Pick one of the following genetic variations that have occurred in human evolution. Then pick one of the three causes of genetic

variation (meiosis, replication errors, environmental impacts) and make a claim as to why you think that particular cause of genetic variation was the cause of the change. Use supporting research and/or data to support your claim.

Smaller teeth and jaws are due to genetic variation, which occurred by mutations (errors in DNA replication) and were selected to fill a suitable niche.

<h3>What is evolution?</h3>

Evolution is the mechanism of change of one species to adapt given environment, whereas mutations are the raw material for evolution.

In this regard, scientific evidence supports the fact that jaws evolved to become shorter in humans and thus adapt to a pastoral lifestyle.

In conclusion, smaller teeth and jaws emerged by mutations and were selected to fill a suitable niche.

Identify which function group monosaccharides have in the greatest abundance
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer;

-Hydroxyl groups.

-They have multiple hydroxyl groups.

Explanation;

-Monosaccharides are the simplest form of sugars found in common food items such as honey, cane sugar, fruits. They are the building blocks of other carbohydrates (disaccharides and polysaccharides).

-The are formed by three elements and three elements only: Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H) and Oxygen (O). Monosaccharides have two broad classifications on the basis of the functional group present in them, that is; aldose (contains aldehyde group) and ketose (contains a keto group).

-Monosaccharides contain multiple hydroxyl groups, and are responsible for the hydrophillic property of monosaccharides allowing them to dissolve in water easily.

How are food chains and food webs related
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

A food web consists of many food chains. A food chain only follows just one path as animals find food. eg: A hawk eats a snake, which has eaten a frog, which has eaten a grasshopper, which has eaten grass. A food web shows the many different paths plants and animals are connected.
