In animals and plants, there are two pairs of chromosomes - one set from a male and the other set from a female. But occasionally, the original fertilized cell doesn't quite divide correctly and more than two sets arises. The fertilized cell continues to divide with the result that all the cells have the extra set of chromosomes. This happens much oftener in plants and the plant will be sterile and can't form seeds.
Answer:
For one to form, there needs to be warm ocean water and moist, humid air in the region. When humid air is flowing upward at a zone of low pressure over warm ocean water, the water is released from the air as creating the clouds of the storm. As it rises, the air in a hurricane rotates.
Explanation:
In short pressure zones over warm ocean

Phenotypic variations in genetically identical organisms that grow in the same controlled environment may be due to mutation.
<h3>Mutation</h3>
This refers to a sudden change to the DNA sequence of living organisms.
When the DNA base sequence of organisms changes, the effect is shown in the morphology of organisms.
For organisms that are genetically identical but grow in different environments, phenotypic variations might exist as a result of environmentally acquired traits during the struggle to adapt to their environments.
In the same environment, however, genetically identical organisms are not expected to be phenotypically different, unless a mutation to the DNA of one has occurred.

An example of a population in which evolution could take place in a relatively short period of time could be pathogenic bacteria exposed to antibiotics.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
Evolution if takes place within a short period of time say the next generation that is called as micro evolution. This is caused when a specific organism exposed in a different environment at once modifies its genes to suit the new environment. This phenomenon can be very well seen in the pathogenic bacteria which are exposed to antibiotics.
When an antibiotic is prescribed to bacteria initially it nullifies its effect by destroying it. When continuously exposed to a certain antibiotic some bacteria dies but there are few which becomes resistant to it and survives. This on the other hand multiplies producing a generation that can’t be touched by the antibiotic.
