Which sentence accurately describes the other levels of organization in this new kingdom? O The phyla would be new, but the classes, orders, and families would not be new.

Homologous structures show individual variations on a common anatomical theme. These are seen in organisms that are closely related. 1. Give an example of a homologous structure from this activity: Analogous structures have very different anatomies but similar functions. These are seen in organismsthat are not necessarily closely related but live in similar environments and have similar adaptations. 2. Give an example of an analogous structure from this activity: Vestigial structures are anatomical remnants that were important in the organism's ancestors but are nolonger used in the same way. 3.

- 17) Multicellularity is an important evolutionary innovation in the history of life on Earth. For the following statements, designate which is true (T) and which is false (F). Correct the false. Multicellularity has evolved independently a few times in the history of life. Multicellular members of domain Eukarya arose through the process of endosymbiosis. Multicellular organisms have cells specialized for different functions, with each cell type having a unique genetic sequence. Cell differentiation occurs in unicellular organisms but not in multicellular organisms. Multicellular organisms are absent from the domain Archaea.arrow_forwardThe most inclusive level of classification isa. species.b. kingdom.c. domain.d. phylum.arrow_forwardA unicellular organism has a cell wall, a nucleus, chloroplasts, and several flagella.
