Answer:
Explanation:
1 Long term exposure to harmful genotoxic chemicals or ionizing radiation can cause changes in the base sequence of DNA.Chemicals might induce DNA mutations, such as polycyclic hydrocarbons (fumes found in oil stations, or smoke from a tobacco cigarette), intercalating agents such as Ethidium Bromide (carcinogen), but also radiations such as UV-radiation (C and T bases are most vulnerable and would bind to identical bases unstead of their
2 Genetic changes that are described as de novo (new) mutations can be either hereditary or somatic. In some cases, the mutation occurs in a person’s egg or sperm cell but is not present in any of the person’s other cells. In other cases, the mutation occurs in the fertilized egg shortly after the egg and sperm cells unite. (It is often impossible to tell exactly when a de novo mutation happened.) As the fertilized egg divides, each resulting cell in the growing embryo will have the mutation. De novo mutations may explain genetic disorders in which an affected child has a mutation in every cell in the body but the parents do not, and there is no family history of the disorder.
Somatic mutations that happen in a single cell early in embryonic development can lead to a situation called mosaicism. These genetic changes are not present in a parent’s egg or sperm cells, or in the fertilized egg, but happen a bit later when the embryo includes several cells. As all the cells divide during growth and development, cells that arise from the cell with the altered gene will have the mutation, while other cells will not. Depending on the mutation and how many cells are affected, mosaicism may or may not cause health problems.

Answer:
C.
Explanation:
"Cellular respiration, the process by which organisms combine oxygen with foodstuff molecules, diverting the chemical energy in these substances into life-sustaining activities and discarding, as waste products, carbon dioxide and water."
Embryonic stem cells can become all cell types of the body because they are pluripotent. Adult stem cells are thought to be limited to differentiating into different cell types of their tissue of origin. Embryonic stem cells can be grown relatively easily in culture.
Chimpanzees have been trained to communicate with humans through sign language. Chimpanzees have relatively large brains and as such have complex social relationships and use simple tools. They can be taught to use sign language and some researchers suggest that they can communicate via this medium at the level of a 4 to 5 year old human.
