Answer:
D
Explanation:
A: to create sex cells of reproduction.
This is the purpose of meiosis: a cell division process. It creates gametes, or sperm and eggs.
B. to provide the cells with food
This would be eating for animals, or photosynthesis for plants. When animals eat, it provides their cells with food. When plants photosynthesize, they create their own food in the form of glucose.
C. To give the cell energy
This would be cellular respiration. It turns food and glucose into usable energy called ATP.
D.
This is the correct choice. Mitosis is cell division, which means it creates new cells. This allows organisms to grow and repair.
Somatic mutations are acquired after birth in non-reproductive cells. These changes occur in only certain cells of the body and can be caused by tobacco use, ultraviolet radiation, viruses, chemicals and age. Acquired mutations are the most common cause of cancer.
Humans experience many somatic mutations over a lifetime, and the human body is normally able to correct most of these changes. This is why there is only a small chance of one mutation causing cancer. It normally takes many mutations over a lifetime to cause cancer. This is why older people are the most likely group to get cancer, as they have had more chances for mutations to build up.
Answer:
C. Photoautotrophs-oxygenic.
Explanation:
LUCA is an abbreviation of the ‘Last Universal Common Ancestor’. The LUCA was a microorganism which lived around 4 billion years ago. The evidence had shown that the LUCA was lived deep underground in hydrothermal vents. These vents were rich in iron-sulphur. It did not use air but made its food from the metal-rich environment surrounding it. It made organic compounds such as ammonia for its metabolism from elements such as hydrogen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen.
