B. The trait is resistant to mutations
C. Most forms of the trait have the same impact on survival
D. The trait is passed on genetically to the next generation

Describe how having dark skin may have provided an advantage in survival and reproduction to people thousands of years ago in so
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Recent studies have shown that dark skin colour was developed in the past for protection against cancer. Scientists claim that in the past natural selection favoured humans having dark colour as compared to humans having a fair colour. This is because humans having a darker colour produced more melanin which protected them from ultraviolet radiation. As a result, this skin colour protected more against skin cancer. Hence, Having a darker skin colour protected in survival and reproduction to people thousands of years ago.

Katen [24]
<h2>Meselson and Stahl conducted an experiment to determine the correct proposed methods of DNA replication was semi-conservative. the three proposed models for DNA replication are semi-conservative, conservative, and dispersive.</h2>

Explanation:

In Semi-conservative replication model, the two strands of DNA uncoil from each other. It perform with the original strand and a new strand.

In Conservative replication model, DNA replication didn't open at all, but the parent strands remains undamaged by creating a new and separate  molecule that consists of two new strands.

In Dispersive replication model, DNA replication results in two DNA molecules that consists of both parental and daughter DNA.

He demonstrated that semi-conservative DNA replication is an universal mechanism allocated by all organisms on Earth.
