A. Make a list of as many traits as you can think of that could be used to classify a new species. b. Which of the traits in the list above would be most useful for classification at high levels (e. g. classifying things into different kingdoms or phyla) , which would be more helpful at lower levels (e. g. family or genus)

a. My list is the following:

1. presence of photosynthetic pigments

2. presence of cell wall

3. body symmetry pattern

4. presence of cell nucleus

5. presence of specialized organelles

6. presence of hair

7. presence of mammal glands  

8. niche (e.g., terrestrial or marine habitats)

9. diet (food habits)

10. position of a particular muscle

Explanation:

b. In the list above, traits such as the presence of a cell nucleus or specialized organelles can be used to classify organisms at the kingdom level (since these phenotypic features are observed in eukaryotic organisms but not in prokaryotes). In a similar mode, animals may exhibit two different body symmetry patterns: radial (around the central axis) and bilateral (two sides: left and right), thereby symmetry body can be used to classify organisms within the animal kingdom. Other features used to classify species at high levels include the presence of photosynthetic pigments in green plants (chlorophyll) and bacteria (xanthophyll), presence of cell walls in plants (composed of cellulose,)  and fungi (composed of chitin), presence of hair and mammal glands (mammals), etc. On the other hand, ecological differences (e.g., food habits, niche) and minor anatomical differences (e.g., the position of a particular muscle) are helpful to classify species at the family/genus level.

the correct answer is option d.

an appositive is a noun, noun phrase or noun clause which follows another noun or noun phrase in order to describe it or name it another way. they are usually used between commas, brackets or dashes.

the example sentence with the correct use of commas is the following:

her uncle, the man over there in the red shirt, owns the hardware store in town.
