Evolution is caused by genetic mutations that become favorable for survival.
For example if a bird has a mutation that gives it a longer beak and it lives in an environment in which a longer beak lets the bird catch more food- the longer beak becomes a favorable trait.
Now the bird is able to survive “better” thus it lives longer(due to its ability to catch more food). Because of this it reproduces more and passes the trait on to its offspring.
Overtime this mutation takes over the population of birds in the area.

Using the picture below, what is the BEST question that a student could ask that would help determine which aquatic biome this is depicting?
A. x
Does the temperature of the water affect the salinity?
B. x
Is there a variation in water pressure throughout the day?
C. x
Is there a fluctuation in water salinity throughout the day?
D. right
Is there variation in water temperature throughout the day?
If the Na+ voltage-gated channels in a muscle cell open, the Na (sodium) ions rush inside the muscle cell and makes the cell more positive as Na ions carry positive charge on it. Due to the entry of positively charged ions inside the cell, the cell becomes less negative and more positive. This is called depolarization of cell.

Answer:
Before answer this question, you need to know what is the half-life of a compound, the term half-life is defined as the time it takes for one-half of the atoms of a radioactive material to disintegrate. Knowing this you know that has passed half of the half-time, so you should probably have 25% of the original amount of 235U. This problem may be tricky because it says half of the time to reach the half-time, but 50% of the compound will be present in 750 million years after the death of the specimen.
