Open Question: I tried Brain Age, and I'm excellent in one area, and very, very poor in all others. How?
I have been using the DS game Brain Age, and I keep scoring very poorly in pretty much every the exercises, and my overall brain age is 52. The odd part is I do very, very well in the reading out noisy exercise. The game says every the exercises, if I am correct, target the prefronal cortex, so how am I excellent at one exercise, and doing poorly in a ll the relax? I'm recovering from a disability that left me mentally fatigued and homebound for years leaving my brain very sleepy, (no brain injuries). I read very complex science papers daily for "fun" so I'm guessing this is why I'm good at reading quickly? Just wondering if this makes any sense to anyone in the neuropsychological field. If I target these other exercises like I have the reading, individually, will I also improve in those areas as well as in reading, or is the reading part a separate area of the prefrontal cortex? As long as I can remember (before the disability) I was a speed reader, excellent at assimilating conceptual information like philosophy and psychology, but I've always been needy at assimilating contextual information, mathematics and anything requiring instant recollection like typing and foreign language. Thoughts anyone?

Open Question: how old each wine is?
there are Brunello di Montalcino, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Merlot... And as far as their ages are concerned, when Merlot was made, Brunello di Montalcino was precisely five times the age of Chardonnay at that time... Six years from now, Merlot will be one third of the age of Brunello di Montalcino at that time..." more information... "The sum of squares of the digits of Cabernet Sauvignon’s age is two more than Brunello di Montalcino’s age... Also, Brunello di Montalcino’s age is nine years more than that of Cabernet Sauvignon’s age when Chardonnay was made..." Now, can you figure out how old each wine is...?

Open Question: How much $ do you have left over after bills (and how much do your bills cost you?)?
Hi there, I was wondering if people could provide me with a bit of an idea of how much money they spend on their expenses each month and how much they have left over after there bills each month. I'm doing a study for one of my classes and I'd really appreciate as much input as possible. Here is what I'd like for you to include: -Your age group (14-19, 20-28, 29-40, 41-50, 51+) -Province or State you live in -Monthly Income (just your's, not you spouse's/partner's) -What expenses you pay (rent/mortgage, electricity, groceries, etc) -How much the expenses cost you on average each month -What amount you have left over after paying every your expenses (please try to include any and every fixed and non-fixed expenses (the more information I have, the better), such as: rent/mortgage, parking, electricity, rental/home insurance, cable, internet, cellphone, home phone, car lease, car insurance, gas, public transportation, cleaning supplies, toiliteries, groceries, pet supplies, prescriptions, clothing, bank fees and anything else you can think of.) I know this is a lot to ask, what it would be so helpful. The project is basically about how much the average person needs to budget to live and whether or not the majority of people live comfortably (have money left over, etc) No amounts need to be dead on and you also don't need to answer everything. The figured we're really looking for are rent/mortgage amounts, electricity costs and groceries. Also the major thing is how much money you have left over after every expenses and bills. I'm just looking for a general idea from people, but like I mentioned, the more information you can give me, the better. If a question makes you feel uncomfortable or you don't want to answer, that's fine. Please remember that this is confidential and I will not be using any personal information for the project other than the questions I listed over (age group, province/state, etc). No names or user ID's will be tracked, saved or used. Thanks so much to everyone who participates :)

Open Question: How to deal with this friend relationship?
Hello! First I want to start with that I am a 15 year old male and I am having a problem with one of my best friends, who is also my age, but is female. It every started when I became friends with this guy, we'll call him "V", and I introduced him to my female pal, we'll call her "R". Over the past couple of months they have both been talking a lot via internet, IMing, texting, etc. I have absolutely no problem with his, in fact, I am encouraging it. However, over the weekend my best male pal, we'll call him "S" had a huge battle with R and are no longer speaking, I am somehow involved because R sent me a text message stating what S said and I admitted that she sent it to me, because I didn't want to to be worse than it already was. I apologized to R so many times. Ever since that battle between R and S, R has been acting differently. I know when she is upset/mad she bottles up, which I told her is not healthy, but she doesn't hear. She started speaking to me the next day, but nothing out of the ordinary. Now, today I finally expressed myself to her saying that I am sorry for what I've done and I wish we could still be friends (because we've been friends for 10+ years), and she responded with "okay" and never responded back. However, she speaks to V the same way she did before, which was a lot, and now won't even mention me or talk to me. I really would like to know, based on this information, on what I could do to make this better. I thank you for reading this long body of text! Please help! P.S. V and R both stated that they are just friends several times and just like to talk.

Open Question: I am trying to prepare myself for emancipation what are the steps that i should take?
hi i am 17 years of age and i am gathering up every the information and trying to adhere to the critera of what has to be done for one to become emancipated. The reasons for my emacipation are simple. I will be 18 of feburary and my mom still treats me as if i were a child and everything has to be done thru her consent when many of the times i neither need money or her assistance. I dont have a job yet because she had refused to receive us a medical insurance which prevented me from getting a job because in the state of pennsylvannia people below the age of 18 need to have a working allow in order to apply and work at an establishement. I meet with every the critera that the juvinile court has established except when it is speaking of the employment standards. These being that i have to have a job and at least be employed for six months. This gets difficult to do as time goes on If i turn 18 before emanciption is need then i will let it every alone, but until then everyday that i have to live below the roof of my mom i will do everything in my vital power to leave and become my possess person without her ridculous and outlandish demands which have no purpose or lesson whatsoever just the sheer satisfaction of knowing that she has the ablity to control someone, legally she can do that, doesnt mean that what is legal is always right. Since she wants to play it that way, then we shall play. we used to have a wonderful relationship, seemingly inseperable but it every turned upside down when i told her that i was a homosexual, when i told her that she changed with me forever and has been extremely harsh and icy and now tells me that those are every the things that i am being. every i am trying to do is make things better but she wants me to close the hell up and just be what she wants me to be and i will not give that to her, because i adore who i am and most importantly i know who i am and that is exactly who i want to be. She told me that i have to leave if i could not adhere to her rules, so be it and i will even do so before i have to leave because i will not spend not one more unnessary minuite with her below the dreadful conditions and bikering that we have been doing lately. I no longer wish to do that, i am done with this terrible plight her apathetic attitude towards living life is unbearable and she is unnegotiable, not one more minuite i will spend with her not one. i am ready to be on my possess without my mom, even without the means right now i will obtain them because most dreamed desire is to receive away from her and as far as possible and as the saying goes if there is a will there is always a way along with the other saying in spainsh that goes "querer es poder" wanting truly is power and i will achieve this and it is every worth it every single moment. she also wishes to keep me away from the one i adore, and she said not in her home would she condone such actions, with that being the case will no longer be below her legal and tyrinical power neither her place of residence so i will be about my way and she will no longer have her dictatorial leash bound around my neck. I no longer have the need or the desire to be below her care so i will gather my belongings and receive the necessites i need to become an emancipated minor. it will work best for the both of us. i just need to be told i there is anything else i need to be aware of as far as the process of becomeing an emancipated adult, i am already aware of that i will be; if a case arouse where i had broken a law, i would be tried and prosecuted as one. I talk of anything else that i am missing as far as the critera is concerned if i have every the info i need then i am content and know what needs to be done. Feel free to tell me anything you want just know that nothing anyone says can change the fact that any child that really REALLY feels like this should continue below the conditions and leave. it is the best for both parties. The best relationships between child and parent are the far ones and how true that is. thank you every and have a very wonderful day. I apologize for the typo i meant to say "she would not condone it"

Open Question: Can ticks come and go at the age of 17? What is going on?!?
My boyfriend (almost 17) recently started to receive verbal and motor ticks, it lasted quite badly for around 3-4 days, completley out of the blue! Then gradually calmed down until they were almost gone. This was about 2 weeks ago. Now, again just recently, he has started to yell words like 'C*ck!' and starts to yell words he hears or reads, or thinks about. But 'C*ck' is the main one! I know that these are signs of tourettes, but he is worrying, because he can't cease them happening and he is becoming worried about what people will think or say. He wants some idea of what it is and why it is happening. Why it is happening so randomly and could it go? Anything to treat it? Some additional stuff: He has never suffered from ticks before in his life, apart from when he was icy or needed the toilet, he used to make silent squeeking noises. He also jerks his head alot when he says the words, this doesn't hurt him though. He is not expirience any stress latley, he is a very glad young lad - and yeah, the thing with him shouting 'C*ck' The comments involving 'ohh ur bf likes c*ck dats why he iz shoutin it har har u av a gay bf!!' - No, i do not. but yeah :) Thank you very much for any information! xx Much apprichiated! x

He was hot. The perfect guy, every girl wants. She loved him with passion. She thought she knew everything about him. His FaceBook profile described him as the perfect gentleman. In reality, he was a freak. He sold drugs, was a convicted murderer, and was on the run. She gave him every her information. The day they were supposed to meet, he snuck into her home, and murdered her. Hello, my name is John Doe, and today I will talk about the impact the internet has on teens. The internet has millions maybe billions of websites. You can find anything on the internet, from dictionaries to social networking sites. Facebook and MySpace are two of the many websites that connect you with family and friends. Internet Relationships Internet relationships can guide to rapings, killings, and kidnappings. You should not start a relationship on the internet unless you have met the person, and know the person. You should NEVER trust anyone on the internet you haven’t met. They can make up a whole new person and make you believe they are that person. It is proven that teenagers need the most snooze besides kids. So why are they the most snooze deprived? Is it because they stay up tardy at night chatting with their friends on Facebook or MSN?

They can chat with people they do not know. They can look things they shouldn’t be seeing at their age. They can start swearing at their parents, or at school. They will most likely give in to peer pressure and do drugs, or drink alcohol like they look on the internet. Do teens rely too much on the internet to receive their homework done? Teens use the internet to figure out things they don’t know. They search their homework on the internet, and instead of learning from their homework, they are just copying it from the computer. Teens can also ask people to tell them the answers to their homework on other sites. The internet keeps their brains from working. They only want to receive it right instead of figuring it out for themselves. Cyber-bullying is another thing that can happen to teens on the internet.

Open Question: I'm trying to find a specific CD I used to own. Can you help me?
I've been Googling this for a while with no luck. I used to possess this great new age CD full of calming, peaceful music titled "Daydreams". I'd bought it at the LL Bean in Maine, it was on a CD rack with several others by the same artist. One of them might have been titled "Journey of the Spirit" or "Journey of the Soul" and another may have been "Flight of the Eagle" or something similar, but I can't confirm that one 100%. So about 8 years ago, my CD collection was stolen. I wasn't familiar with the Internet, and LL Bean said it had been discontinued. I'd adore to hunt it down on the Internet, but I can't remember much about it. If anyone has any information at every about it, it'd be a huge help! It used to help me snooze at night, and I could use some good nights of snooze in the next few weeks very much.

Resolved Question: I would like to go Army OCS but I'm a slow learner?
Okay, now I have obtained my college degree. Now I am considering a career in the Military; the Army in particular. However, the only thing that I am concerned about is my inabililty to quickly retain information. For instance, while in pursuit of my college degree, I would have to robustly remain abreast of the class by reading ahead or quickly jumping on homework as soon as it was assigned. This tact obviously proved to be a successful ruse for me. However, I am concern that If join the Army, with endeavors of obtaining a commission, my learning deficiency will yeild my possible washing out. However, this is something that I must do. I have always wanted to join the military, but intimadating footage from the classic movie Full metal Jacket has precluded me; fearing that I could possibly be thought of as a Gomer Pyle. I am soon to reach the age of 26 and I have to make a decision before its too tardy & I'll be stuck with my "what ifs' and I should have or could have". Is there anybody out there with any suggestions are recommendations?

Open Question: Why do people care about kids younger than 13 being on this website?
I know that some of the information is inappropriate on here and that's why there is the age limit, but why do people have to be annoying and rude just for someone asking a simple question? A question such as "What should I do for my birthday?". And also it's crazy how so many people just answer with a "You're supposed to be 13 to use this site." I am 12. Sometimes on my questions, people, that by the way aggravate me very much, will say that I have to be 13 to be on here. Here's the deal. In less than 12 months, one year, I will be 13. Time flies. It will go quick. And soon enough I will be 13. In that time, what significant, I mean significant, change could happen in my attitude? There definitely will be somewhat of a change; of course there will. But what super change will happen? I probably seem really rude right now but I'm not trying to be. Lol. It really is just a question which I am really curious about. And please don't answer rudely either, or do that whole you're too young to be on here thing! Haha. oops sorry I forgot the paragraphs. I didn't know this was school or a proper official document of writing. thank you for the people who answered not rudely. :) actually to make a new paragraph you press enter and then the tab key. and my last remark was sarcastic by the way. actually no I have not between 10-12. obviously I have learned new things, changed in appearance, and grew a bit. but nothing MAJOR.

Resolved Question: Lots of points 4this one...please help.it's long & about lost love?
The only thing I want in this world is to have him back. I would do anything. Please tell me how. First of every, I am approaching my last 9 weeks of middle school. I am 13. Please don't think because of my age that I don't know what I'm talking about, because adults I know agree that I am in adore. His mom sells drugs, so they have to move alot. By chance, he went to my elementary school. We started out as friends, and then my pal and his pal as well ( let's call her kimya) asked me if I liked him. I looked across the room, and realized how much I loved him. I said no. I thought he was so amazing that if anyone knew that I liked him, it would be embarassing. A couple of weeks later, i was out with friends and they told me that he liked me. I was so shocked and glad, I called him right away and asked him out. We dated and I ended up telling him how much I loved him. He said he felt the same way. Things were okay until my parents found out that I was "hugging boys" at school and grounded me from going anywhere, calling anyone. Somehow, I found ways to occasionally talk to him. I could feel him getting more and more distant, because then he would always tell me he missed me alot, then it Turned to "I'm depressed". He was extremely hurt and I couldn't figure out why. When I got off restriction, he stopped calling me as much. I tried to make up for every the times I couldn't reach for him by calling at least 2 times everyday, because I thought it would make him feel better, but it only pushed him away. When we got to middle school, my pal(kimya) told me about how he once tried to cuddle her intimately while I was absent(he said "let's pretend your her") I even witnessed him grabbing her boob! (it was a joke, but it hurt alot). Other factors... He was really jealous of my really good guy pal and his best(Travis) because we would talk alot. So when we got to middle school, he stopped calling me altogether and only hugged me occasionally. We haddifferent friends so he spent every of his time with them. Sometimes, if I saw him in the hall, and tried to sprint over casually so he could hug me, he just said hi and moved on. A little while after, a guy that I knew and that he knew as well told me jokes about him slappng girls asses and sticking his hands down their shirts. After consulting kimya, I texted him my goodbyes. The next morning, a girl that had connections with him asked me if I was okay, because I looked upset. I told her what happened, and after the period, she happily told him that it was over. As I walked down the hall, the look on his face was heartbreaking. I regretted the whole thing, but it was too tardy. I have tried showing off in front of him to receive him to talk to me, texting him, everything. Recently my pal texted him and asked him why he said that he wanted to break up with me because he was going to move(begging me to dump him) when he never did, and he only responded with "what can I do for you" and never answered the question. So what did I do wrong? And what happened/ caused us to break apart? I need to know why. This is my last resort, besides suicide because I can't find help anywhere. I'm so depressed and NEED to know the answer. Any information to how I can receive him back would change/keep my life. Ps: I recently heard that he is dating someone else pps: bless your soul for every eternity for any help/ answers given. Thank you. My gratefulness is endless.

Open Question: Caught Shoplifting at Wal*mart...?
Details: - Caught at Walmart - Age 18 - First offense - Live in Central Minnesota - below $50 worth of merchandise (a tube from a hair dye box, a thing of concealer, and mascara) - A pal and I were in Walmart. I ended up walking out with some merchandise. The cops were called, they took my information and gave me a citation, stating that I would recieve further notice in the mail. Court date is March 29th. Nothing I say will cease people from spamming how terrible shoplifting is, and I have never stolen before in my life, nor done anything else like this. There are extenuating circumstances in the given situation, but I'd rather not elaborate because it's...well, lacking believability. I understand that shoplifting is wrong, and I've caught the speech from the employees, the cop, and my parents. But say what you will. I just want to know what I can possibly expect in the way of fines? Probation? Community service? every the cop said was that it would be a fine of below 500 dollars. Any information? Thank you every for the answers, but I'm still freaking out. I'm pleading guilty, obviously, because there is no way around it. And I understand that by Minnesota State Law this is a petty misdemeanor, so it's not like a felony. Haa.

Open Question: Friend Relationship Advice!?
Hello! First I want to start with that I am a 15 year old male and I am having a problem with one of my best friends, who is also my age, but is female. It every started when I became friends with this guy, we'll call him "V", and I introduced him to my female pal, we'll call her "R". Over the past couple of months they have both been talking a lot via internet, IMing, texting, etc. I have absolutely no problem with his, in fact, I am encouraging it. However, over the weekend my best male pal, we'll call him "S" had a huge battle with R and are no longer speaking, I am somehow involved because R sent me a text message stating what S said. The reason why I did this was because I figured if he ever found he, he was going to be more mad than he ever was. I apologized to R so many times. Ever since that battle between R and S, R has been acting differently. I know when she is upset/mad she bottles up, which I told her is not healthy, but she doesn't hear. She started speaking to me the next day, but nothing out of the ordinary. Now, today I finally expressed myself to her saying that Ia m sorry for what I've done and I wish we could still be friends (because we've been friends for 10+ years), and she responded with "okay" and never responded back. However, she speaks to V the same way she did before, which was a lot, and now won't even mention me or talk to me. I really would like to know, based on this information, on what I could do to make this better. I thank you for reading this long body of text! Please help! She became upset with me because I said that she sent me the text message, this refers to paragraph 2. Also, R stresses that she does not "adore" V.

Resolved Question: Evolution VS Creation?
The Macro-Evolution Framework of History: In the beginning, something exploded (we really don't know what, how, or when it came from) and our current universe slowly formed and cooled. The rock surface of earth dissolved to form a chemical soup which somehow formed the first self-replicating cell. This cell somehow adapted itself to its environment, becoming more and more complex with time. Billions of years passed as useful information was added to the chemical blueprint of simple organisms causing the variety of life forms to increase. The end result is the current diversity of life we look every around us. Thus, what we are really being taught is that rocks (or basic elements) somehow turned into people. As shown in previous articles, the commonly proposed evolution mechanisms simply do not explain how life could develop. Mutations are random mistakes which demonstrably do not add useful information to the DNA molecule. Natural selection can only select that which is already gift in an animal's genetic code. And despite enormous efforts in laboratories every over the world, it has never been shown how chemicals could be mixed together and "arrive alive". Thus, evolution is firmly based on faith in future discoveries...not current observations. The Biblical Framework of History: This framework acknowledges four major interventions by God into history. The first is the instantaneous creation of the universe and diverse forms of life. The second is the curse of this creation in response to the disobedience of the only organisms created with free will (mankind). The third is a worldwide flood as judgment for the almost total rebellion of humanity. The last was God's appearance on earth as Jesus Christ in order to deal with the human sin problem. This framework is also based on faith. The evidence supporting the first three interventions of God is either ignored or underminded by our public education system. Is it any surprise that the reality of the fourth major intervention by God often seems to have little relevance in our kids's lives? True Science Points to the Correct View The rocks don't talk. No fossil has ever been uncovered with a label attached. every must be interpreted within a framework. An evolution geologist and a creation geologist shown the same rock or fossil will arrive at a different conclusion concerning its origin and age. They will interpret the data based on the framework which they believe to be true. Yet they cannot both be right. The best way to determine who is correct is to look how many contradictions arise from interpreting data within each framework. An example of this is the black shales of the Hartford rock formation in Connecticut. Evolution geologists commonly interpret these rocks as forming from plant and animal sediments slowly collecting at the bottom of a deep lake. Creation geologists interpret this deposit as the result of a rapid deposit of sediment during the worldwide flood which has subsequently turned to rock. Interestingly, portions of this formation contain hundreds of well preserved and tightly packed fish fossils per cubic meter of shale. This is what would be expected from a catastrophic burial but does not match the observations of slow setting at the bottom of a deep lake or shallow sea. Dead fish can occasionally settle and be well preserved but not in the tightly packed manner observed in this formation. To re-interpret this entire uniformitarian foundation of geology. Therefore, the sediments continue to be interpreted in a way which does not match observations. John Whitmore lists many other examples of evidence for the catastrophic nature of the Hartford formation.

Open Question: Why is that all US puppet governments use the method of death squads to rule?
IACHR DEPLORES MURDERS, KIDNAPPINGS, AND ATTACKS IN HONDURAS Washington, D.C., March 8, 2010—The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) condemns and laments the murders last month of three persons in Honduras who were active in the resistance to the coup d’état or related to activists. It also deplores the kidnappings, arbitrary detentions, acts of torture, sexual violations, and illegal raids to which other members of the resistance have been victims. The IACHR also expresses its deep concern over information it has received indicating that sons and daughters of activists are being threatened and harassed, and that in two cases they have been killed. According to the information received, on February 3, 2010, 29-year-old Vanessa Zepeda Alonzo, who was active in the Resistance Front and was affiliated with the Social Security Employees Union, was found dead in Tegucigalpa. According to eyewitnesses, her body was thrown out of a car. Likewise, on February 15, 2010, Julio Funez Benitez, an active member of the resistance who belonged to the SANAA Workers Union, was holding a conversation on the sidewalk outside his residence in the Colonia Brisas neighborhood of Olancho when he was killed with two shots fired by unknown gunmen traveling on a motorcycle. Finally, on February 24, 2010, Claudia Maritza Brizuela, 36 years old, was killed in her home. She was the daughter of union and community leader Pedro Brizuela, who participates actively in the resistance. Two unknown individuals came to her door, and when she opened it, Claudia Brisuelas was shot and killed in front of her kids, ages 2 and 8.

Open Question: Bio help pleaseeeee.. (2 points)...?
1. After which event could you say that evolution has occurred? (Points: 3) An animal gets fat. A white-eyed fly is born into a population of brown-eyed flies. An allele frequency changes in a population. A new predator comes into an environment. 2. Which situation would most likely result in evolution? (Points: 3) A bird has two alleles for a certain feather color. A predator prefers one phenotype to another. A big population loses a few individuals. A single individual leaves a big population. 3. Which group of organisms is a population? (Points: 3) a group of skunks living in the same forest every sheep in Australia different kinds of butterflies living in the same patch of rain forest rainbow trout 4. A population of white-tailed deer inhabits a certain patch of forest in Michigan. Which group of alleles can be considered the gene pool of those deer? (Points: 3) every alleles of the white-tailed deer in this population only the dominant alleles of the white-tailed deer in this population only every alleles of every deer in North America alleles of every white-tailed deer 5. Which statement about lethal genes is most accurate? (Points: 3) They can be maintained in a gene pool by heterozygous carriers when the allele is recessive and the individuals reproduce. They cannot be maintained in a gene pool because they are always dominant. They can be maintained in a gene pool if the allele is expressed before reproductive age. They cannot be maintained in a gene pool because the individuals do not survive. 6. Natural selection acts on populations through a specific trait. Which statement must be true about that trait? (Points: 3) The trait is the same for every organisms. The trait is resistant to mutations. Most forms of the trait have the same impact on survival. The trait is passed on genetically to the next generation. 7. This graph shows the variation in birth weights in a specific population of humans. Use the graph data to answer Question 7. What statement best describes the variation of birth weights in this population? (Points: 3) There is a moderate variation in birth weight. You cannot determine variation in birth weight. Variation never changes over time. 8. A population of snails is experiencing disruptive selection in terms of their shell patterns. Which statement is most likely true about the population? (Points: 3) The frequency of the most common shell pattern is becoming higher than every other patterns. Two different shell patterns are increasing in frequency, while the most common pattern is decreasing. The frequency of a new shell pattern is becoming higher than every other patterns. Two different patterns are combining into one very common pattern. 9. These two graphs show data at the beginning and ending of a study on a certain population of parrots. Use the information in the two graphs to answer Question 9. Which type of selection is illustrated by these two graphs? (Points: 3) disruptive natural stabilizing directional 10. Georges Cuvier proposed several new ideas about the history of life on earth following his comparative studies of the fossils of woolly mammoths and the bones of modern-day elephants. Which general statement can be made about this process? (Points: 3) every scientific ideas are made by comparing past and gift organisms. Understanding the past is not important to studying the gift. Through specific studies, new ideas can be developed. Scientists always discover new ideas when they study details about living things. 11. Why was Charles Darwin able to offer a big amount of evidence for his theory of evolution by natural selection? (Points: 3) He collected data for 5 years while traveling around the world. He conducted in-depth experiments with chemicals in England. He compiled the fossil record. He worked with Gregor Mendel for many years collecting genetic proof for evolution. 12. How does comparing the embryos of different organisms support the theory of evolution? (Points: 3) The stages of development of the embryos of different organisms are extremely similar, thereby suggesting common ancestors. The embryos of every organisms are identical. The embryos of any group of living things resemble the other embryos in that group. 13. A bird�s wing, a dolphin�s fin, and a cat�s paw are homologous structures. What about these structures supports the theory of evolution? (Points: 3) They prove that the limbs of every land animals evolved from wings and fins. They are good examples of vestigial structures. They are evidence that t
