The correct option is B.
The field of science is very dynamic and it thrives on discovery of new evidences. When new evidence are found for a particular phenomenon, the existing phenomenon has to be adjusted to fit the new discovery. Air pollution was once named to be responsible for global cooling because enough evidence was not available then to prove otherwise but now overwhelming evidences show that pollution is responsible for global warming.<span />
Somatic mutations can be passed on. B is the correct answer
The cane toad was a failure as a biological control method in Australia because:
-The greyback beetle it was supposed to be eating fed at the top of the sugarcane stalks (which were 6-8 meters in height). Cane toads cannot fly or climb and therefore couldnt feed on the beetles.
-The beetles were out during the daytime, and cane toads feed at night.
-The two species are not seasonally compatible (aren't in the same place at the same time of year).
-The toads needed moist conditions to survive, and so moved away from where they were supposed to be.
-The cane toad eats many native species and often out-competes native species for food and breeding sites, leading to the decline of natives.
-Breeding habits made the cane toads a very invasive species.
