It groups organisms that share common characteristics.

Explanation

In a zero-order reaction, the rate of reaction is independent of the concentration of the reactants and is equal to the rate constant k.

The rate equation for a zero-order reaction is  Rate=k, where the rate of reaction is constant and does not change with varying concentrations of reactants. 

Explanation

PHRV (Polyhydroxyalkanoates) is a type of biodegradable polymer.

It is produced by microorganisms and can be broken down by natural processes, making it environmentally friendly compared to other polymers.

Explanation

In an isothermal process, the temperature of the system remains constant.

According to the first law of thermodynamics, for an ideal gas, if the temperature is constant, the internal energy does not change.

Therefore, the change in internal energy is zero (ΔU = 0).

Explanation

It is estimated that about 99.9% of all species that have ever existed on Earth are now extinct.

This figure underscores the vast extent of extinction events throughout:

• Earth's history
• reflects the dynamic 
• often unstable nature of life on the planet.

The remaining 0.1% of species are the ones that are still extant today.

Explanation

The fluid mosaic model describes the structure of the plasma membrane of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

Explanation

Chondrichthyes (cartilaginous fish, such as sharks and rays) and Osteichthyes (bony fish) differ in several characteristics.

One key difference is the presence of spiracles.

Spiracles are small openings behind the eyes of some cartilaginous fish that allow water to pass over the gills when the mouth is closed.

Bony fish generally do not have spiracles.
