Explanation:

B) it is capable of amino acid production.

Proteins are structural support molecules comprised of long chains of amino acids joined via peptide (CONH) bonds; these are 20 specific units that are arranged into several macromolecules. Amino acids are absorbed through digestion and are incorporated into the body’s cells to make up organs muscles signal molecules and an alternative energy source.

Basic makeup: C, H, O, N, S; polar C, O double bonds and N-H bonding

Glucose is the favored source of carbon (over others like xylose) for many organisms as it can be immediately processed for energy generation in cellular metabolic processes like respiration. This energy produced in the form of ATP is used for other reactions involved in growth and development. These include the urea and citric acid cycle where all amino acids (except eight) are produced as reaction byproducts.

Individuals in a species have genetic variation that can be passed on to their offspring

grandymaker [24]

Answer: Genetic variation within a species can result from a few different sources. Mutations, the changes in the sequences of genes in DNA, are one source of genetic variation. ... As a result, the tree-colored moths are more likely to survive, reproduce, and pass on their genes.

Gametic cells

Mutations on somatic cells cannot be passed down to offspring. Rather mutations born on gametic cells are what can be passed down. This is because gametes are the cells involved in fertilization to form zygote that develops into individual organisms.

Explanation:

Mutation on gametic cells can occur within the time from the pre-gametic cell to the formation of a mature gamete such as sperm or egg.

Radiation from nuclear reactor accidents in Japan in April 2011, may damage the cell of the body both somatic and gametic. But only those in the gametic cells are passed down Children born to these Japanese people. Radiation causes double-stranded breaks in DNA that are hard to repair by repair mechanisms in the cell leading to mutations.
