What is their source? 
- they could be a part of a marketing scam 
- the key question is: how do they know? 
- <span> Who produced it and what background do they have?
- what other studies could the group have produced?</span>

Is the main point of the claim proven by evidence? 
- In order to figure out if something is reliable or not, you have to ask whether it makes sense and whether the conclusions were proven
- do the conclusions follow logically from what has been cited, or are they being drawn from evidence that doesn't support them at all? 

Do the sources have a bias? 
- That<span> doesn’t necessarily mean what they have to say isn’t reliable
- But think about whether they are a witness to facts or are just describing their opinion

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Natural selection causes change in allele frequencies within a population.          

So option A is correct one.

Explanation:

Natural selection generally  work  on an organism’s phenotype, or observable features. Phenotype is often largely a product of genotype (the alleles, or gene versions, the organism carries). When a phenotype produced by certain alleles helps organisms survive and reproduce better than their peers, natural selection can increase the frequency of the helpful alleles from one generation to the next – that is, it can cause microevolution.

One theory of aging that makes apparent commonsense postulates that organisms have only so much energy to expend in a lifetime.
Mashutka [201]

Given what we know, we can confirm that the basic idea resulting from these studies is that a creature's metabolism is related to its lifespan.

<h3 /><h3>How is metabolism related to lifespan?</h3>

From the studies done and the comparison of the lifespan of certain species in relation to their metabolic rates, scientists have noticed that <u>metabolism</u> and <u>lifespan </u>are inversely proportional. The <u>slower </u>the metabolism of an organism, the <u>longer </u>that organism can live.

Therefore, we can confirm that the basic idea is that a creature's metabolism is inversely proportional to its lifespan, meaning that the faster the metabolism, the shorter the lifespan of the creature in question.

all the thymine pairs with adenine, therefore there is the same number of adenine and thymine bases and the same percentage

so we have 28%thymine and 28% adenine

100-28-28=44% left

this 44% is guanine and cytosine. All of the guanine pairs with cytosine and all of the cytosine pairs with guanine so we have 44/2=22% cytosine and guanine

composition:

28%adenine

28%thymine

22%guanine

22%cytosine
