not parallel, it would be very misleading to call them parallels. The whole subject is confusing enough as it is.


Are lines of latitude always parallel?

Yes. Any two lines of latitude are the same distance apart everywhere, and they never meet or cross. This is a big part of the reason that they're often called "parallels" of latitude.

How are homologous structures different from analogous structures?

Yes, homologous structures have common bone and muscle structures suggesting that they came from an common ancestor while analogous structures do not share any similarity in features, suggesting that they derived from two separate origins.


Are all right angled triangles between same parallels similar?

I doubt it. If I put the base of a right angle triangle on one of the parallels and the opposite apex on the other parallel line, there is a side at right angles to both lines, but the hypotenuse might be sloping down at any angle you like. If you are given the distance between the parallels, then you must be given the length of the base or the smaller base angle to fix a particular right-angled triangle.

Is the equator parallel to the meridian?

Nothing is parallel to any meridian. The equator is a parallel of latitude, and is parallel to all the other parallels. This is a big part of the reason that, collectively, they are called 'parallels'.


Are there any organisms alive today that is similar to an allosaurus?

Not really. The closest living relatives to allosaurus are birds.


Difference between homologous structures and analogous?

Homologous structures are any structures that have similarity and come from the same lineage. This can be seen in the forelimbs of mammals. Analogous structures are very similar but come from different ancestors. This can be seen in the North American flying squirrel vs the Australian sugar glider. They both have similar features but come from 2 different locations. In fact, the Australian sugar glider is more related to the kangaroo than the flying squirrel
