Based on the classification of organisms, a lion would share characteristics most similar to an animal in the same ______.

Final answer:

A lion would share the most similar characteristics with an animal in the same genus, such as other large cats within the genus Panthera like tigers, leopards, and jaguars.

Explanation:

Based on the classification of organisms, a lion would share characteristics most similar to an animal in the same genus. The classification system scientists use, known as the taxonomic classification system established by Carl Linnaeus, organizes living things into hierarchical categories. As you move down these categories from the kingdom to the species level, the organisms become more similar to each other due to shared traits and a closer evolutionary relationship.

Lions, for instance, belong to the genus Panthera, which they share with other large cats like tigers, leopards, and jaguars, which means they are closely related. At the family level, lions are part of the Felidae family, which encompasses all cat-like carnivores, including domestic cats. However, domestic cats belong to a different genus, Felis, indicating that while they share many characteristics and a common evolutionary path, they are less closely related than lions are to other members of the Panthera genus.

Prior to the invention of refrigeration, meat was often preserved by soaking it in brine (a solution of water with a high concentration of salt) to kill any microorganisms that might have tried to use the meat as their own food source.

A hurricane tore holes in the roof of your house, allowing a good deal of moisture inside. Very quickly, mold began to grow because of it. What would be the most effective and ecologically friendly way of killing the mold and why?

a. Since mold is one of the immobile protists, releasing heterotrophic protists to act as predators would kill it.
b. Since mold is an autotrophic protist, depriving it of light would keep it from photosynthesizing, and it would die.
c. Since protists need moist environments in order to grow well, drying out the area would kill the mold.
d. Since protists need to move their flagella to gather food, spraying red tide toxins on the mold would paralyze and kill it.

Question 5(Multiple Choice Worth 2 points)

(6.02 MC)Two new products are competing for grant money, with the goal of cleaning up the marine environment. Each product removes plastic from the ocean.
Product 1 can be used in the open ocean and requires monitoring once every three months to retrieve collected plastic.
Product 2 is designed to be used in harbors and marinas and requires monitoring once per week to retrieve collected plastic.
If all other costs and benefits are equal, which of these products would you recommend for the grant?
Product 1 because it requires less monitoring, reducing the overall cost
Product 1 because it is presumed to be more effective at removing plastic
Product 2 because it would provide more job opportunities for local people
Product 2 because it would probably last longer in marinas than in the open ocean
