Answer:
B) Sea level rises as Earth becomes warmer and glaciers melt.
Answer:
A trait is an aspect of the whole or of a certain portion of the developmental pattern of the organism. An adaptive trait is, then, an aspect of the developmental pattern which facilitates the survival and/or reproduction of its carrier in a certain succession of environments.
Explanation:
Answer: White blood cells form to fight off cell infections.
Explanation:
1. Your body produces white blood cells which fight against infected cells, depends on what type of cell it is and how infected it is.
2. The immune response to a viral infection is primarily generated by a type of white blood cell called lymphocytes; cells that are mostly localized in ‘lymphoid tissues’ such as the lymph nodes or tonsils. However, the number of lymphocytes that can recognize and react against any individual type of virus is initially very small. This is particularly true for a novel virus such as SARS-CoV-2, which people have never encountered before. In order to produce an effective immune response, the small number of lymphocytes that can recognize a virus must become more abundant. Even though lymphocytes proliferate quickly it still takes several days before there are sufficient cells available to fight back against the infection. During this period the virus may also be spreading rapidly, so there is a race between the virus and the immune system that may determine the final outcome, in terms of recovery.
Carbohydrates, polymers, proteins, and nucleic acids.
These are, well, large organic molecules that are synthesized from multiple identical subunits, as questioned above.

Answer:
a. most genes encode one polypeptide and can be operationally defined by the complementation test
Explanation:
Genes are the stretch of DNA that code for specific polypeptides. In general, one gene codes for the only polypeptide.
Genes are defined by complementation tests which in turn tell if two mutations have occurred in the alleles of the same gene or different gene.
For the purpose, an organism with the homozygous genotype for one recessive mutation is crossed with an organism having the homozygous recessive genotype for another mutation.
If the two mutations are in the same gene, the progeny would show the mutant phenotype. On the other hand, if two mutations are in different genes, the progeny would exhibit normal phenotype.
