Elephant fossils were observed in a region. scientists found that these types of elephants don’t currently inhabit that particular region or any other region in the world. the fossils have distinct features that show similarities to features of present-day elephants. what does this information suggest?
1.)the fossils are an extinct species of elephants, and they’re related to present-day elephants.
2.)the fossils are a living species of elephants, and they’re related to ancient elephants.
3.)the fossils are an extinct species of elephants, and they’re not related to present-day elephants.
4.)the fossils are a living species of elephants, and they’re not related to ancient elephants.

The correct answer is- 1.) The fossils are an extinct species of elephants, and they’re related to present-day elephants.

As per the information given in the question, Elephant fossils were observed in a region and those elephants do not exist anywhere ( indicating that they have become extinct). As the fossils show similarities to the features of present-day elephants, therefore, this information suggests that they are related ( primarily because of common ancestry) to the present day elephants.

Thus, option 1) is the right answer.

photosynthesis makes the glucose that is used in cellular respiration to make atp. the glucose is then turned back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis. while water is broken down to form oxygen during photosynthesis, in cellular respiration oxygen is combined with hydrogen to form water.
