Dichotomous Keys and branching diagrams organize different types of information about classification. how are these tools used differently?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

In a dichotomous key you named then by their traits while in a branching diagram it already has the name and it's traits.

Explanation:

In dichotomous keys (also called single-entry or single-entry keys), a fixed sequence of alternatives must be followed, where multiple steps (including one or more characters) present two contrasting options (character states). As a result, only a single series of choices results in correct identification. Thus for each taxon there is a specific sequence of steps. An important factor of the dichotomous keys is that through them it is possible to name living beings through their characteristics.

A branch diagram can be used to represent a probability space. It can also be used to represent the various possibilities of a permutation or combination. This type of diagram provides a convenient way to organize information from a set of conditional events. In biology, the branch diagram shows the name and characteristics of a being and its relationship to different beings and characteristics.

Answer 2

Answer: To show the different levels of classification and divide among species, and different organisms on planet Earth. It also creates a universal "language" for scientists around the world when referring to organisms (cougar & puma are the same animals; different name)
Example: The American Alligator and the Chinese Alligator (look it up!) are in the same family and genus, but are not the same species.

What is difference between Respiration and Breathing??...Give 2 points each.

Answers

Breathing is simply taking in of oxygen and expelling out carbon dioxide. It involves nose, larynx, bronchi, broncioles, lungs and alveoli.

Respiration is a deeper process. It involves oxidation of food in the mitochondria and releasing ATP for energy requirements. It involves many organs or perhaps the whole body

The difference between breathing and respiration is that when you breathe you take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide while during respiration the body breaks down the oxygen so that your cells can use it for energy.
