Use the drawings of a grass cell and a grasshopper cell to answer the question. plants and grasshoppers live in the same ecosystem. why do these cells contain many similar structures?
options:
a- organisms in an ecosystem breed with one another and share traits.
b- both organisms have the exact same dna sequences on their chromosomes.
c- plants and animals are descended from a common ancestor which had these cell parts.
d- species that live in an ecosystem have a single ancestor which founded the ecosystem.

(drag each tile to the correct location.) categorize each term as something that is typical of a scientific theory, a scientific hypothesis, or both. - a tentative statement used to guide scientific investigations. - makes predictions about future events. - can be tested by many independent researchers. - based on observations of natural phenomena. - a well-established, highly reliable explanation.

Bisphenol a (often called bpa) is a chemical found in products that people use every day, from water bottles to food containers to children's toys. unfortunately, bpa leaches out of its many products and makes its way into our bodies. what are the health effects of bpa exposure? ongoing research is finding that elevated exposure to bpa can affect a wide variety of developmental and physiological processes, but one of the first studies of bpa's health effects came about because of a simple mistake in the lab. at a laboratory at case western reserve university in 1998, geneticist patricia hunt was making a routine check of her female lab mice. as she extracted and examined developing eggs from the ovaries, she began to wonder what had gone wrong. she noticed that many of the eggs showed problems with their chromosomes, and some had irregular amounts of genetic material, which can lead to miscarriages and birth defects in mammals. she learned that a lab assistant had mistakenly washed the plastic mouse cages and water bottles with a harsh soap, releasing bpa from the plastic. knowing that bpa is an endocrine disruptor, a chemical that can enter organisms and mimic hormones, hunt set out to discover whether it had adversely affected her mice.
