Answer:

The correct answer will be option-B.

Explanation:

The mutations take place in the nucleotide base pairs due to the substitution, addition or deletion of the base in the sequence.

These mutations could prove harmful or useful to the organism depending on the niche it is living.  These mutations become established in the population only after they are transferred from the parents to the offsprings through the chromosomes of the parents.  

Thus, the mutation must be inherited through the chromosomes of both the parents and Option-B is the correct answer.

<span>The correct answer is A, B and D. Biogeochemical cycles are central to the ecology of earth system. They make the essentail elements accessible and available for the organisms, and maintain their levels, so that the ecology is ot disrupted. The elements move through abiotic and biotic factors, in these cycles, and a state of equilibrium is maintained n the ecosystem. The carbon dioxide levels are responsible fr the temperature of the earth. If Carbon cycles would not have existed, then there would have been a disruption in maintaining the global temperature. Biogeochemical cycles basically continuously recycles the essential materials, for sustaining the life-forms.</span>

Describe the path an egg from the ovary to the outside of the female body
Elis [28]
The ovaries produce the egg cells, called the ova or oocytes. The oocytes are then transported to the fallopian tube where fertilization by a sperm may occur. The fertilized egg then moves to the uterus, where the uterine lining has thickened in response to the normal hormones of the reproductive cycle.
